Abstract
Current implementation of IS-95 based systems is performance limited due to the use of a “conventional” detection scheme, which is susceptive to inter-user interference. We focus on the uplink, and try to examine the performance enhancement achieved by a suboptimal linear multiuser MMSE pre-filter, applied in front of the “standard” detection mechanism. We demonstrate the limitations of this relatively simple approach, and the constellations in which it may show improved performance.
