Abstract

The present invention provides an interference canceling method and the apparatus of a multi-mode subtraction type in asynchronous multipath channels of CDMA system, which cancel the interference based on the received signal power of each user (or path), which make the selected fingers keep participating in the subsequent cancellation processing with new (more cleaned) input signal, which do a scale factor's processing and a clipper's processing to make the tentative bit decision, which can select the proper interference canceling method among various interference canceling method according to the total number of users in service, the hardware speed to implement the present method and the power spread of received signals, which repeat the selected interference canceling process recursively with a stage of hardware, which can reduce the number of stage compared with parallel interference cancellation method of the prior art in case that the interference canceling apparatus is made up multi-stages, which do overlappingly a canceling process of the last bit of the multiple bits for efficient operation in the asynchronous channel, which reduce the interference according to the power se…
