International audience. This paper analyzes the suitability of various multiple access schemes for a 60 GHz mobile ad hoc network. The investigated techniques include multi-carrier modulation (OFDM-TDMA), the spectrum spreading method (DS-CDMA) and the combined schemes (MC-CDMA, MC-DS-CDMA) benefiting from the advantages of both techniques. The comparison between these different multiple access schemes is focussed on two aspects: (i) sensitivity to phase noise; the large available bandwidth around 60 GHz is very suitable for transmission of high data rate in indoor environments, but one issue in the 60 GHz band is the design of oscillators with moderate phase noise; (ii) robustness to imperfect power control; ad hoc networks consist of a set of mobile terminals communicating among themselves without any central controller; radio resource management has to be conducted in a distributed way and the power control is inherently imperfect.
