Differential semi-blind beamspace-time interference cancellation for DS-WCDMA systems in frequency selective time-varying channels

In this paper, we propose a new differential semi-blind spatial-temporal beamforming receiver for asynchronous direct sequence wideband code division multiple access (DS-WCDMA) systems. The new receiver presents improved robustness to phase variations and reduction of the effects of nonlinear distortion.
