This paper presents work carried out on a multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) for a down-link cellular radio systems. The MC-CDMA system carries out energy spreading in all available sub-channels or in the frequency domain. It also performs multi-carrier modulation using a set of orthogonal (or biorthogonal) filters. The optimisation of these filters is done based on their time-frequency characteristics and depends also on the application. Here the biorthogonal filters are implemented with M-band wavelet-based system in a form of cosines modulated filters to configure a perfect reconstruction system. The simulation results show that this WB-MC-CDMA system suffers lower interchannel interference, thus making its response more robust against multipath fading and narrow band interference or jamming signal.
