This paper presents interference suppression using a subband adaptive array (SBAA) for uplink space-time block coding (STBC) code division multiple access (CDMA) under a frequency selective fading (FSF) channel. The proposed scheme utilizes CDMA with STBC and a receive array antenna with SBAA processing at the receiver. The received signal is converted into the frequency domain before despreading and adaptive processing is performed for each subband. A novel SBAA construction is introduced to process CDMA signals based on STBC. To improve the performance of the proposed scheme, we evaluate STBC-SBAA using spreading codes cyclic prefix (CP). Simulation results demonstrate an improved performance of the proposed system for single and multiuser environments compared to competing related techniques.
