Rate-Adaptive Coded Multiuser OFDM for Downlink Wireless Systems

  • Chapter
Multi-Carrier Spread-Spectrum & Related Topics

Abstract

A multiuser OFDM system using rate-adaptive codes is described and proposed for the wireless downlink. The code rate is adaptively modified according to the number of active users. The system offers enhanced error protection at partial load. As a result, the bit error rate is reduced and less transmit power is required, reducing the interference level at other cells.
