Abstract

In multi user scenarios to prevent interference between users that share the same bandwidth at the same time,each user has to transmit wave forms that are uncorrelated with those of other users. However, due to spectrum limitations, the uncorrelated property cannot always be satisfied meaning that interference is unavoidable. In order to alleviate the interference, a framework for interference mitigation is presented. The performance of the proposed framework is tested on simulated and real signals. The real signal is acquired in a controlled laboratory environment using a Software Defined Radio (SDR). The simulated and experimental results show that the proposed framework is capable of mitigating the interference from other users.
