Provided is a method (300) and a successive interference cancellation (SIC) based multi-user uplink
receiver (200) for multi-user
uplink transmission. The method comprises receiving (302)
signal of one or more multiple-access (MA) scheme waveforms by a plurality of antennas (202.1, . . . , 202.R) from one or more users. The method further comprises determining (304) one or more effective channel matrices corresponding to the plurality of antennas. Thereby, the method comprises performing (306) channel
equalization for
signal received in a corresponding antenna by an effective channel matrix. Furthermore, the method comprises combining (308) the channel equalized
signal. Subsequently, the method comprises detecting (310) Correctly Decoded Code Blocks (CCBs) and Wrongly Decoded Code Blocks (WCBs). Upon detecting CCBs and WCBs, the method comprises performing (312) the SIC on received signals from one or more users until all WCBs are converted to CCBs or a maximum number of threshold iterations are completed.
