IB-DFE receiver techniques for CP-assisted block transmission within DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA systems

MC-CDMA (MultiCarrier Code Division Multiple Access), currently regarded as a promissing multiple access scheme for broadband communications, is known to combine the advantages of an OFDM-based (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), CP-assisted (Cyclic Prefix) block transmission with those of CDMA systems. Recently, it was recognised that DS-CDMA (Direct Sequence) implementations can also take advantage of the beneficts of the CP-assisted block transmission approach, therefore enabling an efficient use of FFT-based (Fast Fourier Transform), chip level FDE (Frequency- Domain Equalisation) techniques. In this paper we consider the use of IB-DFE (Iterative Block Decision Feedback Equalisation) FDE techniques within both CP-assisted MC-CDMA systems with frequency-domain spreading and DS-CDMA systems. Our simulation results show that an IB-DFE receiver with moderate complexity is suitable in both cases, with excellent performances that can be close to the single-code matched filter bound (especially for the CP-assisted DSCDMA alternative), even with full code usage.

A frequency-domain receiver for asynchronous systems employing CP-assisted DS-CDMA schemes

In this paper we consider the uplink transmission within CP-assisted (Cyclic Pre¯x) DS-CDMA (Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access) systems and we present a frequency-domain MUD (MultiUser Detection) receiver with iterative estimation and compensation of residual frequency errors. The proposed receiver is suitable for broadband wireless systems, with performances that can be close to the single-user MFB (Matched Filter Bound), even for fully loaded systems and/or in the presence of strong interfering signals. The receiver is powerful enough for typical asynchronous scenarios, requiring only a coarse synchronization between users.

SIC and PIC multiuser detection for prefix-assisted DS-CDMA systems

In this paper we present iterative frequency-domain multiuser detection (MUD) receivers for the uplink transmission of direct sequence code division multiple access systems (DS-CDMA) that combine iterative block decision feedback equalization (IB-DFE) principles with interference cancelation techniques. Both successive interference cancelation (SIC) and parallel interference cancelation (PIC) structures are considered. Our performance results show that the proposed receiver structures have excellent bit error rate (BER) performances, that can be close to the single-user matched filter bound (MFB), even for fully loaded systems and severely time-dispersive channels1.

Frequency- domain multiuser detection for highly overloaded DS-CDMA systems

A DS-CDMA (Direct Sequence-Coded Division Multiple Access) system has maximum spectral efficiency if the system is fully loaded (i.e., the number of users is equal to the spreading factor) and we employ signals with bandwidth equal to the chip rate. However, due to implementation constraints we need to employ signals with higher bandwidth, decreasing the system’s spectral efficiency. In this paper we consider prefixassisted DS-CDMA systems with bandwidth that can be significantly above the chip rate. To allow high spectral efficiency we consider highly overloaded systems where the number of users can be twice the spreading factor or even more. To cope with the strong interference levels we present an iterative frequencydomain receiver that takes full advantage of the total bandwidth of the transmitted signals. Our performance results show that the proposed receiver can have excellent performance, even for highly overloaded systems. Moreover, the overall system performance can be close to the maximum theoretical spectral efficiency, even with transmitted signals that have bandwidth significantly above the chip rate.

Análisis y diseño de soluciones ASP (Applications Services Provider - Proveedor de Servicios y Aplicaciones) sobre la plataforma de EEPPM y sus filiales para clientes corporativos inalámbricos Datamovil ASP

Las comunicaciones móviles, no aparecen a nivel comercial sino hasta finales del siglo XX. Las redes móviles terrestres se iniciaron en ámbitos restringidos para el establecimiento de comunicaciones en tareas de despacho, para la gestión de las actividades de flotas de vehículos en aplicaciones tales como servicios de policía, mantenimiento de servicios públicos de distribución de agua, gas, electricidad, servicios de emergencia, ambulancias, etc. Radiobúsquedas, redes móviles privadas o Trunking, y sistemas de telefonía móvil mejorados fueron el siguiente paso. Después llegó la telefonía móvil digital, las agendas personales, miniordenadores, laptops y un sinfín de dispositivos dispuestos a conectarse vía radio con otros dispositivos o redes. Y finalmente la unión entre comunicaciones móviles e Internet, el verdadero punto de inflexión tanto para uno como para otro. En la actualidad, las técnicas digitales para las comunicaciones móviles, permiten la utilización de nuevos métodos de acceso, como son las de acceso múltiple por división en el tiempo (Time Division Multiple Access, TDMA), con técnicas de banda estrecha, y el acceso múltiple por división de código (Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA) con técnicas de espectro ensanchado. Las primeras sufren un conocido problema denominado propagación multi-trayectoria Básicamente este fenómeno consiste en que la señal que llega al receptor se compone de la suma de un conjunto de señales idénticas en amplitud pero con fases distintas. En el peor caso la señal en el receptor puede llegar a ser nula, produciéndose un fenómeno de fading importante. Las técnicas de espectro ensanchado (CDMA) no sufren este tipo de problemas.

