NOVEL ADAPTIVE MULTIUSER DETECTIONALGORITHM BASED ON WAVELET TRANSFORM

The wavelet transform-based adaptive multiuser detection algorithm is presented. The novel adaptive multiuser detection algorithm uses the wavelet transform for the preprocessing, and wavelet-transformed signal uses LMS algorithm to implement the adaptive multiuser detection. The algorithm makes use of wavelet transform to divide the wavelet space, which shows that the wavelet transform has a better decorrelation ability and leads to better convergence. White noise can be wiped off under the wavelet transform according to different characteristics of signal and white noise under the wavelet transform. Theoretical analyses and simulations demonstrate that the algorithm converges faster than the conventional adaptive multiuser detection algorithm, and has the better performance. Simulation results reveal that the algorithm convergence relates to the wavelet base, and show that the algorithm convergence gets better with the increasing of regularity for the same series of the wavelet base. Finally the algorithm shows that it can be easily implemented.

Low Complexity Multiuser Detection with Recursively Successive Zero-Forcing and SIC Based on Nullspace for Multiuser MIMO-OFDM System

To improve the spectrum efficiency, this paper considers the multiuser detection with the MU-MIMO technology for multiuser MIMO-OFDM system uplink with the same subcarrier shared by multiple users. A low complexity multiuser detection algorithm with recursively successive zero-forcing and successive interference cancellation(RSZF-SIC) based on nullspace is proposed. The RSZF process based on the block diagonalization(BD) technique eliminates the co-channel interference(CCI) by a recursive method based on the nullspace orthogonal theorem. The SIC process detects the user signals respectively with the reasonable user detection sequence based on the results of the RSZF process. The computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is effectively reduced by reducing the total number of singular value decomposition(SVD) operations and the dimension of the SVD matrix in the recursive procedure. The performance of the proposed algorithm is improved in terms of bit error rate and sum capacity of the system, especially in the highSNR regime.

ANALYSIS OF GROUP MULTIUSER DETECTION BASED ON COALITION GAME THEORY

Coalition game theory is introduced to investigate the performance,fairness and stability of decorrelating group multiuser detection receiver,not only from the perspective of individual nodes,but also various coalitions and the whole system as well. Firstly,to derive how the system scale with coalition size,a stochastic model with transferable payoffs (stochastic TU-model) is provided. Secondly,to find the most preferred coalition structures from the view point of individual nodes,a model with Non-Transferable payoffs (NTU-model) is presented. Theoretical analysis and simulation results suggest that stochasticaly the grand coalition is payoff maximizing for the system as a whole,while individual nodes with good-conditioned channels may prefer local "win-win coalitions".

FIXED-POINT BLIND ADAPTIVE MULTIUSER DETECTION ALGORITHM FOR IR UWB SYSTEMS IN MULTIPATH CHANNEL

Using the hypothesis that data transmitted by different users are statistically independent of each other,this paper proposes a fixed-point blind adaptive multiuser detection algorithm for Time-Hopping (TH) Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra Wide Band (UWB) systems in multipath channel,which is based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) idea. The proposed algorithm employs maximizing negentropy criterion to separate the data packets of different users. Then the user characteristic se-quences are utilized to identify the data packet order of the desired user. This algorithm only needs the desired user’s characteristic sequence instead of channel information,power information and time-hoping code of any user. Due to using hypothesis of statistical independence among users,the proposed algorithm has the outstanding Bit Error Rate (BER) performance and the excellent ability of near-far resistance. Simulation results demonstrate that this algorithm has the performance close to that of Maximum-Likelihood (ML) algorithm and is a suboptimum blind adaptive multiuser detection algorithm of excellent near-far resistance and low complexity.

Low Complexity Multiuser Detection Algorithm for Multi-Beam Satellite Systems

The minimum mean square error-successive interference cancellation( MMSE-SIC) multiuser detection algorithm has high complexity and long processing latency. A multiuser detection algorithm is proposed for multi-beam satellite systems in order to decrease the complexity and latency. The spot beams are grouped base on the distance between them in the proposed algorithm. Some groups are detected in parallel after a crucial group-wise interference cancellation. Furthermore, the multi-stage structure is introduced to improve the performance. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve better performance with less complexity compared with the existing group detection algorithm. Moreover,the proposed algorithm using one stage can reduce the complexity over the fast MMSE-SIC and existing group detection algorithm by 9% and20. 9%. The processing latency is reduced significantly compared with the MMSE-SIC.

BLIND DIFFERENTIAL ADAPTIVE MULTIUSER DETECTION

In this paper, a new blind equalization cost function, termed differential mean output energy (DMOE), was presented, and a new multiuser detection algorithm with variable step size was designed. It is shown through simulation results for a co channel system involving severe MAI that the DMOE algorithm gives significantly enhanced signal to interference ratio (SIR) performance and converges rapidly to the optimum MMSE detector, together with a low computational complexity requirement relative to the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. Thus, it is not necessary to switch to the decision directed mode. Moreover, it also exhibits global convergence, and can be used in different interference environment without the requirement of estimating and restricting the surplus energy.

PERFORMANCE OF MULTIUSER DETECTION FOR CDMA SYSTEM IN A FLAT RAYLEIGH FADING ENVIRONMENT

In a CDMA communication network using conventional signal detection, system capacity is limited and its performance is degraded by the multi-access interference (MAI). Multiuser detection, which makes use of cross-correlation information between spread spectrum codes, can reduce or eliminate the MAI in a Gaussian channel so as to mitigate the near-far effects and increase the system capacity. This paper extends the multiuser detector to a flat Rayleigh fading CDMA environment, and discusses the bit error rate of typical multiuser detection algorithms in such a environment by combining theoretical analysis and computer simulation. It is shown that multiuser detection is superior to conventional detections in the flat Rayleigh fading channels.

