Netw. 13, No. 1, 5-26 (2007).} \itemab Summary: We propose the physical-layer (PHY) air interface solutions for downlink and uplink transmissions in broadband high-speed wireless cellular systems. A system based on low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) time-division multiple-accessing (TDMA) (with scheduling) is proposed for downlink transmission; and a system based on orthogonal space-time block coded (STBC) multi-carrier code-division multiple-accessing (MC-CDMA) is proposed for uplink transmission. The proposed scheme can support $\sim$ 100 Mbps peak rate over 25 MHz bandwidth downlink channels and $\sim$ 30 Mbps sum rate of multiple users over 25 MHz uplink channels. Moreover, the proposed solutions provide excellent performance and reasonable complexity for mobile station and for base station. \itemrv{~} \itemcc{} \itemut{Broadband; Wide-band; High-speed; High data rate; Physical layer; Air interface; Uplink; Downlink; MIMO; OFDM; Multi-carrier(MC); CDMA; LDPC} \itemli{doi:10.1007/s11276-006-6060-1} \end
