Blind separation of multiple co-channel BPSK signals arriving at an antenna array

摘要

In this letter, we propose a method for blind separation of d co-channel BPSK signals arriving at an antenna array. Our method involves two steps. In the first step, the received data vectors at the output of the array is grouped into 2/sup d/ clusters. In the second step, we assign the 2/sup d/ d-tuples with /spl plusmn/1 elements to these clusters in a consistent fashion. From the knowledge of the cluster to which a data vector belongs, we estimate the bits transmitted at that instant. Computer simulations are used to study the performance of our method.
