Abstract

A method of extracting data from a received signal including multi-path interference in a rake receiver. The method includes sampling and filtering the received signal; estimating a time delay τl between paths for the filtered samples ψ(τ); and estimating channel complex coefficient cl for the filtered samples ψ(τ). Transmitted data x(τl) is extracted from the filtered samples ψ(τ) for each path l by solutions of simultaneous equations of the following filtered samples ψ(τ) equationwherein k is a particular path, Np is the number of visible paths, Rƒƒ(τl–τo) is a double convolution matrix of the filtering process and Rƒƒ−1(τk−–o) is the pseudo inverse, Λss(τl) is the product of spreading and scrambling matrices and ΛssH(τk) is the inverse, and (τ) is noise.
