Adaptive step-size algorithms for blind interference suppression in DS/CDMA systems
This paper develops adaptive step-size blind LMS algorithms and adaptive forgetting factor blind RLS algorithms for code-aided suppression of multiple access interference (MAI) and narrowband interference (NBI) in DS/CDMA systems. These algorithms optimally adapt both the step size (forgetting factor) and the weight vector of the blind linear multiuser detector using the received measurements. Simulations are provided to compare the proposed algorithms with previously studied blind RLS and blind LMS algorithms. They show that the adaptive step-size blind LMS algorithm and adaptive forgetting factor blind RLS algorithm field significant improvements over the standard blind LMS algorithm and blind RLS algorithm in dynamic environments where the number of interferers are time-varying.
