This paper presents the robust multiuser detection in synchronous direct sequence-code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems with Maximal Ratio Combiner (MRC) receive diversity over frequency-nonselective, slowly fading Nakagami-m channels in a non-Gaussian environment. Average probability of error is derived for decorrelating detector over single path Nakagami-m fading channel. A new M-estimator proposed to robustify the detector is studied and analyzed. Simulation results show that the new M-estimator outperforms linear decorrelating detector, the Huber, and the Hampel estimator based detectors.
