Block phase-precoding for blind multiuser detection of BPSK/DS-CDMA signals

A new approach for blind multiuser detection of binary phase-shift keying/direct-sequence code-division multiple-access signals is proposed, based on precoding the phase of the transmitted data uniquely for each user, over a block of data. This would enable separation and detection of a desired user's signal in an unknown multipath channel without channel estimation. The method does not involve any sacrifice in data rate or system bandwidth. The proposed method exhibits good performance, compared with some existing methods.
