Low Complexity V-BLAST MIMO-OFDM Detector by Successive Iterations Reduction
V-BLAST detection method suffers large computational complexity due to its
successive detection of symbols. In this paper, we propose a modified V-BLAST
algorithm to decrease the computational complexity by reducing the number of
detection iterations required in MIMO communication systems. We begin by
showing the existence of a maximum number of iterations, beyond which, no
significant improvement is obtained. We establish a criterion for the number of
maximum effective iterations. We propose a modified algorithm that uses the
measured SNR to dynamically set the number of iterations to achieve an
acceptable bit-error rate. Then, we replace the feedback algorithm with an
approximate linear function to reduce the complexity. Simulations show that
significant reduction in computational complexity is achieved compared to the
ordinary V-BLAST, while maintaining a good BER performance.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures, 2 tables. The final publication is available at

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
paper has been accepted for publication in IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in
Signal Processing (JSTSP): Spl. Iss. on Managing Complexity in Multiuser MIMO

Efficient Optimal Joint Channel Estimation and Data Detection for Massive MIMO Systems
In this paper, we propose an efficient optimal joint channel estimation and
data detection algorithm for massive MIMO wireless systems. Our algorithm is
optimal in terms of the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT). For massive
MIMO systems, we show that the expected complexity of our algorithm grows
polynomially in the channel coherence time. Simulation results demonstrate
significant performance gains of our algorithm compared with suboptimal
non-coherent detection algorithms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the
first algorithm which efficiently achieves GLRT-optimal non-coherent detections
for massive MIMO systems with general constellations.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, Conferenc
