Techniques for reducing joint detection complexity in a channel-coded multiple-input multiple-output communication system

摘要

A technique for joint detection of channel-coded signals in a multiple-input multiple-output system includes detecting, when a decoded signal associated with a first symbol stream passes a cyclic redundancy check, channel-coded signals in the first symbol stream and a second symbol stream using minimum mean squared error with ordered successive interference cancellation (MMSE-OSIC) based detection. When the decoded signal associated with the first symbol stream fails the cyclic redundancy check, the channel-coded signals in the first and second symbol streams are detected using neighbor search algorithm (NSA) based detection.
