Despite the enormous amount of academic and industrial research in the past 20 years on interference-aware receivers and the large performance improvements promised by these multi-user techniques, today's receivers still generally treat interference as background noise. In this paper, the authors enumerate the reasons for this widespread scepticism, and discuss how current and future trends will increase the need for and viability of multi-user receivers for both the uplink, where many asynchronous users will be simultaneously detected, and the downlink, where users will be scheduled and largely orthogonalized, but the mobile handset will still need to cope with a few dominant interfering base stations.
