An Analytical Mo del for Performance Evaluation of Multistage Parallel Interference Cancellation Detectors in CDMA Systems Guo qiang Xue Jianfeng Weng Tho LeNgo c and Soene Tahar Department of ECE Concordia University Montreal Queb ec Canada email fxue jfw eng tho tahar gececoncordiaca Abstract variable is rened by considering the correlation b e tween the multiaccess interference and Gaussian noise In multistage parallel interference cancellation PIC This approach needs the evaluation of the covariances multiaccess interference from dierent users are mutu that involve bit decisions made in the previous stage ally correlated In this pap er an analytical mo del is The diculty arises from the nonlinear relation intro prop osed to rene the variance of the decision variable duced by hard decision By using Prices theorem by taking the correlation into account Prices theorem we show that a very accurate variance can b e derived is used to evaluate the nonlinear relations involved in and improve the accuracy of the analytical results on some of the covariances It is shown that the derived the BER variance is very close to that obtained by simulation The rest of the pap er is organized as follows System and improves the accuracy of BER evaluation mo dels are presented in Section Detailed evaluation of the rened variance of the decision variable using Prices theorem is given in Section Analysis results Intro duction
