Systems and methods for providing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection, comprising a leaf node predictor for receiving a processed communications stream, computing at least one channel metric corresponding to the communications stream for a given channel realization by optimizing a predetermined probability, and analytically generating at least one parameter to output, which at least one parameter corresponds to at least one predicted best leaf node candidate for the given channel realization. The leaf-node predictor may generate, in real-time and without using a look-up table, at least one parameter directly from a given channel metric. Some embodiments analytically generate at least one parameter value for use by a MIMO detector corresponding to a channel metric and store the generated at least one parameter value and corresponding channel metric in a look-up table.

摘要:
A method for building a look-up table for a receiver in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection system simulates a MIMO detector over many channel realizations, tracks channel metric and parameter values used for each channel realization resulting from such simulating, and stores, in a look-up table, best values of the tracked values used for a particular channel metric.
摘要:
Embodiments provide systems and methods for a novel multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) equalization technique that produces a channel matrix that contains partly real coefficients and partly complex coefficients, referred to herein as a hybrid-MIMO equalization. MIMO detectors can exploit the hybrid-MIMO equalization to reduce complexity. Some embodiments provide systems and methods for equalizing a communication channel comprising receiving as an input a channel output vector, dividing the input into two vectors, a first vector that remains a complex number and a second vector that contains only real numbers, separating the second vector into its real and imaginary components, and regrouping the first and second vectors into a hybrid channel output vector that contains both real and complex coefficients.
摘要:
A method and system for performing Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (“MIMO”) detection that reduces complexity by decomposing MIMO detection problem into two less complex problems, Candidate List generation and Interference Cancellation (“CLIC”). Embodiments of the CLIC framework parse an N element channel output into a first set containing S elements and a second set containing N−S elements. A first list of candidate vectors is generated from the first set of elements. A set of interference cancelled elements is generated by using the first list of candidate vectors to cancel interference from the second set of elements. A second list of candidate vectors is generated from the set of interference cancelled elements. A minimum cost is computed for each bit of the candidate vectors and from the costs a log-likelihood ratio is computed.
摘要:
The present invention provides a versatile system for selectively spreading carrier data across multiple carrier paths within an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system, particularly an ultra-wideband (UWB) system. The present invention provides a data input, which passes data to a randomizer. The data then passes to a convolutional code function, the output of which is punctured by puncturing function. An interleaver function receives the punctured code data, and cooperatively operates with a mapper element to prepare the coded data for pre-transmission conversion by an IFFT. The mapper element comprises a dual carrier modulation function, which associates and transforms two punctured code data elements into a format for transmission on two separate signal tones.

A reduced search space minimum distance decoding method provides average probability of error performance close to optimal MAP decoding. The decoding algorithm provides dramatic complexity reductions compared with MAP decoding. A a sub-optimal decoder receives a collection of signal vectors y1 . . . yk, with k denoting a positive integer and generates an estimated transmitted multidimensional symbol {tilde over (S)}. The estimated transmitted multidimensional symbol {tilde over (S)} is decoded using hierarchical subset decoding a subset is determined therefrom. A reduced search space V is generated and minimum distance decoding is used to decode the received symbol vectors y1 . . . yk in the reduced search space V. one or more of the following: an estimated multidimensional symbol {tilde over (S)}, soft bit information, or hard bit information are cienerated therefrom.
