Abstract

In order to meet the high data rate, large capacity and low latency in LTE, advanced MIMO technology has been introduced in LTE system, which becomes one of the core technologies in physical layer. In a variety of MIMO detection algorithms, the ZF and MMSE linear detection algorithms are the most simple, but the performance is poor. MLD algorithm can achieve optimal detection performance, but it’s too complexity to be applied in practice. CLSD algorithm has similar detection performance and lower complexity with the MLD algorithm, but the uncertainty of complexity will bring hardware difficulties. FCLSD algorithm can maximize the advantages of CLSD algorithm and solve difficult problems in practice. Based on advanced FCLSD algorithm and combined with LTE / LTE-A practical system applications, this article designed two improved algorithms. The two improved algorithms can be flexibly and adaptively used in various antenna configurations and modulation scene in LTE / LTE-A spatial multiplexing MIMO system. The Simulation results show that the improved algorithm can achieve an approximate performance to the original FCLSD algorithm; in addition, it has a fixed complexity and could be carried out by parallel processing.
