Blind RLS-Based Detection Using GSC with DF for STBC MC-CDMA Systems Under Mismatched Channel Estimation

Under Rayleigh fading channels, a common problem with blind multiuser space-time block coded (STBC) multicarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) detectors is that their performance is very sensitive to the signature waveform mismatch (SWM) induced by channel estimation distortion. This paper presents a robust detector using the generalized sidelobe canceller with a double-feedback filter that effectively mitigates the channel estimation distortion for the STBC MC-CDMA system during multipath fading. Numerical simulations show that the proposed detector substantially provides robustness against small-to-medium SWM scenarios for a downlink STBC MC-CDMA system.

Blind multiuser detection for V-BLAST coded multicarrier CDMA system

Focusing on the space-time coded multiuser mobile communication systems in the frequencyselective fading environment, this paper proposes a Vertical Bell labs LAyered Space-Time （V-BLAST） coded Multicarrier Code-Division Multiple-Access （MC-CDMA） scheme and its blind channel identification algorithm. This algorithm employs an ESPRIT-like method and the singular value decomposition, and the channels between every transmit antenna of every user and every receive antenna of the base station are blindly estimated with a closed-form solution. Based on it, an equivalent Minimum Mean-Squared Error （MMSE） time-domain multiuser detector is derived. Moreover, the proposed scheme exploits the precoding in the transmitter in order to eliminate the constraint of more receive antennas than transmit ones, required by most conventional V-BLAST codec schemes. Computer simulation results demonstrate the validity of this proposed scheme.     

A Bayesian Multiuser Detection Algorithm for MIMO-ODFM Systems Affected by Multipath Fading, Carrier Frequency Offset, and Phase Noise

We derive a novel Bayesian algorithm for multiuser detection in the uplink of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system employing stacked space-time block codes, such as the stacked Alamouti code with two transmit antennas, and a stacked quasi-orthogonal code with four transmit antennas. The proposed technique accomplishes joint estimation of the carrier frequency offset, phase noise, channel impulse response and data of each active user. Its derivation relies on the specific structure of the transmitted signal and on efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Simulation results evidence the robustness of the proposed algorithm in both uncoded and coded systems.

Space-time block-coded multiple access through frequency-selectivefading channels

Mitigation of multipath fading effects and suppression of multiuser interference (MUI) constitute major challenges in the design of wide-band third-generation wireless mobile systems. Space-time (ST) coding offers an effective transmit-antenna diversity technique to combat fading, but most existing ST coding schemes assume flat fading channels that may not be valid for wide-band communications. Single-user ST coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing transmissions over frequency-selective channels suffer from finite-impulse response channel nulls (fades). Especially multiuser ST block-coded transmissions through (perhaps unknown) multipath present unique challenges in suppressing not only MUI but also intersymbol/chip interference. In this paper, we design ST multiuser transceivers suitable for coping with frequency-selective multipath channels (downlink or uplink). Relying on symbol blocking and a single-receive antenna, ST block codes are derived and MUI is eliminated without destroying the orthogonality of ST block codes. The system is shown capable of providing transmit diversity while guaranteeing symbol recovery in multiuser environments, regardless of unknown multipath. Unlike existing approaches, the mobile does not need to know the channel of other users. In addition to decoding simplicity, analytic evaluation and corroborating simulations reveal its flexibility and performance merits     

Iterative semiblind multiuser receivers for a space-time block-coded MC-CDMA uplink system

Iterative multiuser detection and space-time coding are two promising techniques to improve the capacity and performance of coded multiuser systems in wireless channels. In this paper, we present iterative multiuser detection schemes for a space-time block-coded multicarrier code-division multiple-access system with multiple transmit and receive antennas. We consider a more general case of an uplink system in the presence of both intra- and intercell interferences. We propose two types of iterative semiblind space-time receivers for such an uplink environment. The first is based on the minimum mean-square error criterion and the second is a hybrid scheme based on a combination of parallel interference cancellation and linear multiuser detection. These iterative receivers are derived, using a subspace approach, which utilizes known users' information for the computation of log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) while blindly suppressing the unknown interference. The LLRs are refined successively during the iterative process by using the extrinsic information available through decoding of all known users. A turbo code is used for channel coding. Simulation results in a frequency-selective Rayleigh-fading environment are presented to verify the performance of the proposed schemes.     

Bayesian Monte Carlo multiuser receiver for space-time codedmulticarrier CDMA systems

We consider the design of optimal multiuser receivers for space-time block coded (STBC) multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) systems in unknown frequency-selective fading channels. Under a Bayesian framework, the proposed multiuser receiver is based on the Gibbs sampler, a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for numerically computing the marginal a posteriori probabilities of different users' data symbols. By exploiting the orthogonality property of the STBC and the multicarrier modulation, the computational complexity of the receiver is significantly reduced. Furthermore, being a soft-input soft-output algorithm, the Bayesian Monte Carlo multiuser detector is capable of exchanging the so-called extrinsic information with the maximum a posteriori (MAP) outer channel code decoders of all users, and successively improving the overall receiver performance. Several practical issues, such as testing the convergence of the Gibbs sampler in fading channel applications, resolving the phase ambiguity as well as the antenna ambiguity, and adapting the proposed receiver to multirate MC-CDMA systems, are also discussed. Finally, the performance of the Bayesian Monte Carlo multiuser receiver is demonstrated through computer simulations
