Abstract: Provided is a spreading code generating apparatus using a jacket matrix, a method thereof, and a code channel spreading device using the same. The present research provides an apparatus for generating a spread quasi-orthogonal function, which is a spreading code, by using a jacket matrix and a known short bent sequence, a method thereof, and a code channel spreading device that can acquire a minimum level of transmission power and a fine multiple access error probability in a multi-user system. The apparatus includes: a spreading code generating block for generating a spreading code by using a jacket matrix; and a spreading block for spreading external user data by using the spreading code, wherein the jacket matrix is an orthogonal matrix where an inverse matrix for a square matrix of a predetermined size having elements without zero includes inverses and transposes on an element basis.

Abstract: Provided are a method for generating a two-dimensional orthogonal variable spreading code and a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system using the same. The MIMO system can increase a communication capacity in an asynchronous multiple user system as well as a synchronous system in a wideband-Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA). The MIMO system includes: a transmitting block for temporally and spatially encoding a plurality of user data, spreading the user data into orthogonal channel signals, and transmitting them to antennas; and a receiving block for receiving the orthogonal channel signals and performing temporal and spatial decoding and despreading on them. Herein, the transmitting block includes: a space time code (STC) encoding unit for generating and outputting a predetermined number of STC streams; and a jacket orthogonal variable spreading function (JOVSF) channel code spreading unit for spreading the STC streams into orthogonal channel signals by using a JOVSF.
