TY - JOUR T1 - A low-complexity enhancement to suboptimal CDMA receivers. JF - IEEE Transactions on wireless communications A1 - Lau, A.P.T LA - English UL - https://tuklas.up.edu.ph/Record/UP-99796217609624740 AB - Conventional matched-filter detectors for code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems suffer from multiple-access interference (MAI) caused by nonzero correlation between spreading codes at the receiver. A host of advanced detector structures have been proposed to reduce the effect of MAI and, hence, improve performance. However, most multiuser detectors suffer from their relatively complex implementations. A simple method is proposed to improve the performance of the conventional detector by detecting and correcting decision errors at its output without the use of forward error correcting (FEC) codes. The proposed post-detection error control method is shown to substantially improve the performance of the conventional detector, but has a much lower complexity than most other multiuser detectors.
