Adaptive WCDMA (P15)

Wideband CDMA network sensitivity 15.1 THEORY AND PRACTICE OF MULTIUSER DETECTION Advanced wireless Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems employing multiuser receivers described in Chapters 13 and 14 have gained a lot of attention during the recent years. In the beginning, the research was purely academic. In order to fully exploit CDMA capabilities, the third-generation wideband CDMA networks [1] have been planned to include interference cancellation (IC), as soon as it becomes feasible to implement (for details, see also Chapter 17). A number of overview papers [2–6] discuss basic features of multiuser detection (MUD) and IC techniques. Among linear IC schemes, decorrelating...
