A PARALLELIZED SUCCESSIVE INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION (PSIC) RECEIVER ARCHITECTURE FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS

摘要

The disclosed systems, structures, and methods are directed to a wireless receiver. The configurations presented herein employ a signal encoding module to encode a plurality of received analog signals with an orthogonal code set and combine the encoded analog signals into a single encoded analog composite signal, an analog-to-digital conversion unit to convert the single encoded analog composite signal into a single encoded digital composite signal containing constituent digital signals. The presented configurations also include a bank of multiple successive interference cancellation (SiC) modules to sequentially remove the constituent digital signals from the single encoded digital composite signal until a single constituent digital signal remains and a decoding module configured to decode the remaining constituent digital signal from the single encoded digital composite signal.
