Abstract
We analyze a new interference suppression structure in direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) systems that is based on two dimensional (frequency- and time-domain) notch filtering. In the first step, the filter is realized in the form of variable-step (function of estimation error-power /spl nu/) least mean square algorithm. This modification will improve the system performance in the transient period by making this period shorter. Unfortunately, in the steady-state regime, the performance will be slightly degraded. This suggests a modification that will include an algorithm with /spl nu/=2 in the transient state and /spl nu/=1 in the steady-state operation. Further modification of the algorithm will use time notching of the code division multiple-access (CDMA) receiver in the period when estimation error is larger than a given threshold. A comprehensive analysis and comparison of these modifications are presented and discussed. These results can be used either for performance enhancement of DSSS systems in the presence of jamming or for CDMA overlay-type mobile communication networks. In the latter case, the interfering signal comes from another user employing narrow-band modulation. The analysis does not include fading so that the results can be used in the case when the narrow-band modulated signal is not significantly distorted by fading. An example is line-of-sight microwave communications, which happens to be one of the most feasible applications.
