METHOD FOR SPREADING A PLURALITY OF DATA SYMBOLS ONTO SUBCARRIERS OF A CARRIER SIGNAL

摘要

A method for spreading a plurality ( M ) of data symbols (d s ) onto subcarriers ( N ) of a carrier signal for a transmission in a transmission system (400) provides a data vector ( d ), comprising the plurality ( M ) of data symbols. The provided data vector ( d ) is transformed, and based on the transformed data vector ( q ) and a spreading matrix ( U ) subsequent to the transform, a spread data vector ( w ) is being created, having a length, which corresponds to the number ( N ) of the subcarriers.
