description Abstract In non‐cooperative scenarios, the spreading sequences or waveforms of the direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) signals is unknown to the receiver. This paper focuses on addressing the problem of blind estimation of the spreading waveform under multipath channels. In the scenario of direct signal path transmission, the spreading sequences can be directly obtained based on the estimated spreading waveforms. However, in the presence of multipath channels, the spreading waveform becomes the convolution of the spreading sequence and channel response, thus deconvolution should also be performed after estimating the spreading waveforms. In order to perform blind despreading and deconvolution of asynchronous multiuser DSSS signals under multipath channels, the authors propose to exploit the finite symbol characteristics of information and spreading sequences and then the iterative least square with projection method is adopted. Besides, the Cramer‐Rao bound of spreading waveforms is derived in such a circumstance as a performance benchmark. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified via simulation experiments.
