An Adaptive Adjacent Channel Interference Cancellation Technique, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza, Shobha Kuruba Jan 2009

An Adaptive Adjacent Channel Interference Cancellation Technique, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza, Shobha Kuruba

Faculty Publications

In this paper, an adaptive adjacent channel interference (ACI) technique is proposed. Results for BPSK modulation with rectangular and square-root raised-cosine pulse shaping, under AWGN conditions, are obtained showing the proposed method to be effective in improving performance under high levels of interference. Basically, the idea is to send pilot signals and then to use them in estimating the amount of ACI in the frequency domain. The estimated spectral error is used to modify tap weights of an adaptive frequency-domain filter. Our simulation results reported suggest that ACI can be effectively reduced with the proposed technique. At the system level, …


On Interference Cancellation And Iterative Techniques, Ryuji Kohno, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza Jan 2001

On Interference Cancellation And Iterative Techniques, Ryuji Kohno, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza

Faculty Publications

Recent research activities in the area of mobile radio communications have moved to third generation (3G) cellular systems to achieve higher quality with variable transmission rate of multimedia information. In this paper, an overview is presented of various interference cancellation and iterative detection techniques that are believed to be suitable for 3G wireless communications systems. Key concepts are space-time processing and space-division multiple access (or SDMA) techniques. SDMA techniques are possible with software antennas. Furthermore, to reduce receiver implementation complexity, iterative detection techniques are considered. A particularly attractive method uses tentative hard decisions, made on the received positions with the …
