Abstract
A desired signal and interfering signal are transmitted in the same timeslot and on the same frequency using an Adaptive Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (AQPSK) modulated carrier. When the Sub-Channel Power Imbalance Ratio (SCPIR) for the AQPSK modulated carrier is large and favors the interfering signal, the interfering signal is demodulated first to obtain demodulated soft bits. The demodulated soft bits corresponding to the interfering signal are then used to estimate receiver control parameters, such as Doppler shift, frequency offset, timing error, gain, etc. Using the demodulated soft bits corresponding to the interfering signal improves the accuracy of the receiver control parameters when the SCPIR is large, and results in better overall performance of the receiver.
