Gram-Schmidt Combined LLL Lattice-Reduction Aided Detection in MIMO Systems
Abstract
This paper proposes an improved lattice-reduction aided (LRA) MMSE detection scheme, based on the Gram-Schmidt (GS) procedure. The proposed scheme reduces the column vectors of the MIMO channel matrix, by using the LLL algorithm followed by the GS procedure in order to transform the channel matrix into a new one which has mutually purely orthogonal column vectors. Compared to the conventional LRA MMSE detector, the proposed detector achieves a very good BER performance, almost equivalent to those using the ML detector in the 4 × 4 MIMO system at the cost of a slightly larger computational complexity.
