Recursive algorithms for multiuser detection over DS-CDMA channels

We focus on the synthesis and the analysis of recursive receivers for direct-sequence code-division multiple-access systems aimed at achieving satisfactory performance at the price of a moderate computational complexity. At the analysis stage, some interesting properties shared by the proposed procedures are proven. Finally, the performance assessment shows that the new schemes are superior to the linear detectors, and some of them achieve a bit-error rate close to that of the optimum receiver
