ABSTRACT
This paper presents an iterative soft decision based complex multiple input multiple output (MIMO) decoding algorithm, which reduces the complexity of Maximum Likelihood (ML) detector. We develop a novel iterative complex K-best decoder exploiting the techniques of lattice reduction for 8×8 MIMO. Besides list size, a new adjustable variable has been introduced in order to control the on-demand child expansion. Following this method, we obtain 6.9 to 8.0 dB improvement over real domain K-best decoder and 1.4 to 2.5 dB better performance compared to iterative conventional complex decoder for 4th iteration and 64-QAM modulation scheme. We also demonstrate the significance of new parameter on bit error rate. The proposed decoder not only increases the performance, but also reduces the computational complexity to a certain level.
