直序式超寬頻通訊(DS-UWB)是目前超寬頻的主要技術之一。超寬頻通訊技術適用於短距離(<10公尺)環境,其中的多重路徑效應在多用戶情況下,容易影響展頻碼之間的正交特性,進而造成多重存取干擾(Multi-Access Interference, MAI)的問題。為了消除MAI,最佳多用戶偵測器雖然能達到極佳的系統效能,但因計算複雜度太高,故無法實現。為了在效能與複雜度之間取得平衡,若干研究提出了次佳的方法,例如架構於基因演算法的多用戶偵測器(Genetic algorithm based multi-user detector, GA-MUD)。先前的研究提出整合局部接收型耙式接收器(Partial Rake, p-rake)為前級的局部接收型耙式接收器之基因演算法多用戶偵測器(Partial Rake GA-MUD, PRGA-MUD),但其錯誤率依然偏高。因此本研究提出以限制選擇型耙式接收器(Constricted selection rake receiver, cs-rake)為前級的限制選擇型耙式接收器之基因演算法多用戶偵測器(Constricted Selection Rake GA-MUD, CSRGA-MUD),以有效降低位元錯誤率。另外,為了降低運算複雜度,我們進一步提出了一種低複雜度之CSRGA-MUD,藉由犧牲少量BER來降低複雜度,達到複雜度與BER間的平衡。
DS-UWB is one major technology employed in UWB system. However, for the multi-user application the multiple access interference (MAI) due to imperfect orthogonality between spreading codes induced by UWB dense multi-path degrades system performance. Though optimum multi-user detector (OMD) can achieve remarkable performance, its computational complexity is too high to implement. Therefore, many sub-optimal multi-user detectors (MUDs) have been proposed to compromise system performance and complexity, such as the genetic algorithm-based MUD (GA-MUD). Previous work combining the partial rake receiver (p-rake) and GA-MUD has been proposed, but its performance is still not attractive. Therefore, a CSRGA-MUD that combines the constricted selection rake receiver (cs-rake) and GA-MUD is proposed to improve BER performance further. Moreover, for seeking the best trade-off between BER performance and computational complexity, a CSRGA-MUD with lower computational complexity is also proposed.
