Abstract

The problem of joint channel estimation and multiple access interference suppression for an asynchronous code-division multiple-access system is studied. A low-complexity sliding-window scheme is proposed for channel tracking based on the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm and a noncoherent maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) multi-user detector. By exploiting features of discrete random phase ambiguities of channel estimates using the EM algorithm, the proposed scheme can track channel phase even if the channel is in a deep fade. In conjunction with iterative soft interference cancellation, the proposed detector can achieve near single user system performance with polynomial complexity in the number of users.
