This invention is related to a low-complexity MIMO detector in a wireless communication system with near optimal performance. Initial symbol estimation is performed for a transmitted symbol vector. The soft information of the transmitted symbol vector can be more accurately calculated by deemphasizing the LLRs associated with symbols belonging to weak channels that may suffer from poor initial estimation. By combining aspects of both the linear detection and the ML detection, the complexity of the proposed detector becomes orders of magnitude lower than that of a ML detector, but the performance is very close to that of an ML detector. |
