Description

The cyclostationary properties of Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum signals are well known. These cyclostationary properties imply a redundancy between frequency components separated by multiples of the symbol rate. In this paper we present a Multiple Access Interference Canceller that explores this property and applies to UMTS-TDD. This frequency domain Canceller acts in the spreaded signal in such way that minimizes the interference and noise at its output (Minimum Mean Squared Error Criterium). The performance is evaluated in two detector configurations: one including the Frequency Shift Canceller (FSC) and the other plus a Parallel Interference Canceller (PIC). The results are benchmarked against the performance of the conventional RAKE detector and the conventional PIC detector. PRAXIS XXI FCT ASILUM project VISEF project
