Proposed implementation of a near-far resistant multiuser detector without matrix inversion using Delta-Sigma modulation

A new algorithm is proposed which provides a sub-optimum near-far resistant
pattern for correlation with a known signal in a spread-spectrum multiple access
environment with additive white gaussian noise (AWGN). Only the patterns and
respective delays of the K-1 interfering users are required. The technique does not
require the inversion of a cross-correlation matrix. The technique can be easily
extended to as many users as desired using a simple recursion equation. The
computational complexity is O(K²) for each user to be decoded. It is shown that this
method provides the same results as the "one-shot" method proposed by Verdu and
Lupas.
Also shown is a new array architecture for implementing this new solution
using delta-sigma modulation and a correlator for non-binary patterns that takes
advantage of the digitized Al: signals. Simulation results are presented which show
the algorithm and correlator to be implementable in VLSI technology. This
approach allows processing of the received signal in real-time with a delay of O(.K)
bit periods per user. A modification of the algorithm is examined which allows
further reduction of complexity at the expense of reduced performance. / Graduation date: 1992
