In this paper, we describe the implementation of the proposed single user type CDMA adaptive interference canceller (AIC) with RAKE structure in the developed testbed for the base station, and evaluate its performance in the multiuser and multipath fading environment. Laboratory experiment demonstrates that the AIC receiver is much more near-far resistant than the conventional matched filter (MF) receiver in the multiuser case. When the power of the other users is 6 dB larger than that of the desired user, the AIC receiver can achieve the BER of 10-3 at C/PG = 33. 3 % in the 2-path fading channel, while the MF receiver cannot achieve the BER at C/PG of more than 20. 8%. Furthermore, we evaluate the effect of transmission power reduction in the transmitter with transmission power control (TPC). The experimental result shows that the required transmission power can be greatly reduced by 3. 0 dB and 9. 2 dB with the AIC receiver at C/PG = 29. 2 % and 33. 3%, respectively.

This paper describes a CDMA cellular system based on adaptive interference cancellation (CDMA-AIC) with a large capacity. In the CDMA-AIC, each base station employs a single-user type adaptive interference canceller (AIC), which consists of a fractionally chip-spaced code-orthogonalizing filter (COF) and a coherent detector. The AIC adaptively removes power-dominant multiple-access interferences (MAIs) in the cellular system, regardless of whether they are intra-cell interferences or inter-cell interferences, without any information about them, such as spreading codes, signal received timings and channel parameters. Evaluation under the multiple-cell environment demonstrates that the reverse link capacity of the CDMA-AIC with QPSK modulation is 3.6 times as large as the capacity of the CDMA without MAI cancellation. Further, the capacity is less sensitive to transmission power control errors than that of the conventional CDMA systems.

In this paper, we briefly describe the proposed radio access scheme based on CDMA/FDD for next-generation mobile radio systems, and evaluate its performance through laboratory and field experiments on transmission power control (TPC) and diversity, which are the key technologies to achieve efficient CDMA systems. The design of the practical TPC method is discussed, and a robust method is presented for operation in low signal to interference power ratio (SIR). Laboratory experiments demonstrate that space and path diversity effectively improve the TPC performance in the Doppler frequency range of 40 to 80 Hz, and reduces the required Eb/N0 to achieve the BER of 10-3. The necessary diversity order for multipath fading mitigation in all the Doppler frequency range is also investigated. Through the field experiments in urban area of Tokyo using a developed system at 0. 96 Mcps, a low required Eb/N0 of 2. 8 dB can be obtained because of the effectiveness of the diversity.
