A new receiver structure for asynchronous CDMA STAR-the spatio-temporal array-receiver.

We propose a spatio-temporal array-receiver (STAR) for asynchronous code division multiple access (CDMA), using a new space/time structural approach. First, STAR performs blind identification and equalization of the propagation channel from each mobile transmitter. Second, it provides fast and accur...
