Abstract

This paper investigates iterative frequency domain techniques for the reception of spatially multiplexed single carrier signals transmitted over frequency-selective multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels. The investigated equalizers are based on the soft-cancellation (SC) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) altering technique for turbo-coded single carrier point-to-point MIMO systems. We consider two different transmit antenna separation techniques in the frequency domain: (1) antenna-by-antenna (AA) and (2) joint over antenna techniques (JA). (1) aims to separate signals in different layers by MMSE filtering antenna-by-antenna, whereas (2) aims to detect the composite signal comprised of the signals transmitted from the multiple antennas. In (2) the composite received signal is decomposed by using the spatial maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) algorithm. We evaluate performances in terms of frame error rate (FER) and throughput in point-to-point MIMO frequency-selective fading channels. Impacts of spatial correlation on performance of the two detectors are also investigated in this paper.
