Adaptive Wavelet Division Multiplexing for Heterogeneous Mobility Users

Seyyed Erfan Fatemi, Wafa Hedhly, Leila Musavian, Nikolaos Thomos

This paper proposes an adaptive wavelet division multiplexing scheme for wireless systems serving users with heterogeneous mobility profiles over frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels. By exploiting the multiresolution structure of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT), users are adaptively assigned to different decomposition levels according to their channel dynamics and Doppler conditions. A single-tap minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizer is applied in the frequency domain, and the system performance is evaluated under realistic time-varying multipath fading environments. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed adaptive allocation achieves balanced bit error rate (BER) across all user mobility classes while delivering substantial peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reductions relative to both conventional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) modulation. The proposed framework is further validated in a four-user heterogeneous-mobility scenario, confirming its scalability and effectiveness to mixed-mobility multi-user scenarios.
