Low complexity frequency domain equalization of MIMO channels with applications to MIMO-CDMA systems

Andreas Peter Burg

Conference paper
Abstract

CDMA and MIMO-CDMA systems using RAKE receivers are heavily limited by self- and multiple-access-interference. Linear equalization is a means to remove this interference, however it is often not practical due to the enormous complexity, especially in the MIMO case. This paper presents an approach to greatly reduce the complexity of linear MIMO equalizers. It discusses the complexity reduction of the equalizer itself and describes a suboptimal low-complexity method to compute its coefficients. The application of frequency domain equalization using the overlap/add FFT method to MIMO systems is suggested. The coefficients of the joint equalizer/MIMO detector are also derived in the frequency domain, based on an approximation of an MMSE criterion. Performance results in terms of BER are quantified through simulations of a MIMO-extended UMTS-FDD downlink.

MIMO
In radio, multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) (ˈmaɪmoʊ,_ˈmiːmoʊ) is a method for multiplying the capacity of a radio link using multiple transmission and receiving antennas to exploit multipath propagation. MIMO has become an essential element of wireless communication standards including IEEE 802.11n (Wi-Fi 4), IEEE 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5), HSPA+ (3G), WiMAX, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). More recently, MIMO has been applied to power-line communication for three-wire installations as part of the ITU G.
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing
In telecommunications, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a type of digital transmission used in digital modulation for encoding digital (binary) data on multiple carrier frequencies. OFDM has developed into a popular scheme for wideband digital communication, used in applications such as digital television and audio broadcasting, DSL internet access, wireless networks, power line networks, and 4G/5G mobile communications. OFDM is a frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) scheme that was introduced by Robert W.
Complexity class
In computational complexity theory, a complexity class is a set of computational problems "of related resource-based complexity". The two most commonly analyzed resources are time and memory. In general, a complexity class is defined in terms of a type of computational problem, a model of computation, and a bounded resource like time or memory. In particular, most complexity classes consist of decision problems that are solvable with a Turing machine, and are differentiated by their time or space (memory) requirements.
