Summary:Asynchronous decorrelating detector is a linear multiuser detector
in code-division multiple-access (CDMA) environment. It has relatively
good performance and low-computational complexity. However, the ideal
asynchronous decorrelating detector requires the observation of the
entire input bit sequence. Implementation of this ideal detector based
on a long bit sequence results in long delays and high computational
complexity. In fact, if the observed window does not cover the entire
data sequence, the classical asynchronous decorrelating detector is no
longer near-far resistant. In this paper, we propose a method using
initial decisions on bits for both edges of the finite observed window.
These initial decisions are used to assist subsequent decisions of the
whole sequence inside the observed window based on the decorrelating
method. This new edge decision assisted decorrelator (EDAD) method is
shown to be near-far resistant
