Interference eliminating apparatus and method
First Claim
1. An interference eliminating apparatus in a CDMA radio receiver for eliminating an undesired signal component from a receive signal and outputting a desired signal, comprising:
- a correlation output unit for outputting a correlation value between a spreading code for spreading a desired signal and a non-orthogonal code, which is a code that is not orthogonal to the spreading code, for spreading an undesired signal;
an amplitude-ratio acquisition unit for acquiring an amplitude ratio between a pilot signal and an undesired signal contained in the receive signal;
a first RAKE combiner for RAKE-combining and outputting multipath channel estimation values;
a canceling-signal generator for generating a canceling signal, which cancels an undesired signal component, using the correlation value, amplitude ratio and result of RAKE-combination of the channel estimation values; and
a signal eliminating unit for subtracting the canceling signal from the receive signal to thereby eliminate the undesired signal contained in the receive signal.

Abstract
A RAKE receiving unit (50) despreads and RAKE-combines a receive signal by a spreading code codel of a desired signal. A correlation calculation unit (61) in a canceling-signal generator (60) calculates a correlation value F between the spreading code codel and a non-orthogonal code code2. An amplitude-ratio acquisition unit (62) acquires an amplitude ratio A between a pilot signal and an undesired signal contained in the receive signal, a RAKE combiner (63) RAKE-combines multipath channel estimation values, and a canceling-signal output unit (64) multiplies the correlation value F, amplitude ratio A and result B of RAKE-combination of the channel estimation values and generates a canceling signal (undesired signal component) X. A signal eliminating unit 70 subtracts the canceling signal X from the RAKE-combined signal R that is output from the RAKE receiving unit (50), thereby outputting the desired signal.
