We investigate the performance of adaptive interference cancellation receivers for the wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) uplink physical data channel. For the WCDMA uplink waveform, we derive a blind adaptive receiver (BAR) based an the constant modulus algorithm (CMA), and an multistage adaptive parallel interference cancellation (APIC) receiver. In order to improve the performance of the APIC receiver, we propose a hybrid APIC (H-APIC) receiver structure which uses the CMA based BAR as the first stage of the APIC. We evaluate and compare the performance of the above receivers in a near-far scenario and show that the proposed H-APIC receiver performs better than the APIC receiver.
