Architectures for Wideband CDMA
Software Radios

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that great increases in data rates in
wireless communication systems are possible through the use of multi-user
detection schemes for wideband CDMA systems. Other studies have
concluded that programmability of the wireless hardware is needed
to keep up with changing wireless standards. These are the so-called "software
radios". The question is, can we do both? Is it feasible to
implement a multi-user detection, wideband CDMA receiver using general
purpose hardware? We propose to implement a major part of the system, the
"pilot correlator", on four different processor architectures: Pleiades,
Vector, VLIW, and general purpose. The success of each implementation
will be judged by three criteria which relate to its effectiveness in a
portable wireless device: performance(meeting timing criterion in a real-time
system), complexity/costs and energy.
