New acquisition decision algorithm for multiple access interference suppression in DSSS system

For decreasing the multiple access interference of weaker signal acquisition in direct sequence spread spectrum（DSSS） systems,a new single decision algorithm is presented.The maximum value of correlation results is conventionally detected.However,there may be not only one strong peak among correlation results when the cross-correlation noise is strong enough to affect the correlation results.The proposed algorithm decreases the false alarm probability through the decision of the ratio of the maximum value and the second maximum value of the correlation results.Theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm effectively suppresses the acquisition problem of multiple access interference in DSSS system.

Results are given in terms of average acquisition time obtained by means of simulations and theory analysis.

Multiple access interference suppression for CDMA systems via l_(∞)-minimization

A key problem in code-division multiple access(CDMA)system is to mitigate the multiple access interference(MAI)from other users while detecting the desired user.The performance of the conventional minimum output energy(MOE)multiuser detector for CDMA system significantly degrades in the presence of signature waveform distortions induced by multipath propagation or timing asynchronism.In this paper,a robust linear programming(ROLP)algorithm for blind multiuser detection is proposed.Different from the existing MOE-based multiuser detection techniques,the proposed ROLP minimizes the l_∞-norm of the output to exploit the non-Gaussianity of the communication signals.To achieve robustness against signature waveform mismatch,the proposed method constrains the magnitude response of any signature vector within a specified uncertainty set to exceed unity.The uncertainty set is modeled as a rhombus,which differs from the spherical uncertainty region widely taken in the existing robust multiuser detectors.The resulting optimization problem is reformulated into a linear programming program and hence can be solved efficiently.The proposed ROLP is computationally simpler than its robust counterparts that requires solving a second-order cone programming.Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the ROLP over several robust detectors,which indicate that its performance approaches the optimal performance bound.

Equivalent Time-Domain Representation and Uplink Channel Estimator for Multicarrier CDMA Systems

Many blind channel estimation methods have been proposed for direct sequence (DS) code-division multiple access (CDMA) systems, so we can certainly use them to estimate the finite impulse response (FIR) channel for the multi-carrier (MC-) CDMA system. In this paper, the MC-CDMA system is interpreted as an equivalent time-domain DS-CD-MA system with specific spreading codes. Then, an equivalently time-domain blind channel estimator is derived for the uplink MC-CDMA, which is based on second-order statistics of the received data. By exploiting singular value decomposition (SVD) and the finite alphabet property of transmitted symbols, the time-domain channel impulse response (CIR) for the uplink MC-CDMA can be accurately identified. Computer simulations illustrate both the validity and the overall performance of the proposed estimator.

Multiuser detector based on wavelet networks

Multiple access interference (MAI) and near-far problem are two major obstacles in DS-CDMA systems. Combining wavelet neural networks and two matched filters, the novel multiuser detector, which is based on multiple variable function estimation wavelet networks over single path asynchronous channel and space-time channel respectively is presented. Excellent localization characteristics of wavelet functions in both time and frequency domains allowed hierarchical multiple resolution learning of input-output data mapping. The ma thematic frame of the neural networks and error back ward propagation algorithm are introduced. The complexity of the multiuser detector only depends on that of wavelet networks. With numerical simulations and performance analysis, it indicates that the multiuser detector has excellent performance in eliminating MAI and near-far resistance.

Novel space-time multiuser detection algorithm of WCDMA system

The structure and performance of space-time multiuser detection receiver at base stations of WCDMA system is analyzed, in which smart antenna is employed. WCDMA uplink signal model is established in this paper. Space-time multiuser receiver presented in this paper combines 2D-RAKE with parallel interference cancellation (PIC), and the improved parallel interference cancellation methods are given. A novel space-time multiuser detection scheme, 2DRAKE-GPPIC is proposed. This scheme employs smart antenna to suppress unexpected DOA (Direction Of Arrival) signal, uses RAKE receiver to combine different delays of expected signal, and utilizes grouped partial parallel interference cancellation (GPPIC) algorithm to suppress further the interference signal in the main lobe of array antennas. The simulation results reveal that the scheme of space-time multiuser detection presented in this paper has better performance for WCDMA system.

