DETECTING APPARATUS AND METHOD IN MIMO SYSTEM

摘要

Provided are a detecting apparatus in a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system and a method thereof. The apparatus includes a first detector for decoding a received signal, to thereby generate a decoded vector; a candidate elements decision unit for calculating an instantaneous signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) value for each element of the decoded vector, and deciding candidate elements for estimating a transmission data based on the decoded vector by comparing the calculated instantaneous SINR value and a threshold value; a signal eliminator for generating a signal with respect to the candidate elements determined in the candidate elements decision unit and outputting a modified signal by subtracting the signal from the received signal; and a second detector for decoding the modified signal received from the signal eliminator based on a more precise detection method than the first detector.
