dc.description.abstractIn this thesis, a performance evaluation of two third generation (3G) wide-band Code Division Multiple Access (W-CDMA) systems will be presented. The two systems considered are a single carrier direct sequence (DS) and a multi-carrier (MC)-CDMA. Single carrier DS-CDMA is simply an extension of the present IS-95 digital communication standard with the major difference being a five MHz bandwidth as opposed to the current 1.25 MHz bandwidth. The multicarrier system, on the other hand, uses a technique by which the spread data sequences modulate several carriers for transmission. This has the effect of allowing the receiver to contain a relatively simple correlator for each carrier as opposed to using a RAKE receiver. It is seen that the multicarrier system is more robust to fading and partial-band interference.en