IDMA based MAI mitigation scheme with low complexity and low latency

High complexity and high latency are key problems for multiuser detection （MUD） to be applied to a mobile station in cellular networks. To tackle these problems, an interleave division multiple access （IDMA） based multiple access scheme, grouped spread IDMA （GSIDMA）, is proposed. In a GSIDMA system, lower complexity and latency for mobile stations can be achieved by appropriately dividing active users into different groups. The system model of GSIDMA is constructed and followed by analysing on its system capacity, complexity and latency, and bit error rate （BER） performance. The extrinsic information transfer （EXIT） chart is used to analyze the convergence behavior of the iteration process. The grouping method and interleavers-reuse issue for GSIDMA are also discussed preliminarily. The analyses and simulation results indicate that the complexity and latency of the proposed scheme are much lower than those of IDMA, whereas its BER performance is close to the latter. The properties of low complexity and low latency make it more feasible for the practical implementation.

ITERATIVE "ONE-SHOT" DECORRELATION IN DS-CDMA SYSTEMS

In this paper, an iterative 'one-shot' decorrelator for asynchronous code Division Multiple Access(CDMA) systems is proposed. This decorrelator feedbacks the decorrelated symbols of interfering users before decision to mitigate their interferences. As a result, this decorrelator is a linear detector and does not need any amplitude information of users as in decision-feedback detectors. Compared with existing 'one-shot' decorrelator, it has reduced complexity and provided better performance while eliminating all Multiple Access Interference(MAI). The performance of this decorrelator is analyzed thoeritically, and analytical result is given. Numerical results show near-far resistant capability of this decorrelator in both AWGN and fading channel.

Performance Analysis of 32-User Spectral Phase Encoding Time Domain System for Fiber-Optic CDMA Networks

Multiple access techniques are required to meet the demand for high-speed and large-capacity commtmications in optical networks, which allow multiple users to share the fiber bandwidth. O-CDMA （optical code-division multiple-access） is receiving increased attention due to its potential apphcations for LAN optical networks. O-CDMA is attractive for next generation broadband access networks due to its features of allowing fully asynchronous transmission with low latency access, soft capacity on demand, protocol transparency, simplified network management as well as increased flexibility of QoS （Quality of Service） control and enhanced confidentiahty in the network. Hence, the authors experimentally investigate an ultra short pulse O-CDMA scheme based on spectral phase encoding and decoding of coherent mode-locked laser pulses, they proposed a technique using spectral phase encoding time domain system for 32 users. This technique is proved to be much effective to handle 32 users at 4 Gb/s bit rate and 60 km SMF （single mode fiber） transmission used for SPE O-CDMA system. Results indicate significant improvement in term low BER （beat error rate） and very high quality factor in the form of QoS. The authors have used PSO （pseudo orthogonal） codes and random phase code. The simulations are carried out using OptSim （RSOFT）.

A photon-counting-based iterative parallel interference cancellation （PIC） scheme for free-space optical communications in the presence of multiple-access interference, shot noise, background radiation, and turbulence fading is designed. An efficient chip-level iterative equivalent noise estimation algorithm is also derived. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can achieve a single-user performance, bound with the fast convergence property. More importantly, it can eliminate the bit-error rate floor of the conventional optical code-division multiple-access system with the aid of a relatively short spreading code length.

Multiuser detection for DS-CDMA systems in non-Gaussian channels

An adaptive multi-user detector was developed for direct-sequence code division multiple access(DS-CDMA)systems corrupted by non-Gaussian channel noise,which can be quite detrimental to the performance of the multi-user detectors based on classical white Gaussian assumption.This receiver simultaneously combats multiple-access interference(MAI)and non-Gaussian impulsive noise.The channel parameters are estimated and transmitted signals are jointly detected by a simple recursive algorithm derived from the EM/SAGE algorithm.Analytical and simulation results show that the proposed technique is robust with wider applicability than conventional multi-user detectors in terms of near-far resistance and bit-error ratio(BER)when either MAI or non-Gaussian impulsive noise is dominant.
