Abstract :
In most commercial wideband code division multiple access systems, the transmitted signal in the downlink channel is spread by orthogonal codes to accommodate different users. However, frequency selective fading destroys the orthogonality and causes multiple access interference. Application of a chip level decision feedback equaliser with the Alamouti transmit diversity scheme is proposed to restore the orthogonality of the received spreading sequences.
