Performance Analysis of Equalization Techniques for MC-CDMA Systems

Abstract

Nowadays in mobile communication systems, very high bit rates are very essential for transmitting the data and to provide good service for a digital network. This high bit rate leads to Inter symbol Interference (ISI) problems. MC-CDMA technique plays a major role in eliminating these interference problems. In order to compensate this ISI problem, a very effective equalization technique is required. This paper presents the performance analysis of Equalization techniques for an MC-CDMA system which uses BPSK modulation in the presence of Additive white Gaussian Noise (AWGN) over Rayleigh Fading Channel. The analysis is simulated with the help of MATLAB software.
