Interval-based maximum likelihood benchmark for adaptive second-order asynchronous CCI cancellation

Abstract

© Copyright 2007 IEEEA potential usefulness of a priori time-of-arrival (TOA) information for asynchronous co-channel interference (CCI) cancellation is addressed. An interval-based maximum likelihood (ML) benchmark is developed and compared to the averaged ML benchmark and regularized second-order semi-blind (SB) solution that do not use the TOA information. It is found that in short burst scenarios the SB algorithm demonstrates performance that is close to the interval-based ML benchmark. Furthermore, it is shown that SB may outperform the ML benchmarks in the ML breakdown situation. For longer bursts, the known TOA information can significantly improve the performance.Kuzminskiy, A.M. and Abramovich, Y.I
