Wrap-up:

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the success of MC-SS 2005!
  • The MC-SS 2005 proceedings are now available, see Springer

We would like to invite you to the upcoming MC-SS 2007!!


This time, the workshop will be held in the pleasant spring time. Check out the website

The Conference Program is available.

Call for Papers of MC-SS 2005:

The success of next generation (beyond 3G) wireless systems will depend on the concepts and technology innovations in architecture and in efficient utilization of the allocated spectrum. Developments of digital communication systems in the past decades have enabled the introduction of efficient modulation and coding techniques for robust and spectrally efficient data, speech, audio and video transmission. Among these are multi-carrier modulation (e.g., OFDM), spread spectrum signaling (e.g., DS-CDMA), and their combination, called Multi-Carrier Spread Spectrum (MC-SS), which are considered as potential candidates for the beyond 3G technology. Therefore, this fifth international workshop on Multi-Carrier Spread-Spectrum will be focused on (but not limited to) the following topics:

  • Broadband beyond 3G cellular systems based on multi-carrier modulation (OFDM), spread spectrum techniques (DS-CDMA) and combinations of both (MC-SS, MC-CDMA, MC-DS-CDMA), covering access/distribution, mobile/fixed, and outdoor/indoor applications;
  • Multi-carrier systems based on new standards like IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.16, ETSI-BRAN HiperMAN, and WiMAX;
  • Efficient coding, modulation, multiplexing, and detection strategies;
  • Low-complexity joint detection and interference cancellation techniques;
  • Space-time coding/MIMO/smart antennas in conjunction with multi-carrier systems;
  • Robust synchronization and channel estimation;
  • Cell- and frequency planning aspects;
  • Realization and implementation issues.

Social Event & Venue of MC-SS 2005:

Olympia TowerAt first we will explore the historical city of Munich by a guided bus tour. Afterwards, we will enjoy a gala dinner on the Munich Olympic Tower. The rotary restaurant is located 181 meters (543ft.) above the Munich's Olympia Parc. Therefore, you will have an amazing view over Munich by night and maybe the possibility to see the new illuminated World Cup 2006 Stadium.
