Abstract

AbstractMultiple access interference (MAI) limits the system capacity of wireless communications systems applying code division multiple access (CDMA). Provided that channel knowledge is available in the transmitter, the transmitted signal can be preprocessed by multiuser transmission (MUT) methods. As optimization criterion, the bit error probability/rate (BER) is chosen. On the transmit signal, a limited power constraint is imposed, which is a quadratic function of the transmit signal. The nonlinear optimization problem is modeled in this paper. Unfortunately, the problem is non‐convex. However, with iterative nonlinear optimization methods like SQP, local minima can be found with a performance outperforming other MUT methods.The main remaining challenge are low‐complexity optimization algorithms to allow for a real‐time implementation in highdata rate wireless communications.
