A digital receiver automatically detects and non-coherently demodulates a
multiplicity of interfering digitally modulated signals transmitted
simultaneously at approximately the same carrier frequency. The receiver
includes one or more antenna inputs (e.g., polarization and/or space
diverse), a parameter estimator module, and a multiuser detector for
estimating the data transmitted by each interfering signals and adapted
to operate with at least one of a MUD algorithm with partially quantized
prior information and a MUD algorithm based on prewhitened data.
