Abstract

This paper describes the comparison between constant envelope root-of-unity (CE-RU) and Nyquist filtered quadriphase sequences for code division multiple access (CDMA) applications. The salient feature of CE-RU filtering is the constant envelope property of the filtered sequences. The preservation of constant envelope of the sequences is desirable in fading environments. It is shown that the correlation properties of CE-RU filtered 4-phase sequences are better than those of Nyquist filtered 4-phase sequences. Preliminary results on bit error rate (BER) performance of CE-RU versus the Nyquist filtered 4-phase sequences on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel are also presented
