Abstract

We investigate the steady-state properties of the adaptive successive interference canceler (ASIC) for direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) signals. The ASIC is a multistage structure that sequentially detects and removes cochannel users from the received signal impinging on a single antenna element. In order to reliably remove a user, the corresponding multiple access interference (MAI) must be regenerated and subtracted from the received signal. This requires an accurate estimate of the user´s signal amplitude, which is provided by an adaptive weight that is updated at the chip rate.
