Abstract
The direct sequence-code division multiple accesses (DS-CDMA) signals are transmitted over multipath channels that introduce fading and shadowing. Combined effect of multipath fading and shadowing along with multiple access interference (MAI) and inter-symbol interference (ISI) worsens the system performance. Further, experimental results have confirmed the presence of impulsive noise in wireless mobile communication channels. Hence, this paper presents a comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (CLPSO) based multiuser detection technique for DS-CDMA systems over generalized-K (GK) fading channels in presence of impulsive noise. Maximal ratio combining (MRC) receive diversity is also incorporated to mitigate the effects of fading and shadowing. Performance of proposed M-decorrelator is studied by evaluating average error rate. Simulation results show that the proposed M-decorrelator performs better in the presence of fading, shadowing and heavy-tailed impulsive noise when compared to least squares, Huber and Hampel M-estimator based detectors.
