<p>In an adaptive CDMA receiver (20), a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DS-SS) received signal and a reference signal are equalized by minimizing the error between them. The received signal includes a desired DS-SS communication signal comprising binary bits coded with spreading chip sequences. The received signal is sampled at a chip rate to produce sampled received signals which are correlated with each other. The received samples are partially de-correlated by employing an orthogonal transformation algorithm to provide de-correlated subspace elements and correlated subspace elements. The adaptive equalization process is based on de-correlated and correlated subspace elements. Tap coefficients of a despreading equalizer (400) are updated for the de-correlated and correlated elements individually and collectively, respectively. This selective updating of tap coefficients provides for fast convergence and minimum error.</p> |
