Coherent Detection of the Forward Link
Coherent detection requires that the carrier signal used in the transmitter and the receiver are
perfectly matched in both frequency and phase In cdmaOne systems, the Forward link detection in the mobile is coherent (Forward link is BTS>>>mobile.)
Non-coherent Detection of the Reverse Link of IS-95
Non-coherent detection refers to the case where the phase information is not available to the
receiver In cdmaOne systems, the Reverse link is a non-coherent link since the phase information
is not available As a result, the detection process at the Base Station becomes non-coherent.
(Reverse link is mobile>>>BTS.)
Note: For CDMA2000 Radio Configuration RC-3 to RC-6, a Pilot is provided on the Reverse link and therefore coherent demodulation can be employed.

Correlation
Correlation is a measure of similarity between any two arbitrary signals It is computed by
multiplying the two signals and then summing (integration) the result over a defined time window For example:
z Figure (a) — the two signals are identical and therefore their correlation is 1 or 100%.
z Figure (b) — the two signals are uncorrelated and therefore knowing one of them does not provide any information on the other.

Figure of Merit in Digital Systems
The primary measure of performance in digital systems is the ratio of bit energy (E b ) to noise
density (N 0 ): E b /N 0 Unlike analog signals that are power signals, digital signals are energy signals.
A useful relationship is obtained by relating E b /N 0 to the signal to noise ratio:

Cellular PCS Fixed Wireless
Cellular
Commonly viewed as wireless service to mobile subscribers in the 800 MHz band.
PCS
Wireless service for mobile subscribers in the 1900 MHz band.
Fixed Wireless (Wireless Local Loop)
Wireless service for residential and office subscribers using fixed terminals Fixed wireless
services are provided in either the 800 MHz or 1900 MHz bands.
Trang 6Cellular Channels
The FCC has allocated spectrum for use by cellular service providers The allocated spectrum is divided into channels that are separated by 30 KHz This is a direct result of the analog
requirement for 30 KHz to support a single subscriber using FM modulation.
Each CDMA channel is approximately 1.25 MHz There is no guard band required between
adjacent CDMA channels However, a guard band is established between a CDMA system and any other system.
Preferred Channels
Each system operator of the cellular band (A, B) has a Primary and a Secondary Channel.
These are 283 and 691 for the A carrier and 384 and 777 for the B carrier.

AND Function
The “AND Function” figure depicts a two-input AND gate and its corresponding truth table.
A and B denote the inputs to the gate, while Y denotes its output The AND operation (or function)
is simply defined by the equation:
The AND gate outputs a logic “1” only when both inputs A and B are logic “1” as well The output
of the AND gate is zero if any of its inputs assumes the logic “0” state Understanding AND gate operation will prove useful in the discussion that follows.
XOR Operation
The “XOR Function” figure depicts a two-input XOR gate and its corresponding truth table.
A and B denote the inputs, while Y denotes its output The XOR operation (or function) is simply defined by the equation:
The XOR gate produces a one when the two inputs are at opposite levels When the total number of ones at the inputs is odd, the result of XORing them is “1” Understanding XOR operation is

them results in an equal number

cdma university Generation of Orthogonal Codes
• Repeat – Right – Below
Creating Orthogonal Functions
Orthogonal codes are easily generated by starting with a seed of 0, repeating the 0 horizontally and vertically, and then complementing the 0 diagonally This process is continued with the newly- generated block until the desired codes with the proper length are generated.
Sequences created in this way are referred to as Walsh codes.

In orthogonal spreading, each encoded symbol is XORed with all 64 chips of the Walsh code For example, in the figure a symbol of value “1” is orthogonally spread with Walsh code 59, thus
yielding a 64-chip representation of the symbol.
