Abstract

Orthogonal transmultiplexers have been successfully utilized for multiuser communications. They are of the FDMA type in their most common version. The transmultiplexers using frequency selective PR-QMFs as their user codes were reported in the literature. This approach conflicts with the requirements of a CDMA communications system. We introduce novel spread spectrum PR-QMF codes, wherein the orthogonality is distributed over both time and frequency domains. It is shown that the proposed multivalued spread spectrum PR-QMF codes with minimized auto and cross-correlation properties outperform the conventional binary Gold codes in CDMA communication scenarios considered in the article
