ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY AND CODE HOPPING MULTIPLEXING COMMUNICATIONS METHOD

Abstract

An Orthogonal Frequency and Code Hopping Multiplexing (OFCHM) communication method based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) in a wireless communication system in which a plurality of communication channels are synchronized through a single medium. Six types of spreading and hopping methods are included, a method of controlling spreading and hopping depending on channel states, and a method of determining whether radio resources, consisting of subcarriers and orthogonal codewords, are allocated in a hopping manner according to the quality of service in the OFCHM communication method based OFDM. Furthermore, an embodiment employing six multiple array antennas is included. For this purpose, a method of combining a collision comparator and controller for monitoring the operations of a subcarrier group hopping pattern generator and an orthogonal code hopping pattern generator, a multiplexer and data symbol mapper, and the collision of hopping patterns that are composed of subcarriers and orthogonal codewords, and comparing data symbols to be transmitted to second communication stations to determine whether the data symbols collide in a symbol interval, a beam-forming processor for managing the operation of multiple array antennas, and a weighting vector controller is proposed.
