Robust multi‐user detection based on hybrid Grey wolf optimization

Abstract

SummaryThe search for an effective nature‐inspired optimization technique has certainly continued for decades. This work proposes a novel robust multi‐user detection algorithm based on Grey wolf optimization and differential evolution algorithm to overcome the problem of high bit error rate (BER) in multi‐user detection under an impulse noise environment. The simulation results show that the iteration times of the multi‐user detector based on the proposed algorithm is less than those of genetic algorithm, differential evolution algorithm, Grey wolf optimization algorithm, salp swarm algorithm, grasshopper optimisation algorithm, and whale optimization algorithm with the lowerst BER value.
