Abstract

In this contribution the asymptotic signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) performance of multicarrier direct-sequence code-division multiple-access systems employing time-frequency-domain spreading, i.e., of the TF/MC DS-CDMA systems, is studied, when separate minimum mean-square error multiuser detection (MMSE-MUD) is considered. The separate MMSE-MUD detects signals first in the time (T)-domain and then in the frequency (F)-domain. Based on random matrix theory, closed-form expressions for the asymptotic SINR of the TF/MC DS-CDMA systems using separate MMSE-MUD is derived, when communicating over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. The closed-form expressions show that the asymptotic SINR performance is only depended on the T- and F-domain user load factors as well as noise variance. Hence, they are beneficial to evaluation. Furthermore, our simulation and numerical results show that in most cases the asymptotic SINR can provide a good approximation to the SINR achieved by realistic TF/MC DS-CDMA systems employing separate MMSE-MUD.
