WCDMA in GSM

Abstract: Multiple Access Techniques is the emerging techniques for the nextgeneration (3G) wireless communication systems. Multiple access techniques hasbeen designed to add features such as multimedia capabilities, high data rates andmulti-rate services to the existing wireless communication framework. The datarates proposed 2, 3 are 2Mbps indoor, 384 Kbps pedestrian, and 144 Kbpsvehicular. Several standards for third generation systems have been proposed anddeveloped by different industrial committees in countries such as the U.S, Europeand Japan. All the standards have accepted in one form or another as the multipleaccess method for wireless communications requirements.In this project, we study the implementation issues involved for one of theproposed multiuser channel estimation and detection algorithms for base-stations.It was found that these proposed algorithms for multiuser channel estimation anddetection have different processing and precision requirements.
