Abstract
In this paper, we evaluate system performance and propose signal separation and detection when a user with one antenna shares the co-channel together with a user with two space-time coded antennas. The proposed technique can identify co-channel users by an interference cancellation method and detect the signals by maximum likelihood method. Simulation results show that the shortcoming of the Minimum Mean-Squared Error technique which can be applied two users with the same number of antenna but can not applied for heterogeneous MIMO users with the different number of antennas. Also, we apply the proposed scheme to OFDM system and evaluate the system performance. By simulations, we identify that the performance of the proposed system is the same as that of the existing single antenna users and improves the performance of the two-antenna MIMO users.
