Single-carrier time-domain space-time equalization algorithms for the SDMA uplink

Single-carrier time-domain space-time equalization algorithms for the SDMA uplink
Single-carrier time-domain space-time equalization algorithms for the SDMA uplink

In this treatise I explore different detection algorithms for the employment in multiple-antenna aided wireless mobile communication systems. More explicitly, I explore the issue of detecting spatially-multiplexed information-carrying signals.

Specifically, in Chapter 2 I discuss several detection schemes, namely the linear Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE), the linear Minimum Bit Error Rate (MBER), the Bayesian as well as a novel Optimized Hierarchical Recursive Search Algorithm (OHRSA)-based detector, when operating in a narrowband communication environment. Furthermore, both the computational complexity and the achievable turbo-coded Bit Error Rate (BER) performance are characterized.

In Chapter 3 I extend the narrowband detection strategies discussed in Chapter 2 to Space-Time Equalization (STE) algorithms, which also may benefit from Decision Feedback (DF). In addition to DF a further complexity reduction scheme is proposed for the OHRSA-aided STE, which exploits the specific characteristics of both the wideband channel and the proposed DF-STE. In comparison to the full Maximum Likelihood (ML) STE, the proposed detector is capable of achieving a complexity reduction, which is several orders of magnitude.

In Chapter 4 I extend the detectors of Chapter 2 to Soft-Input Soft-Output (SISO) detection algorithms and employ them in multiple-stage concatenated iterative systems. In order to analyze the behaviour of these multi-stage systems I introduce a new 3-Dimensional (3D) Extrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) chart analysis. The proposed iterative Bayesian detector as well as the novel Reduced-complexity Max-Log (RML) detector approach the channel capacity limit within the range of 1 dB.

Abstract

In this treatise I explore different detection algorithms for the employment in multiple-antenna aided wireless mobile communication systems. More explicitly, I explore the issue of detecting spatially-multiplexed information-carrying signals.

Specifically, in Chapter 2 I discuss several detection schemes, namely the linear Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE), the linear Minimum Bit Error Rate (MBER), the Bayesian as well as a novel Optimized Hierarchical Recursive Search Algorithm (OHRSA)-based detector, when operating in a narrowband communication environment. Furthermore, both the computational complexity and the achievable turbo-coded Bit Error Rate (BER) performance are characterized.

In Chapter 3 I extend the narrowband detection strategies discussed in Chapter 2 to Space-Time Equalization (STE) algorithms, which also may benefit from Decision Feedback (DF). In addition to DF a further complexity reduction scheme is proposed for the OHRSA-aided STE, which exploits the specific characteristics of both the wideband channel and the proposed DF-STE. In comparison to the full Maximum Likelihood (ML) STE, the proposed detector is capable of achieving a complexity reduction, which is several orders of magnitude.

In Chapter 4 I extend the detectors of Chapter 2 to Soft-Input Soft-Output (SISO) detection algorithms and employ them in multiple-stage concatenated iterative systems. In order to analyze the behaviour of these multi-stage systems I introduce a new 3-Dimensional (3D) Extrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) chart analysis. The proposed iterative Bayesian detector as well as the novel Reduced-complexity Max-Log (RML) detector approach the channel capacity limit within the range of 1 dB.
