Abstract
A receiver for use in a CDMA telecommunications system is disclosed. The receiver includes at least one antenna for receiving signals from a CDMA channel, an estimator for estimating an impulse response of the channel, and an adaptive equalizer. The estimator provides a reference for the adaptive equalizer, and the adaptive equalizer operates to estimate a transmitted chip sequence of the channel and to restore orthogonality among the received signals. The adaptive equalizer includes circuitry for utilizing a blind adaptive algorithm to estimate the transmitted chip sequence of the channel.
