The problem of estimating information symbols transmitted through non-Gaussian multipath CDMA wireless channels with a phased array is considered. First, a robust detector based on the minimax robust estimation theory is proposed. This proposed robust technique has a decreased sensitivity of the estimates with respect to an actually unknown distribution of random noises and interferences. Then, the estimation accuracy of information signals is analysed by Monte Carlo simulation of this direction-of-arrival estimation-based robust detector in multipath scenario.
