Abstract

This paper presents a new nonlinear approach for narrowband interference (NBI) suppression in code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems. The proposed scheme is an adaptive nonlinear predictor that consists of an (N+1)-level quantizer, four adders, and two adaptive linear filters, where N is the number of users in the CDMA system. Both adaptive filters have the same coefficients at each iteration: one for feedforward estimation of NBI and the other for feedback compensation for the estimated result. It could be regarded as an improved version of the nonlinear predictor with offset outputs presented recently by Wang et al. (1996). Computer simulation results support that the improved offset predictor performs much better than the original one under the same complexity. As compared with the nearly optimal approximate conditional mean filter, it achieves almost the same performance even at very low signal-to-noise ratio but involves much less complexity
