نویسندگان
چکیده
| The problem considered is of estimating propagation delays of the transmitted signals in a direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system operating over fading channels. Special attention is given to the near-far problem. An estimator based on subspace identiication techniques is proposed. The Cram er-Rao bound is presented and used as a benchmark when evaluating the performance of the estimator.

Parameter Estimation and Detection of Ds-cdma Signals Subject to Multipath Propagation
In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the propagation delays and relative amplitudes of the transmitted signals as well as detecting the data bits in an asynchronous direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system operating over a fading channel. A subspace based estimator is proposed for estimating the propagation delays. The path gains and data bits are estimated ...

In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the propagation delays of the transmitted signals in an asynchronous direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system operating over a fading channel. Two estimators based on subspace techniques are compared and the Cram er-Rao Bound, a lower bound on the variance of any unbiased estimator, is derived. Special attention is paid t...
متن کاملNonlinear Multiuser Receiver for Optimized Chaos-Based DS-CDMA Systems
Chaos based communications have drawn increasing attention over the past years. Chaotic signals are derived from non-linear dynamic systems. They are aperiodic, broadband and deterministic signals that appear random in the time domain. Because of these properties, chaotic signals have been proposed to generate spreading sequences for wide-band secure communication recently. Like conventional DS...
متن کاملOn-Line Propagation Delay Estimation in Asynchronous DS-CDMA Systems
In this paper, estimation and tracking of the propagation delays, also known as code acquisition and tracking, in an asynchronous DS-CDMA system are considered. Of special interest is the performance in a near-far environment and the proposed estimator is shown to be near-far resistant. The suggested technique is subspace based and relies on recursively tracking the signal subspace, followed by...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of near-far resistant DS-CDMA receivers to propagation delay estimation errors
| In this paper we consider an asyn-chronous direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) communication system operating over an AWGN channel. In certain applications , the near-far problem can be the limiting factor for the capacity of a DS-CDMA system. Several near-far resistant receivers have therefore been proposed (e.g., the decorrelat-ing receiver). These receivers assume perfe...
