On the Proximity Factors of Lattice Reduction-Aided Decoding
Lattice reduction-aided decoding features reduced decoding complexity and
near-optimum performance in multi-input multi-output communications. In this
paper, a quantitative analysis of lattice reduction-aided decoding is
presented. To this aim, the proximity factors are defined to measure the
worst-case losses in distances relative to closest point search (in an infinite
lattice). Upper bounds on the proximity factors are derived, which are
functions of the dimension of the lattice alone. The study is then extended
to the dual-basis reduction. It is found that the bounds for dual basis
reduction may be smaller. Reasonably good bounds are derived in many cases. The
constant bounds on proximity factors not only imply the same diversity order in
fading channels, but also relate the error probabilities of (infinite) lattice
decoding and lattice reduction-aided decoding.Comment: remove redundant figure
Integer-Forcing MIMO Linear Receivers Based on Lattice Reduction
A new architecture called integer-forcing (IF) linear receiver has been
recently proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels,
wherein an appropriate integer linear combination of the received symbols has
to be computed as a part of the decoding process. In this paper, we propose a
method based on Hermite-Korkine-Zolotareff (HKZ) and Minkowski lattice basis
reduction algorithms to obtain the integer coefficients for the IF receiver. We
show that the proposed method provides a lower bound on the ergodic rate, and
achieves the full receive diversity. Suitability of complex
Lenstra-Lenstra-Lovasz (LLL) lattice reduction algorithm (CLLL) to solve the
problem is also investigated. Furthermore, we establish the connection between
the proposed IF linear receivers and lattice reduction-aided MIMO detectors
(with equivalent complexity), and point out the advantages of the former class
of receivers over the latter. For the and MIMO
channels, we compare the coded-block error rate and bit error rate of the
proposed approach with that of other linear receivers. Simulation results show
that the proposed approach outperforms the zero-forcing (ZF) receiver, minimum
mean square error (MMSE) receiver, and the lattice reduction-aided MIMO
detectors.Comment: 9 figures and 11 pages. Modified the title, abstract and some parts

DMT Optimality of LR-Aided Linear Decoders for a General Class of Channels, Lattice Designs, and System Models
The work identifies the first general, explicit, and non-random MIMO
encoder-decoder structures that guarantee optimality with respect to the
diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT), without employing a computationally
expensive maximum-likelihood (ML) receiver. Specifically, the work establishes
the DMT optimality of a class of regularized lattice decoders, and more
importantly the DMT optimality of their lattice-reduction (LR)-aided linear
counterparts. The results hold for all channel statistics, for all channel
dimensions, and most interestingly, irrespective of the particular lattice-code
applied. As a special case, it is established that the LLL-based LR-aided
linear implementation of the MMSE-GDFE lattice decoder facilitates DMT optimal
decoding of any lattice code at a worst-case complexity that grows at most
linearly in the data rate. This represents a fundamental reduction in the
decoding complexity when compared to ML decoding whose complexity is generally
exponential in rate.
The results' generality lends them applicable to a plethora of pertinent
communication scenarios such as quasi-static MIMO, MIMO-OFDM, ISI,
cooperative-relaying, and MIMO-ARQ channels, in all of which the DMT optimality
of the LR-aided linear decoder is guaranteed. The adopted approach yields
insight, and motivates further study, into joint transceiver designs with an
improved SNR gap to ML decoding.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure (3 subfigures), submitted to the IEEE Transactions
