Diversity Reception of an Asynchronous Blind Adaptive Multiuser Detector Through Correlated Nakagami Fading Channel

In this paper, blind adaptive multiuser detection (MUD) technique is developed for uplink transmission in multiuser space diversity DS-CDMA system to overcome multipath fading effect and multiple access interference. The system consists of a space diversity, a precombining blind adaptive detector (PBAD), and a weight adaptation technique based on the minimization of the mean output energy (MOE). The bit error rate (BER) performance of this receiver for asynchronous DS-CDMA signals with independent and correlated antenna branches under Nakagami fading channel for BPSK system is evaluated. It has been seen that the use of antenna diversity can yield substantial improvement in performance even if the correlation between the antenna elements is relatively large (up to 0.795). However, the large correlation values pose a significant reduction in the diversity gain in comparison with the zero correlation situation. It has also been confirmed by simulations that the PBAD provides a significant receiver performance in comparison with the RAKE receiver employing antenna diversity. Khodr A.

A Low-Complexity Multiuser Detector for Asynchronous CDMA QPSK Adaptive Antenna Array Systems

This paper proposes a low complexity joint space-time multiuser detection algorithm for asynchronous DS/CDMA antenna array systems. The proposed multiuser detector is composed of an adaptive antenna array, used as a linear beamformer, and a sliding window decorrelator. A QPSK modulation scheme is used in order to increase bandwidth efficiency. Numerical results are given in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER) under the assumption of a frequency-selective Rayleigh slow fading channel. In particular, the proposed receiver is shown to be near-far resistant, even in worst fading cases, and to exploit completely array introduction while maintaining acceptable computational complexity. The proposed architecture avoids linear filter realization of the decorrelator, which is impractical in the case of a large number of users, and operates with relatively short data frames instead of the complete information sequence. Finally, this receiver is very flexible to changes in timing configuration.

Novel Equalization On‐Channel Repeater with Feedback Interference Canceller in Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting System

In this paper, we propose a novel equalization on‐channel repeater (OCR) with a feedback interference canceller (FIC) to relay terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting signals in single frequency networks. The proposed OCR not only has high output power by cancelling the feedback signals caused by insufficient antenna isolation through the FIC, but also shows better output signal quality than the conventional OCR by removing multipath signals existing between the main transmitter and the OCR through an equalizer. In addition, computer simulations and laboratory test results demonstrate that the proposed OCR successfully cancels feedback signals and compensates channel distortions and provides a higher quality transmitting signal with higher output power than conventional OCRs.     

Multiuser Frequency Synchronization for Interleaved-OFDMA Uplink Systems

This paper investigates the frequency synchronization in the uplink of the Orthogonal frequency- division multiple access （OFDMA） system with interleaved subcarrier assignment. In such a system, one of the key problems is the multiuser frequency synchronization, which focuses on the multiple-parameter estimation of the Carrier frequency offsets （CFOs）. In this paper, we propose a two-stage frequency offset estimation algorithm. The main advantage of the proposed method is that it can obtain the CFOs of all users simultaneously using only one OFDMA block. In addition, a novel CFO-compensation method is presented. Based on the inner signal structure of interleaved-OFDMA uplink, the new scheme uses adaptive beamformer to compensate the CFO of each user and isolate the signals of all users at the same time. Compared to the previously known methods, the proposed algorithm can provide accurate frequency synchronization and data detection without feeding CFO estimates back to active users for frequency adjustment.     

Multistage linear receivers for DS-CDMA systems

A new family of multistage low-complexity linear receivers for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) communications is introduced. The objective of the proposed design is to mitigate the effect of multiple access interference (MAI), the most significant limiting factor of user capacity in the conventional DS-CDMA channel. The receivers presented here employ joint detection of multiple users and therefore require knowledge of all the signature codes and their timing. In addition, for a multipath environment, reliable estimates of the received powers and phases are assumed available for maximal ratio RAKE combining. Each stage of the underlying design recreates the overall modulation, noiseless channel, and demodulation process. The outputs of these stages are then linearly combined. The combining weights can be chosen to implement different linear detectors, including the decorrelating and minimum mean square error (MMSE) detectors. In this paper, we focus on implementing the MMSE detector. Simulation results illustrate that significant performance gains can be achieved in both synchronous and asynchronous systems.This work was presented in part at IEEE Communication Theory Workshop, April 23–26, 1995, and at IEEE MILCOM '95, November 5–8, 1995.This work was submitted in partial fulfillment of Ph.D. requirements at The City University of New York.     

A Multiple Input-Multiple Output (MIMO) Adaptive Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) with Cancellation for Wideband Space-Time Communications

A new receiver structure able to deliver high data rates in a multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) frequency selective wireless environment is proposed and investigated in this paper. The optimal solution for the finite-length MIMO decision feedback equalizer (DFE) with cancellation is derived and used to illustrate the potential of this architecture for space-time communications. LMS and RLS adaptive algorithms are also presented for the MIMO architecture. The convergence and performance of these adaptive algorithms is analyzed through simulation results. The proposed adaptive solutions do not require channel identification, are less computationally intensive than their optimal solution counterpart, and allow the proposed MIMO receiver to seamlessly adapt to channel changes.
