Abstract

In this paper, we present a blind adaptive gradient (BAG) algorithm for code-aided suppression of multiple-access interference (MAI) and narrow-band interference (NBI) in direct-sequence/code-division multiple-access (DS/CDMA) systems. This BAG algorithm is based on the concept of accelerating the convergence of a stochastic gradient algorithm by averaging. This ingenious concept of averaging was invented by Polyak and Juditsky (1992)-this paper examines its application to blind multiuser detection and NBI suppression in DS/CDMA systems. We prove that BAG has identical convergence and tracking properties to recursive least squares (LMS) but has a computational cost similar to the least mean squares (LMS) algorithm-i.e., an order of magnitude lower computational cost than RLS. Simulations are used to compare our averaged gradient algorithm with the blind LMS and LMS schemes.
