Comparison of CDMA spatio-temporal receivers structures for multi-rate applications

Code division multiple access (CDMA) is the multiple access scheme retained for the third generation wireless communication systems, that must support high data rate transmissions, and operate over jammed Rayleigh fading channels. In the current work, we propose and analyze multi-antenna spatio-temporal adaptive receiving structures of detection at the base station, able to cope with degradations due to multiple access interferences. Their ability to reject part of the jammers, and their resistance to near-far effects is discussed.
