Abstract
The general multicarrier (GMC) technique developed by Shanghai Wireless Telecomm Research Center has been considered a leading candidate for the next generation domestic wireless broadband standard. Meanwhile, the IEEE 802.16e (aka, mobile WiMAX) system is rapidly gaining popularity among wireless service providers because of its open standard, high throughput, and low equipment costs. The main objective of this project is to study the feasibility of integrating GMC with IEEE 802.16e into a new, more powerful system.
