Abstract

Although pseudo-orthogonal carrier interferometry (PO-CI) multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) could transmit doubled data streams, it highly depends on the modulation type. Through theoretical inter-code interference analysis, this paper puts forward that PO-CI/MC-CDMA systems could be de-spread ideally only with BPSK modulation. When complex modulation types are considered, PO-CI/MC-CDMA fails in de-spreading while simulation results of QPSK and QAM demonstrate this limitation. However, pulse amplitude modulations (PAMs) are found to be more suitable for the systems. The acceptable bit error rate (BER) performance of high rank PAMs is revealed by simulation too. Therefore, if the spectrum efficiency requisition is high, PAM is proposed to be the optimal modulation type for PO-CI/MC-CDMA systems.
