Abstract

AbstractRecently, the Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) scheme has been proposed to improve channel utilization efficiency. SDMA requires separation and detection schemes in the base station because serious interference develops among all of the users accommodated by the same channel. In this paper, we propose the Channel Response Assisted Adaptive Array (CRA‐AA) that estimates the channel response in the uplink and uses this result to indirectly control the directivity, and compare its performance to those of MMSE adaptive array and joint detection. We also study a scheme to compensate for the carrier frequency offsets generated at each user. We found that CRA‐AA had superior performance in the presence of both fast fading and carrier frequency offsets. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
