Abstract

The present invention describes a channel equalizer and a method for channel equalization in a receiver in a multi-user communication system. The method comprises the steps of receiving a signal with at least two antennas to produce at least two antenna input streams, measuring the temporal of each antenna input stream and the spatial correlation between the antenna input streams, determining a user-independent pre-equalization filter from the temporal and spatial correlation, filtering the antenna input streams with the pre-equalization filter, and finally inputting the filtered signal to a user-dependent receiver configured to detect the received data symbols of a given user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to channel equalization methods used in multi-user communication systems. Although the present invention relates specifically to WCDMA communication systems, it should be noted that it is applicable to other communication systems, including LTE, WiMAX, WiFi, UWB, GSM, etc. The present invention is a low-complexity user-independent spatial and temporal minimum mean square error (MMSE) pre-equalization. Background technique [0002] In any wireless communication system, the transmitted signal is distorted by the dynamic nature of the wireless channel. These dynamic properties give rise to frequency selective channels. Therefore, at the receiver side, some equalization scheme can be applied in order to compensate for the dynamic characteristics of the wireless channel. Ideal compensation removes the effects of the radio channel and makes the resulting equalized channel perfectly frequency flat. However, this approach caus...
