  • Reduced algorithm receiver
    Patent number: 7200103
    Abstract: A code-enhanced, multi-user detection, Reduced Algorithm Receiver in a multiuser communication system reduces the signal processing requirements by limiting the number of searches between consecutive symbol cycles using information from an encoder state diagram. The Receiver makes use of a convolutional encoder's state machine properties to mark possible transitions as invalid based on the current state of the multiple users'encoders, thus removing them from the search tree.
