A Novel Adaptive Detection Scheme based on Parallel Interference Cancellation for V-BLAST System

Abstract

In this paper, in order to reduce the computational complexity of the detector of vertical Bell Laboratories layered space-time (V-BLAST) system over time-varying channels, an adaptive detection scheme is proposed based on parallel interference cancellation (PIC). The presented scheme has three units, which are primary adaptive detector, detection ordering determiner, and adaptive PIC detector. The proposed scheme can employ many of known adaptive algorithms for detection of V-BLAST system. In this paper, we present computational complexity of the proposed scheme using LMS, RLS, APA and AMSER adaptive algorithms and evaluate its performance with numerical simulations.
