Abstract :
A low-complexity and iterative receiver is proposed for the CDMA uplink, consisting of a low-complexity equalizer and single-user decoders. Iterations are used to feed the equalizer with more reliable data, which improves performance. This receiver called turbo-CDMA is aimed to eliminate MUI almost completely in the presence of multipath and to be robust to the near-far effect. Simulation results show that the performance approaches single-user performance at moderate and also low signal-to-noise ratios, even for a severe distortion channel
