1. A method for communication by a user device in a wireless network, comprising:
encoding a set of data symbols with a set of complex-valued codes, to produce a set of subcarrier values;
modulating the set of subcarrier values onto a set of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers assigned for use by the user device, to produce a plurality of modulated subcarriers; and
producing a time-domain waveform that comprises a superposition of the plurality of modulated subcarriers, the time-domain waveform to be transmitted in the wireless network by the user device;
wherein the set of subcarrier values comprises a first polyphase code that encodes a first of the set of data symbols and at least a second polyphase code that encodes at least a second of the set of data symbols;
wherein the first polyphase code causes constructive and destructive interference between the plurality of modulated subcarriers to produce a first periodic pulse waveform having a peak value that is centered at a first time in an OFDM symbol interval, and the second polyphase code causes constructive and destructive interference between the plurality of modulated subcarriers to produce a second periodic pulse waveform having a peak value that is centered at a second time in the OFDM symbol interval, the second time different from the first time.
