A de-rotation approach to the blind separation of synchronous co-channel BPSK signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a simple algorithm for the blind separation of m synchronous co-channel BPSK signals by an array of n receiving antennas. We exploit the geometric implications of the finite alphabet property of BPSK signals. After a standard channel whitening step, the noiseless received data vectors describe an m-cube, which is a rotated version of the hypercube defined by the 2, distinct vectors of f l ’ s corresponding to all the possible combinations of the states of the sources. We provide a simple procedure to estimate the vertices of this rotated hypercube in the noisy case and then show how the rotation matrix can be determined up to a sign and permutation of its columns. De-rotation of the channel-whitened data results in source separation. Simulations show the good performance of our proposed technique.

Maximum likelihood estimation of constellation vectors for blind separation of co-channel BPSK signals and its performance analysis
In this paper, we present a method for blind separation of co-channel BPSK signals arriving at an antenna array. This method consists of two parts: the maximum likelihood constellation estimation and assignment. We show that at high SNR, the maximum likelihood constellation estimation is well approximated by the smallest distance clustering algorithm, which we proposed earlier on heuristic grou...

We propose a new approach to solving the problem of blind separation of BPSK signals. Using the constant modulus property of the signal, we formulate this problem as a constrained minimization problem that can be solved efficiently using an extended Newton’s method on the Stiefel manifold. Compared with the existing separation methods, the proposed method is quite robust to additive noise, achi...

Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...
متن کاملBlind separation of synchronous co-channel digital signals using an antenna array. I. Algorithms
We propose a maximum-likelihood approach for separating and estimating multiple synchronous digital signals arriving at an antenna array. The spatial response of the array is assumed to be known imprecisely or unknown. We exploit the nite alphabet (FA) property of digital signals to simultaneously determine the array response and the symbol sequence for each signal. Uniqueness of the estimates ...

We propose a novel approach for separating and estimating multiple co-channel digital signals arriving at an antenna array. The spatial response of the antenna array is known imprecisely or unknown. We exploit the discrete-alphabet property of digital signals to simultaneously determine the array response and the bit sequence for each signal.
