An Analysis of Some Multiuser Detectors in Impulsive Noise
H. C. G. Vincent, Mario Tanda · 1997
The present paper deals with the problem of data detection in directsequence spread-spectrum multiple-access non-Gaussian channels. This issue arises in practical situations because many physical channels in which multiple-access communications is applied are known to be decidedly non-Gaussian. With reference to a synchronous system, the optimum (in the maximum likelihood sense) multiuser detector is derived, and its performance is analyzed and compared with that of several suboptimum detectors.
