Method for generating complex quasi-orthogonal code and apparatus and method for spreading channel data using the quasi-orthogonal code in CDMA communication system

摘要

A method for generating a complex quasi-orthogonal code for channel spreading in a CDMA communication system is disclosed. The method comprises generating an M-sequence having a length N and a specific sequence having a good full correlation property with the M-sequence; generating a predetermined number of other specific sequences by circularly shifting said specific sequence; generating a predetermined number of other M-sequences by circularly shifting said M-sequence, and column permutating the circularly shifted specific sequences in a same method as a column permutation method for converting the generated M-sequences to Walsh orthogonal codes to generate candidate masks; generating quasi-orthogonal code representatives by operating the candidate masks and the Walsh orthogonal codes having the same length as the mask candidates; and selecting quasi-orthogonal code candidates satisfying a partial correlation between the Walsh orthogonal codes out of the generated quasi-orthogonal code representatives and a partial correlation between different quasi-orthogonal codes, and selecting masks pertinent to generating the selected quasi-orthogonal codes.
