Abstract
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) can be combined to obtain a promising candidate for next generation wireless communications. However, like a single- input single output (SISO) systems one main disadvantage of MIMO-OFDM is high sensitivity to nonlinear distortion that results in significant loss in power efficiency and performance. In order to improve overall system performance this paper introduces a new iterative method for the detection of nonlinearly distorted symbols received by the receiver of the space-frequency block coded (SFBC) MIMOOFDM transmission system. The proposed approach is based on the Bussgang theorem application and consists in iterative estimation and accurate cancellation of the nonlinear distortion due to the high power amplifier of the transmitter. The numerical performance evaluation shows that the proposed scheme can achieve significant performance improvement compared to conventional receivers.
