Abstract: | Motivated by the fact that time delays in a practical direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) system can never be perfectly estimated, an improved minimum-mean squared-error (MMSE)-based receiver is proposed and analyzed. Via the simple assumption of a probability distribution for the delay estimation errors, the proposed receiver can achieve a performance superior to that of the conventional MMSE (CMMSE) receiver. The performances of this improved receiver and the CMMSE receiver are compared in terms of the mean squared error (MSE), probability of error, and asymptotic multiuser efficiency (AME). As the original definition of AME does not consider mismatched channels, the behavior of three single-user receivers bearing imperfect delay estimation is also investigated. These single-user receivers are employed to define a more appropriate AME. Finally, an efficient update mechanism to accommodate dynamic channel statistics, and thus practical implementation, is proposed |
