Abstract
In this paper, we present an iterative joint channel estimation and data detection technique for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems over frequency-selective fading channels. Based on the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, the proposed iterative receiver achieves a performance close to the optimum maximum-likelihood (ML) receiver. In addition, the performance of the proposed receiver is optimized through weight coefficients using the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) criterion. Compared to the single-user bound, our results show that the proposed receiver can mitigate the multiple-access interference and attain the full system diversity. Furthermore, our simulation results confirm that the proposed receiver is near-far resistant and offers fast convergence in severe near-far scenarios.
