N2 - This investigation has been motivated by a recent increased interest in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) CDMA systems for broadband wireless services. One of the major problems in OFDM systems is nonlinear distortion caused by high-power amplifiers. In this paper, the effect of non-perfect power amplification on OFDM-CDMA systems is examined. Simulation results show that, with an ideally linearized amplifier, the performance of OFDM-CDMA systems can be improved over an AWGN channel. In general, OFDM-CDMA systems perform better than OFDM systems with non-ideal power amplification, by using a simple code word assignment scheme.
