Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) in Computer Network

Computer Network | CDMA: In this tutorial, we will learn Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and how to implement CDMA with Walsh table? By Radib Kar Last updated : May 05, 2023

What is Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA)?

The analogy behind code-division multiple access says there are four people and two out of them are talking with each other in some language what other two don't know and the same goes for those two also. For example, two of them talking in Punjabi and two in Bengali. Those two talking in Punjabi has no idea about Bengali and same for Bengali guys too. So, there is no interruption in their respective communication. The same analogy has been used for CDMA.

Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) Example

We discuss the concept with the help of an example,

Say there are four stations: A, B, C, D
Each station has assigned a code say C1, C2, C3, C4
Each of them sending their respective data say D1, D2, D3, D4
All of them throws their data multiplying with the code
    
Thus data on the channel is
C1D1 + C2D2 + C3D3 + C4D4

The receiver who wants to retrieve simply multiplying the data with its code and divide by the number of the station.

Now, this is possible because of the coding theory. Let's see the how codes are generated, encoding and decoding of data bit and rules of addition and multiplication

CDMA Code Generation

Code generation is done by Walsh table

Walsh table is a kind of recursive table which is represented by

wash table 1
Where W1= [1] 2N=No of stations So, for 2 stations wash table 2
Code for first station is [1 1] //vector Code for second station is [1 -1] //vector Additions and multiplications are vector scalar type Say [1 0]*[-1 1]=(1*-1)+ (0*1)]=-1+0=-1

Encoding and decoding of data

  • If a station is sending bit 0, it's encoded as -1
  • If a station is sending bit 1, it's encoded as 1
  • If station is idle, it's encoded as 0

Example with 2 stations

Say, Station A sends 1, B sends 0
Code of A: [1 1]
Data of A: 1
Code of B: [1 -1]
Data of B: -1

Dara on channel
1*[1 1] + -1*[1 -1]
=[1 1] + [-1 1]
=[0 2] //scalar addition of vector

Now say A wants to retrieve its data
So multiply data on channel with A’s code
([0 2] * [1 1 ] )/2
=(0*1 + 2*1)=2/2=1

For B
([0 2] * [1 -1])/2=-2/2=-1

Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) | C++ Implementation

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

    copy = new int * [n];
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
      copy[i] = new int[n];

    buildWalshTable(num_stations, 0, num_stations - 1, 0, num_stations - 1, false);

    showWalshTable(num_stations);

      for (int j = 0; j < num_stations; j++) {

        wtable[i][j] *= data[i];
      }

    int innerProduct = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < num_stations; i++) {

    }

    int k = innerProduct / num_stations;

    if (k == 1)
      cout << "The data received from station " << sourceStation + 1 << " is: " << k << endl;
    else if (k == -1)
      cout << "The data received from station " << sourceStation + 1 << " is: 0" << endl;
    else
      cout << "Station " << sourceStation + 1 << " is idle, it didn't send any data\n";

    buildWalshTable(len / 2, midi + 1, i2, midj + 1, j2, !isBar);

    return 0;
