Abstract

Multiuser CDMA detectors suppress interference to provide improved noise immunity, increased capacity, higher data rates and reduced precision requirements for power control. A new multiuser detector structure is formulated which offers a number of implementation modes ranging in performance from that of interference cancellation (IC) detectors to that of linear receivers, yet provides more attractive performance/complexity tradeoffs. It exploits both space and time diversities as well as the array-processing capabilities enabled by multiple antennas and carries out simultaneous channel and timing estimation, signal combining and interference rejection. The improved performance enables increased utilization of wideband CDMA networks, especially at high data rates
