Abstract— Ship and yard area environments contain materials mainly composed of metals, which also are applied to the interior structures. Such environments embody air channels characterized by several multipath propagation delays and long maximum delay time. Channel models for ship and yard area network are proposed, and existing communication systems Zigbee, Wifi, and Wibro are evaluated in the channel models. The existing systems such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and code division multiple access (CDMA) are combined to produce different variations of orthogonal frequency and code division multiplexing (OFCDM) for experimentation and application. The performance of proposed OFCDM was experimented in ship and yard area network environments.
Index Terms— OFCDM, ship and yard area network, SYAN, OFDM, CDMA, channel model.
