MSF-MUD and BA-MUD receivers: principles and comparison

Microstatistic multi-user detection receiver (MSF-MUD) and blind adaptive multi-user receiver (BA-MUD) are two different minimum mean square error suboptimum receivers for code division multiple access (CDMA) transmission systems. The BA-MUD belongs to well-know receivers. On the other hand, the MSF-MUD has been described only in several papers. The properties of the MSF-MUD have not been yet compared with that of the BA-MUD. With regard to that fact, we would like to describe the basic structure of the MSF-MUD and BA-MUD and to compare their basic performance properties in this paper. Because the MSF-MUD properties have not been described extensively, we believe that this comparison is useful contribution to MUD theory
