… … M N … … Soft Decision V-BLAST Algorithm for MIMO Signal Detection Qianlei Liu, Yiu-ming Cheung, Jiming Liu Traditional methods for MIMO signal detection: 1. V-BLAST: low complexity, but ordinary performance 2. Sphere decoding: good performance, but high complexity Objective: How can we get a good tradeoff between performance and complexity for MIMO signal detection? Soft decision (SD) V-BLAST algorithm: In each layer’s detection of V-BLAST algorithm, the results with sufficiently large posterior probabilities are all reserved. The performance can be greatly improved at the cost of limited complexity increasing. An Example: Simulation results: Simulation Results: Explanation: For V-BLAST, any decision error in a previous layer can seriouslyworsen the performance in subsequent layers, while SD V-BLAST is much more robust.
