Evaluation of MMSE-Based Iterative Soft Detection Schemes for Coded Massive MIMO System

2019 
There have been a number of researches on soft iterative detection and decoding scheme for coded multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Minimum mean square error (MMSE)-based detection schemes were often considered for massive MIMO systems, due to their reasonable complexity and performance tradeoff. This paper evaluates a number of MMSE-based soft iterative detection schemes for massive MIMO systems, with new proposals to improve the performances and to reduce the complexity. We consider joint iterative detection and decoding schemes for a coded massive MIMO system, and various kinds of MMSE-based soft detection methods proposed in the literatures are investigated. By utilizing the diagonal approximation of the channel matrix, we propose efficient soft MMSE filtering methods in combination with soft interference cancellation techniques and a compact soft bit estimation method. In addition, new matrix inversion-less soft MMSE methods are proposed for joint iterative detections. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed methods clearly contribute to the reduction of the complexity of the conventional methods, and performance enhancement.
