| Shrnutí: | A two-stage list sphere decoding (LSD) algorithm is proposed for under-determined multiple-input multiple-output (UD-MIMO) systems that employ N transmit antennas and M<;N receive antennas. The two-stage LSD algorithm exploits the unique structure of UD-MIMO systems by dividing the N detection layers into two groups. Group 1 contains layers 1 to M that have similar structures as a symmetric MIMO system; while Group 2 contains layers M+1 to N that contribute to the rank deficiency of the channel Gram matrix. Tree search algorithms are used for both groups, but with different search radii. A new method is proposed to adaptively adjust the tree search radius of Group 2 based on the statistical properties of the received signals. The employment of the adaptive tree search can significantly reduce the computation complexity. We also propose a modified channel Gram matrix to combat the rank deficiency problem, and it provides better performance than the generalized Gram matrix used in the Generalized Sphere-Decoding (GSD) algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed two-stage LSD algorithm can reduce the complexity by one to two orders of magnitude with less than 0.1 dB degradation in the Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance. |
