Sub-Optimal Soft-Output MAP Detector with Lattice Reduction in MIMO-OFDM System

The use of lattice reduction (LR) has been shown to be a very effective method for signal detection in multiple antenna systems. In this paper, the performance of the sub-optimal soft-output maximum a posteriori (MAP) detector with lattice reduction is studied in multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system. We propose two polynomial-time methods to generate the desired size candidate list in the reduced lattice. The sub-optimal soft-output MAP detector with these list generation methods provides a near-optimal performance in uncorrelated MIMO-OFDM systems, but with significantly reduced computational complexity
