Abstract

A method for reducing interference in a MIMO MultiCode MC-CDMA system is disclosed wherein a BLAST algorithm is implemented over one block of correlation reception data yi and estimation channel values H of the correlation reception data yi to generate a group of temporary decision symbols C. One symbol, Cki, is selected having a maximum SNR value from the temporary decision symbols. The temporary decision symbols, C, other than the selected symbol, Cki, are combined with the estimated channel value H to recover a group of temporary interference signals over the selected symbol, Cki. The interference signals are subtracted from the correlation reception signal vector, yi to generate a corrected reception signal vector yi+1, and a more accurate decision symbol Cki+1 is identified from the corrected reception signal vector yi+1 and original estimation channel values. The foregoing steps are repeated for other symbols C{circumflex over (k)}i.
