1. MULTI-USER DETECTION RECEIVER (MUD)

• MUD refers to the process of demodulating one or more user data streams from a non-orthogonal multiplex based on knowledge on spreading codes (signature sequence), timing, phases and received amplitudes of all users,

• optimum receiver: makes decisions by selecting the transmitted sequence to minimize the sequence error probability (maximum likelihood sequence detection, ML).

• high performance gains of optimum receiver: achieved at the cost of extremely high degree of complexity,

• solution: suboptimum receivers,• suboptimum receiver principle: mostly replacing

Viterbi decision algorithm with a reduced complexity algorithm.

2. MOTIVATION FOR NEW MUD DEVELOPMENT



5 of 27

• suboptimum receiver examples:

BMF receivers, decorrelating MUD receivers (D-MUD), minimum mean square error MUD receivers

(MMSE-MUD), non-linear single-stage MUD receivers (NSS-

MUD); e.g neural network or Volterra filter based MUD receivers,

non-linear multi-stage MUD receivers: serial or parallel interference cancellation (SIC, PIC receivers), etc.



6 of 27

• NSS-MUD principle: the output of the NSS-MUD is taken as the sign of the multi-channel non-linear transformation of the outputs of the BMF,

• basic idea for a new NSS-MUD design: application of M-CMF in order to do the multi-channel non-linear transformation of the outputs of the BMF.

WHY TO DO IT?



7 of 27

• boundary of decision regions:

optimum receiver: non-linear, suboptimum receivers: approximation of

boundary of decision region of optimum receiver,

linear suboptimum receivers: linear approximation (e.g. BMF receiver , MMSE-MUD, D-MUD),

non-linear suboptimum receivers: non-linear approximation.



8 of 27

• intention: to design of the receiver with piece-wise linear approximation of boundary of the decision region,

• why (1): this approximation should provide better results than that of linear approximation,

• why (2): this approximation should provide less complex implementation than that of non-linear suboptimum receiver.

3. SINGLE-CHANNEL CONVENTIONAL MICROSTATISTIC FILTER (CMF)



10 of 27

• minimum mean-square non-linear estimator, • the desired signal (filter output) is given by a

linear combination of signal samples obtained by a threshold decomposition of the input signal of the filter,

• CMF: the piece-wise linear system,• CMF structure (Fig.2): threshold decomposer (TD)

+ multi-channel Wiener filter (M-WF) + constant term.

random processes (time-invariant filter design), • threshold values of TDs are fixed, known in

advance.

6. MICROSTATISTIC MULTI-USER DETECTION RECEIVER (MSF-MUD)

• MSF-MUD (Fig.6) is obtained from the optimum receiver by replacing the Viterbi decision algorithm with the M-CMF,

• output of MSF-MUD is taken as the sign of the non-linear transformation of the output of the BMF due to the M-CMF,

• MSF-MUD is MMSE piece-wise linear receiver,• design: the same approaches as for the optimum

linear MMSE-MUD.

Fig. 7. Results of the 1st experiment for the 1st user

The power of the signal at the input of the receiver produced by all users at the input of the receiver was the same.

24 of 27

Fig. 8. Results of the 2nd experiment for the 1st user

The power of the signal at the input of the receiver produced by the first user was ten times smaller than that of the second user,

(i.e. performance properties at near-far effect) .

8. CONCLUSIONS

a) The time-invariant M-CMF was introduced.b) MSF-MUD receiver structure based on M-CMF

has been proposed.c) Experiment 1 (Fig.7): all receivers applied in our

experiments can provide almost the same results.

d) Experiment 2 (Fig.8): the optimum receiver: the best results, the MSF-MUD outperforms clearly the linear MUD receivers.



25 of 27

e) The simple computer simulation has shown that the MSF-MUD could outperform the other tested linear MUD receivers.

f) These results were achieved at the expense of the higher computational complexity of the MSF-MUD.
