Abstract :
In a code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile radio communication system, interference from other users is one of the most critical drawbacks due to the lack of perfect orthogonality between user access codes. So far, practical systems have used power control to overcome fading and near/far effects. Another approach which also results in an important improvement of the capacity is the use of interference cancellers. A simple linear interference cancellation scheme for coherent BPSK modulation is proposed and analyzed under Rayleigh multipath fading, and in particular, the influence of the channel impulsive response estimation on the performance of the cancellation scheme has been assessed
