Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) is a technique, which has the potential to increase the capacity of DS-CDMA systems substantially. One of the major criticisms of the technique is that it requires a specific distribution of unequal received powers from the mobile units. In the presence of estimation error, the required distribution becomes even more complicated and it is critical that the users adapt to these required power levels in order to achieve good system performance. In this paper, a simple iterative technique based on the existing power control algorithm for commercial CDMA systems is presented.