The simulation results reveal that the scheme of space-time multiuser detection presented in this paper has better performance for WCDMA system.

Algorithm and application of multiuser detection for CDMA-based MANET

Throughput of mobile ad hoc network （MANET） is limited by collision avoidance. In CDMA-based MANET, this limitation can be overcome by multiuser detection （MUD） because conventional colliding packets can be detached and detected by MUD so that multi-packet reception （MPR） is possible. This paper introduces the principles of MUD algorithm for MANET, and proposes an adaptive blind MUD algorithm. A special medium access control （MAC） protocol is designed to make MANET more efficient. This is achieved by sending more packets to a destination simultaneously. The proposed MUD algorithm and MAC protocol allow CDMA-based MANET to support MPR. Simulations show a remarkable improvement in the throughput performance of MANET.

Iterative multiuser receiver for joint multiuser detection and channel decoding improves the receiver' s performance by passing soft information between multiuser detection and channel decoding. In this paper, an iterative multiuser receiver based on decorrelating decision-feedback detection is proposed, which is effective to implement multiuser detection, channel decoding and parameter estimation. The data decoding and the parameter estimation are reinforced each other. The bit error rate decreases along with the increase of the iteration, and the parameter estimation approaches the optimum at the same time.

The problem of blind multiuser detection in dispersive channels of Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) in the presence of both Multiple-Access Interference (MAI) and InterSymbol Interference (ISI) is considered. In practice, it is showed that by incorporating the desired user's signature waveform and the auxiliary vector, the information of the user can be identified using the suboptimal subspace method. The major contribution of this paper is to propose a minimum-mean-square-error detector with the suboptimal subspace-based blind technique for joint suppression of MAI and ISI in the dispersive CDMA channels.

In this paper, several antenna configurations are designed for DS-CDMA communication in MIMO systems. Space-time linear multinser detection and space-time serial interference cancellation multiuser detection are simulated. Bit-error-rate and computation complexities of the two methods are compared. Conclusions are given in the end.

One-User/One-Group Soft-Decision Aided Multiuser Detection for 2D Spread MC DS-CDMAs

We consider the uplink of a multiuser, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), frequency-time-domain spread, multi- carrier (MC), direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system. As other CDMA-like systems, the multiple access interference (MAI) effect still exists in such an MC DS-CDMA system. To mitigate the MAI effect, we propose user-based and group-based layered detection schemes. Specifically, to enable a trade-off between the performance and the computational complexity, the schemes only use one user's/group's soft decisions for user-based/ group-based layered detection. The results of simulations demonstrate that the proposed schemes outperform existing approaches, and their computational complexity is modest.

This paper provides the performance analysis of multiuser Vertical Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time (V-BLAST) system receiver structures for Multiple-input Multiple-Output (MIMO) channel at a base station with assumption of perfect channel estimation and perfect timing delay estimation. In MIMO channels the receivers such as decorrelator, Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) and Multistage Parallel Interference Cancellation (MPIC) receiver outperform the conventional receiver. Withal, since the multiple antenna interference led to a strong impact on the performance degradation of a multistage interference cancellation receiver, the performance of MPIC receiver was highly degraded based on system loading.

SUCCESSIVE BEAMFORMING,MULTIUSER DETECTION AND DIVERSITY RECEPTION FOR MULTICARRIER DS-CDMA SYSTEM WITH ANTENNA ARRAY

Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) systems are interference limited,and therefore efficient interference management is necessary to enhance the performance of a CDMA system.In this paper,a successive beamforming (spatial filtering),linear decorrelating MultiUser Detection (MUD, temporal filtering) and diversity reception structure for uplink multicarrier Direct Sequence CDMA (DS-CDMA) system with antenna array are proposed.By beamforming,the antenna array suppresses interference according to the distinct array signature.Subsequently,linear decorrelating MUD is ap- plied to separate the signals of different users and eliminate Multiple Access Interference (MAI).Finally, the decorrelated signals at different subcarriers that belong to the same user are combined to achieve frequency diversity.Simulation results show that the proposed structure offers significant Bit Error Rate (BER) performance improvement by successively exploiting the space-time-frequency processing.

This paper proposes a new multitarget constant modulus array structure for code division multiple access (CDMA) systems. The new algorithm for the structure is called pre-despreading and wavelet denoising constant modulus algorithm (D-WD-CMA). In the new algorithm, the pre-despreading is applied to multitarget arrays to remove some multiple access inter- ferences. After that the received signal is subjected to wavelet de-noising to reduce some noise, and used in CMA adaptive iteration for signal separation. Simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm performed better than the traditional CMA algorithm.

Soft-PIC multiuser detection in MC-CDMA uplink system

It is necessary for an MC-CDMA uplink receiver to employ MUD (multiuser detection) in a frequency selective fading channel. After analyzing the algorithm of PIC(parallel interference cancellation) MUD, a novel MUD scheme, Soft-PIC (soft parallel interference cancellation) is proposed. Based on the reliability of each detected user signal in the former stage, this Soft-PIC detection scheme substitutes a soft decision of the variable for the hard decision in PIC scheme. Compared with the PIC scheme, it can reconstruct the interference signals more accurately and eliminate MAI(multiple access interference) in a more efficient way.PIC is one of the most practical schemes in numerous multiuser detection technologies. However, Soft-PIC as an improved PIC scheme deserves further study.
