The concepts of frequency domain equalization represent the most powerful strategies to combat time dispersion caused by multipath propagation in broadband wireless communication systems. Performing equalization in the frequency domain allows for a computational efficient implementation because the effort grows significantly lower with the bandwidth compared to equalization in the time domain. Two well known frequency domain concepts exist: OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) and SC/ FDE (Single Carrier Transmission with Frequency Domain Equalization). While the interest on OFDM was almost overwhelming, the interest on SC/FDE has been growing rapidly only recently. A primary topic of this work is the extension and alternative formulation of the SC/FDE system as it is usually understood. Further more the basic concept is characterised in terms of equalization strategies, higher order modulation schemes, synchronization, channel estimation, channel coding or front-end implementation effort. Finally an overall comparison of OFDM and SC/FDE is carried out, characterising advantages and disadvantages.

The benefits and success of multi-carrier (MC) modulation on one side and the flexibility offered by the spread spectrum (SS) technique on the other side have motivated many researchers to investigate the combination of both techniques since 1993. This combination known as multi-carrier spread spectrum (MC-SS) benefits from the advantages of both systems and offers high flexibility, high spectral efficiency, simple detection strategies, narrow-band interference rejection capability, etc. The basic principle of this combination is straightforward: The spreading is performed as direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) but instead of transmitting the chips over a single carrier, several sub-carriers are employed. The MC modulation and demodulation can easily be realized in the digital domain by performing IFFT and FFT operations. The separation of the users’ signals can be performed in the code domain. MC-SS systems can perform the spreading in frequency direction, which allows for simple signal detection strategies. Since 1993, MC-SS has been deeply studied and new alternative solutions have been proposed. Meanwhile, deep system analysis and comparison with DS-CDMA have been performed that show the superiority of MC-CDMA. The aim of Multi-Carrier Spread-Spectrum is to edit the ensemble of the newest contributions and research results in this new field that have been presented during the 5th International Workshop on Multi-Carrier Spread-Spectrum (MC-SS 2005), held in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany.
