We analyze a combined equalization technique for multi carrier-code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) systems which consists in performing both pre-equalization at the transmitter and post-equalization at the receiver. In particular, a parametric partial equalization (PE) technique is considered at both sides, and we derive a generalized analytical framework to evaluate the bit error probability (BEP) and choose the optimal PE parameters which minimizes the BEP depending on system parameters.
