Abstract

In this paper, a novel noncoherent multiuser detector with diversity reception for a differentially encoded DS/CDMA signal in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel is proposed. The proposed receiver employs multipath decorrelator and decision feedback differential detector (DFDD) with diversity reception. DFDD performs differential encoding and diversity combining. The performance is obtained by analysis and simulation and it is sown that the proposed receiver outperforms conventional differential receiver with slight increase of complexity.
