Abstract

In this paper, Multi-User Detection (MUD) techniques are investigated for Multiple Input Multiple Output Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MIMO MC-CDMA) systems. Maximum A Posteriori Decision Feedback Equalizer (MAP-DFE) already introduced in MIMO systems is extended to the MC-CDMA downlink transmission. This detector cancels the Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) on the basis of the a posteriori error probability estimation. In this context, we show through simulations that MAP-DFE performance improves significantly compared to other well-known detection techniques such as Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) and Block DFE (BDFE).
