Abstract

In this paper, a multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) downlink mobile communication system employing pre-rake and dual transmit diversity is proposed. It combines high spectral efficiency with an immunity to channel dispersion and fading. It also ensures small size, cost and power consumption of the terminal. Theoretical and simulation results for the system under consideration are obtained. Depicted results show appreciable improvements of the proposed system over those previously known.
