High-Rate Space-Time Coded Large MIMO Systems: Low-Complexity Detection and Channel Estimation
In this paper, we present a low-complexity algorithm for detection in
high-rate, non-orthogonal space-time block coded (STBC) large-MIMO systems that
achieve high spectral efficiencies of the order of tens of bps/Hz. We also
present a training-based iterative detection/channel estimation scheme for such
large STBC MIMO systems. Our simulation results show that excellent bit error
rate and nearness-to-capacity performance are achieved by the proposed
multistage likelihood ascent search (M-LAS) detector in conjunction with the
proposed iterative detection/channel estimation scheme at low complexities. The
fact that we could show such good results for large STBCs like 16x16 and 32x32
STBCs from Cyclic Division Algebras (CDA) operating at spectral efficiencies in
excess of 20 bps/Hz (even after accounting for the overheads meant for pilot
based training for channel estimation and turbo coding) establishes the
effectiveness of the proposed detector and channel estimator. We decode perfect
codes of large dimensions using the proposed detector. With the feasibility of
such a low-complexity detection/channel estimation scheme, large-MIMO systems
with tens of antennas operating at several tens of bps/Hz spectral efficiencies
can become practical, enabling interesting high data rate wireless
applications.Comment: v3: Performance/complexity comparison of the proposed scheme with
other large-MIMO architectures/detectors has been added (Sec. IV-D). The

MMSE Optimal Algebraic Space-Time Codes
Design of Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) for Maximum Likelihood (ML)
reception has been predominantly the main focus of researchers. However, the ML
decoding complexity of STBCs becomes prohibitive large as the number of
transmit and receive antennas increase. Hence it is natural to resort to a
suboptimal reception technique like linear Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE)
receiver. Barbarossa et al and Liu et al have independently derived necessary
and sufficient conditions for a full rate linear STBC to be MMSE optimal, i.e
achieve least Symbol Error Rate (SER). Motivated by this problem, certain
existing high rate STBC constructions from crossed product algebras are
identified to be MMSE optimal. Also, it is shown that a certain class of codes
from cyclic division algebras which are special cases of crossed product
algebras are MMSE optimal. Hence, these STBCs achieve least SER when MMSE
reception is employed and are fully diverse when ML reception is employed.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, journal version to appear in IEEE Transactions on

A universal space-time architecture for multiple-antenna aided systems
In this tutorial, we first review the family of conventional multiple-antenna techniques, and then we provide a general overview of the recent concept of the powerful Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) family based on a universal Space-Time Shift Keying (STSK) philosophy. When appropriately configured, the proposed STSK scheme has the potential of outperforming conventional MIMO arrangements
Construction of MIMO MAC Codes Achieving the Pigeon Hole Bound
This paper provides a general construction method for multiple-input
multiple-output multiple access channel codes (MIMO MAC codes) that have so
called generalized full rank property. The achieved constructions give a
positive answer to the question whether it is generally possible to reach the
so called pigeon hole bound, that is an upper bound for the decay of
determinants of MIMO-MAC channel codes.Comment: 5 pages, nofigures, conferenc
