摘要

Future wireless communication networks are characterized by the heterogeneous multi-tier infrastructure, which can support the various levels of quality-of-services (QoSs) for different tiers/users. In this paper, we propose a novel type of hierarchical frequency-hopping (FH) technique to achieve the multi-level QoSs target by flexibly controlling its Hamming auto-and cross-correlations values. A construction algorithm of hierarchical FH sequence (FHS) set is designed via the series of mathematical transformations based on a given optimal pseudo-random FHS set, then its hierarchical Hamming correlation properties are exactly depicted in Theorem 1. As a study case, the developed FHS set is employed in asynchronous and heterogeneous multi-tier uplinks based on hopped-subcarrier OFDM (FH/OFDM) signals. The simulated results reveal that the proposed hierarchical FHS can provide multi-level bit-error-rates (BERs) for various tiers networks; meanwhile, it attains the superior transmission quality by significantly suppressing the inter- and intra-tier interference.