Orthogonal on-off BPSK: a convenient signaling scheme for near-far resistant detection in DS/CDMA

This paper proposes a convenient signaling scheme-orthogonal on-off BPSK (O3BPSK)-for near-far (NF) resistant detection in asynchronous direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS/CDMA) systems (uplink). The temporally adjacent bits from different users in the received signals are decoupled by using the on-off signaling, and the original data rate is maintained with no increase in transmission rate by adopting an orthogonal structure. The detector at the receiver is a one-shot linear decorrelating detector, which depends upon neither hard decision nor specific channel coding. The application of O3 strategy to the differentially encoded BPSK (D-BPSK) sequences is also presented. Finally, some computer simulations are shown to confirm the theoretical analysis.

Adaptive least mean square CDMA detection with Gram–Schmidt pre-processing

The Gram-Schmidt (GS) orthogonalisation procedure has been used to improve the convergence speed of least mean square (LMS) adaptive code-division multiple-access (CDMA) detectors. However, this algorithm updates two sets of parameters, namely the GS transform coefficients and the tap weights, simultaneously. Because of the additional adaptation noise introduced by the former, it is impossible to achieve the same performance as the ideal orthogonalised LMS filter, unlike the result implied in an earlier paper. The authors provide a lower bound on the minimum achievable mean squared error (MSE) as a function of the forgetting factor λ used in finding the GS transform coefficients, and propose a variable-λ algorithm to balance the conflicting requirements of good tracking and low misadjustment.

Constrained surplus energy adaptive blind CDMA detection

The blind minimum output energy (MOE) adaptive detector for code division multiple access (CDMA) signals requires exact knowledge of the received spreading code of the desired user. This requirement can be relaxed by constraining the so-called surplus energy of the adaptive tap-weight vector, but the ideal constraint value is not easily obtained in practice. An algorithm is proposed to adaptively track this value and hence to approach the best possible performance for this class of CDMA detector.

Convergence analysis of chip- and fractionally spaced LMS adaptive multiuser CDMA detectors

This paper analyzes the convergence behavior of the least mean square (LMS) filter when used in an adaptive code division multiple access (CDMA) detector consisting of a tapped delay line with adjustable tap weights. The sampling rate may be equal to or higher than the chip rate, and these correspond to chip-spaced (CS) and fractionally spaced (FS) detection, respectively. It is shown that CS and FS detectors with the same time-span exhibit identical convergence behavior if the baseband received signal is strictly bandlimited to half the chip rate. Even in the practical case when this condition is not met, deviations from this observation are imperceptible unless the initial tap-weight vector gives an extremely large mean squared error (MSE). This phenomenon is carefully explained with reference to the eigenvalues of the correlation matrix when the input signal is not perfectly bandlimited. The inadequacy of the eigenvalue spread of the tap-input correlation matrix as an indicator of the transient behavior and the influence of the initial tap weight vector on convergence speed are highlighted. Specifically, a initialization within the signal subspace or to the origin leads to very much faster convergence compared with initialization in the a noise subspace.

Performance analysis of the LMS blind minimum-output-energy CDMA detector

Adaptive filters used in code division multiple access (CDMA) receivers to counter interference have been formulated both with and without the assumption of training symbols being transmitted. They are known as training-based and blind detectors respectively. We show that the convergence behaviour of the blind minimum-output-energy (MOE) detector can be quite easily derived, unlike what was implied by the procedure outlined in a previous paper. The simplification results from the observation that the correlation matrix determining convergence performance can be made symmetric, after which many standard results from the literature on least mean square (LMS) filters apply immediately.

Hybrid heuristic-waterfilling game theory approach in MC-CDMA resource allocation

This paper discusses the power allocation with fixed rate constraint problem in multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) networks, that has been solved through game theoretic perspective by the use of an iterative water-filling algorithm (IWFA). The problem is analyzed under various interference density configurations, and its reliability is studied in terms of solution existence and uniqueness. Moreover, numerical results reveal the approach shortcoming, thus a new method combining swarm intelligence and IWFA is proposed to make practicable the use of game theoretic approaches in realistic MC-CDMA systems scenarios. The contribution of this paper is twofold: (i) provide a complete analysis for the existence and uniqueness of the game solution, from simple to more realist and complex interference scenarios; (ii) propose a hybrid power allocation optimization method combining swarm intelligence, game theory and IWFA. To corroborate the effectiveness of the proposed method, an outage probability analysis in realistic interference scenarios, and a complexity comparison with the classical IWFA are presented.

An implementation of nonlinear multiuser detection in Rayleigh fading channel

A blind nonlinear interference cancellation receiver for code-division multiple-access- (CDMA-) based communication systems operating over Rayleigh flat-fading channels is proposed. The receiver which assumes knowledge of the signature waveforms of all the users is implemented in an asynchronous CDMA environment. Unlike the conventional MMSE receiver, the proposed blind ICA multiuser detector is shown to be robust without training sequences and with only knowledge of the signature waveforms. It has achieved nearly the same performance of the conventional training-based MMSE receiver. Several comparisons and experiments are performed based on examining BER performance in AWGN and Rayleigh fading in order to verify the validity of the proposed blind ICA multiuser detector.

Implementing ICA in blind multiuser detection

This paper introduces a blind multiuser detection algorithm for MIMO channels. The receiver is required to separate and recover the information signal of the desired user(s) based on independent component analysis (ICA) of the received sequence. The received sequence is assumed to be independent identically distributed. Experimental results show that the proposed blind ICA multiuser detection works well with a short symbol sequence, even if the channel time span is not accurately estimated. It is concluded that the proposed blind multiuser detection performs better than the conventional matched filters in a noisy environment.
