We propose a reception scheme with adaptive beamforming for multiuser Alamouti-type space-time block code. The proposed scheme performs space-time processing to optimally estimate the transmitted space-time block coded symbols based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion. Simulation results show that the scheme achieves good performance in a multiuser system. With N receive antennas the scheme can support N users each with two antennas.

For orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems, the frequency offsets in mobile radio channels distort the orthogonality between subcarriers, resulting in inter-carrier interference (ICI), which seriously degrades the performance of systems. Based on ICI coefficients analysis and reasonable estimation of the frequency offset, the paper presents a novel decorrelation interference cancellation method with the use of frequency-domain equalization at the receiver. Without the iterative operation on the weighting coefficients and the inverse operation on the matrix, ICI can be eliminated by directly using the cyclic embedding algorithm of the Toeplitz matrix in terms of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). Compared with conventional frequency-domain equalization, this new scheme has better convergence reliability and lower computational complexity. Simulation results show that an OFDM system using the proposed ICI cancellation scheme can effectively eliminate ICI, have significant performance improvement and mitigate the effects of OFDM communication systems. The scheme works very well in the multipath radio channel and high-speed mobile environment.

The multi-access performance of the single-user correlation receiver of time hopping impulse radio with bipolar modulation is analyzed in terms of the signal-to-noise ratio and the bit error rate from the spectrum point of view. The closed form expressions for the signal power spectral density, the SNR and the BER are derived, based on which the signal parameter design guides are presented in a straightforward manner to improve the multi-access performance. Simulations demonstrate the theoretical analysis, and show the influence of signal parameters on the multi-access performance.

This paper addresses the problem of the UMTS downlink multipath interference and its impact on the performance of the high speed data packet access (HSDPA). The performance is studied for specific channel quality indicator (CQI) values defined in 3GPP, using both QPSK and 16-QAM modulations. It is shown that the multipath interference introduced by the channel induces a severe performance loss, which is especially relevant for the CQI with 16-QAM modulation, with a high number of concurrent physical channels. A multipath interference canceller (MPIC) using clipped soft decision (CSD) is proposed for suppressing this interference. Results with and without MPIC are presented, showing that a considerable performance gain can be obtained with the use of the MPIC.

A user traffic multiplexing scheme for the downlink of an OFDM cellular system is proposed and evaluated. The scheme is based on the set of orthogonal time-frequency (T-F) patterns obtained from a generic Costas sequence. An intercell interference averaging method, based on a randomly variable cyclic time offsetting of the whole set of orthogonal T-F patterns, is also part of the scheme. The time offset is changed for each transmission time interval, according to a cell-specific multilevel pseudo-random sequence. Thus, the intercell OFDM interference becomes limited and noise-like, while no resource planning on the system level is required.

Direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) signals exhibit cyclostationary properties which imply a redundancy between frequency components separated by multiples of the symbol rate. In this paper a multiple access interference canceller (frequency shift canceller) that explores this property is presented. This linear frequency domain canceller operates on the spread signal in such way that the interference and noise at its output is minimized (minimum mean squared error criterion). The frequency shift canceller (FSC) performance was evaluated for a UMTS-TDD scenario and multi-sensor configurations, where the cases of diversity and beamforming were considered. All these configurations are evaluated concatenated with a parallel interference canceller (PIC-2D). The results are benchmarked against the performance of the conventional RAKE-2D detector, the conventional PIC-2D detector and single user scenario, and we observe considerable performance gains with the FSC especially for the diversity case and a performance close to the single user case when it was evaluated jointly with PIC-2D.

We address bit error probability of the optimum multiuser detector for multi-carrier code division multiple access in frequency-selective fading channels. We use the replica method, a tool from statistical physics, to calculate the bit error probability in the large system limit for randomly assigned spreading sequences. The analysis allows for binary input symbols with biased probabilities and, therefore, can be used to analyze iterative multiuser decoders.

An algorithm is presented that recovers, to a large degree, the performance degradation due to channel estimation and equalization errors in a multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) system. The algorithm uses the two-dimensional structure of the MC-CDMA frame to estimate the equalization error. It contains two steps that can be applied independently from each other. In the first step, the pilot symbols are corrected and channel estimation and equalization are redone for the received data symbol samples. In the second step, a possible remaining mismatch on the equalized data symbol samples is 're-equalized' and new symbol decisions on the 're-equalized' signal are made. It is shown that the algorithm is able to improve the performance in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and fading channels with and without channel coding. On a frequency-selective fading channel and with standard R/sub cc/=1/2 convolutional coding, a performance improvement of approximately 4.75 dB is possible at a BER of 10/sup -6/.

The analysis of adaptive decision feedback turbo equalization is provided. The turbo detector is a reduced-complexity adaptive turbo equalizer where trellis-based channel equalization is replaced by the adaptive decision feedback equalizer (DFE). We show that for severe intersymbol interference (ISI) the turbo effect (waterfall region) starts at lower SNR relative to the detector applying conventional MMSE DFE coefficients assuming perfect feedback.

The classical channel estimator is a linear interpolator based on PSAM (pilot symbol assisted modulation). The interpolation length can be determined by the estimated Doppler shift because the channel variation rate is related to its maximum Doppler shift, which leads to an adaptive WMSA (weighted multislot average) channel estimation method to improve channel estimation accuracy. Simulation results show good performance in a wide range of velocities.
