Abstract Complex-valued QR factorization is a fundamental but computationally intensive operation commonly used in various MIMO signal detection algorithms. In this paper, a novel factorization scheme based on Givens rotations and symmetrical nullification was devised. The proposed scheme successfully integrates the MMSE criterion into factorization and can achieve better BER performance. Instead of working on a complex-valued domain, the scheme starts with a block-wise symmetric real-valued matrix counterpart. By exploiting the symmetrical property, the proposed scheme effectively reduced almost half of the computing complexity. Based on the presented scheme, a novel systolic array design featuring fully parallel and deeply pipelined processing was developed subject to the EWC 802.11n recommendation. Architecture optimization measures such as look-up table (LUT) free CORDIC implementations and hardware sharing among scaling operations were employed to minimize the hardware design complexity. Post layout simulation results using TSMC 0.18μm process indicate the proposed design, with a gate count of 233K and a maximum clock rate of 120 MHz, can admit a new 4×4 complex matrix for MMSE based factorization in every 8 clock cycles (66.7ns).
