Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the performance of a modified evolutionary multi-user detector (MUD) in multi-carrier direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) communication systems over frequency-selective fading channels. The genetic algorithm (GA), which tries to reduce the complexity in optimal detection due to greedy exhausted searching, performs using the adequate sub-optimal multi-user detector for MC-CDMA systems. In this paper, we propose a forcing mutation scheme for the genetic algorithm (GA) to perform a forcing mutation evolutionary multi-user detector (FME-MUD) and to largely reduce computational complexity. Simulation results show that with six generations, the proposed FME-MUD scheme outperforms the conventional GA-MUD, especially at heavy system loads.
