However, the sensor response, location uncertainty, and the use of sample statistics can severely degrade the performance of second order statistics processing. And in practical application, it is impossible to calibrate the array frequently. In this paper a cumulant based 2D Rake receiver for synchronous CDMA system with decorrelator is presented. Decorrelating is a multi user detection approach that not only provides a fundamental solution to the mutual interference problem in CDMA communications but also makes it convenient for the decoupled signal to be processed spatially and temporally. High order signal processing has some inherent advantages over that of second order. Employing second order statistics it is impossible to estimate source steering vector blindly, while employing higher than second order cumulants, this purpose can be achieved. The performance analysis shows that employing cumulant based signal processing technique the proposed 2D Rake receiver is blind and demonstrates excellent performance.展开更多
