Lecture 2 Outline: EE360: Multiuser Wireless Systems and Networks

This lecture covers bandwidth sharing techniques, multiuser detection, random access, and multiuser channel capacity in wireless systems. Key points discussed include: 1) Bandwidth sharing can occur through frequency division, time division, code division, space division, or hybrid techniques to allocate resources to multiple users. 2) Multiuser detection techniques can separate and subtract signals to mitigate interference between users. 3) Random access techniques like Aloha are used for bursty data transmission but perform poorly under heavy loads. Scheduling and hybrid methods are better for streaming data. 4) Multiuser channel capacity determines the fundamental limits on achievable data rates based on factors like bandwidth, SINR, channel characteristics, and

RANDOM ACCESS TECHNIQUES
7C29822.038-Cimini-9/97
Random Access and Scheduling
Dedicated channels wasteful for data
Use statistical multiplexing
Random Access Techniques
Aloha (Pure and Slotted)
Carrier sensing
Typically include collision detection or avoidance
Poor performance in heavy loading
Reservation protocols
Resources reserved for short transmissions (overhead)
Hybrid Methods: Packet-Reservation Multiple Access
Retransmissions used for corrupted data
Often assumes corruption due to a collision, not channel

Main Points
Orthogonal techniques (TD, FD, CD with
orthogonal codes) channelize resources
No interference between users
Semiorthogonal techniques introduce interference
Interference can be removed via MUD
This is optimal from a capacity perspective
Random access techniques used for bursty data
Poor performance in heavy loading
Scheduling and hybrid techniques used in streaming data
Capacity dictates fundamental channel rate limits
Also provides insight into practical design
