A Soft Parallel Interference Cancellation Algorithm in WCDMA

A two-stage soft parallel interference cancellation (SPIC) algorithm in WCDMA system is proposed. The performance of the algorithm is analysed in perfect power control and near-far case, and the influence of the timing error on the system BER is discussed. Analysis and simulation show that the SPIC technique can enhance system capacity, and have a good ability to resist near-far impact. With its simple structure, it has good potential for practical applications.
