needed to convert linear convolution to circular convolution.

SC/FDE
SC/FDE delivers performance similar to OFDM with essentially
the same overall complexity, even for long channel delay.
SC/FDE has advantage over OFDM in terms of:
Low PAPR.
Robustness to spectral null.
Less sensitivity to carrier frequency offset.
Disadvantage to OFDM is that channel-adaptive subcarrier bit
and power loading is not possible.

Single Carrier FDMA
SC-FDMA is a new multiple access technique.
Utilizes single carrier modulation, DFT-spread orthogonal frequency
multiplexing, and frequency domain equalization.
It has similar structure and performance to OFDMA.
SC-FDMA is currently adopted as the uplink multiple access
scheme in 3GPP LTE.

SC-FDMA and OFDMA
Similarities
Block-based modulation and use of CP.
Divides the transmission bandwidth into smaller subcarriers.
Channel inversion/equalization is done in the frequency domain.
SC-FDMA is regarded as DFT-precoded or DFT-spread OFDMA.
Dissimilarities
Lower transmit peak power.
Equalization performance.
Multi-carrier MIMO receiver algorithm.
39
SC-FDMA and DS-CDMA
In terms of bandwidth expansion, SC-FDMA is very similar to
DS-CDMA system using orthogonal spreading codes.
Both spread narrowband data into broader band.
Time symbols are compressed into chips after modulation.
Spreading gain (processing gain) is achieved.

Channel gain
Channel-Dependent Scheduling
Assign subcarriers to a user in good channel condition.
Two subcarrier mapping schemes have advantages over each
other.
Distributed: Frequency diversity.
Localized: Frequency selective gain with CDS.
CDS is a scheme to find an optimal set of subcarriers that are
allocated to each user that maximizes some utility based on
each users channel response.

Frame Structure
Two radio frame structures defined.
Frame structure type 1 (FS1): FDD.
Frame structure type 2 (FS2): TDD.
A radio frame has duration of 10 ms.
A resource block (RB) spans 12 subcarriers over a slot
duration of 0.5 ms. One subcarrier has bandwidth of 15 kHz,
thus 180 kHz per RB.

(TxD).
SM
Unitary precoding based scheme with codebook based feedback
from user.
Multiple codewords (up to two).
TxD: SFBC and CDD (Cyclic Delay Diversity).

UL physical signals
Reference signal (RS)
Available modulation for data channel
QPSK, 16-QAM, and 64-QAM
Single user MIMO not supported in Release 8.
But it is addressed in Release 10.
Multi-user collaborative MIMO supported.

UL Reference Signal
Two types of UL RS
Demodulation (DM) RS Narrowband.
Sounding RS: Used for UL resource scheduling Broadband.
RS based on Zadoff-Chu CAZAC (Constant Amplitude Zero
Auto-Correlation) polyphase sequence
CAZAC sequence: Constant amplitude, zero circular auto-
correlation, flat frequency response, and low circular cross-
correlation between two different sequences.
