In this thesis, we consider the uplink of a cooperative code division multiple access (CDMA) network, where users cooperate by relaying each other¡¦s messages to the
base station. The sources adopt CDMA to share the informations offered by relays. In general, spreading waveforms of sources are not orthogonal to each others due to pratical design issues of CDMA network. Therefore, the source signals will suffer from multiple access interference (MAI) at the relays and destination. The MAI results in the increase of bit error rate increased, and diminishes the cooperative network diveristy gains. In order to mitigate MAI, the decorrelating multiuser detection and
zero-forcing precoder have been commonly adopted. But, the decorrelating multiuser detection causes noise enhancement, while the zero-forcing precoder causes power expansion. In this thesis, we adopt relay-assisted decorrelating multiuser detector (RAD-MUD) to mitigate MAI as proposed in [1].In this scheme, the relays perform
half of decorrelating operation and the destination performs the other half. In this way, neither noise enhancement nor power expansion will occur. However, in the reference [1], the authers assume the transmission is synchronous between sources and relays. The assumption is unrealistic, because it is difficult to achieve synchronization between all sources and relays due to various propagation delays. In this thesis, we extend the research in [1] and relax restriction of synchronization between all sources and relays. Besides, we also adopt cooperative strategies such as transmit beamforming or selective relaying to enhance system performance. Compared with other¡¦s multiuser detection schemes, we show that the proposed schemes can effectively reduce the bit error rate.
