Turbo receivers for narrow-band MIMO systems

MIMO systems promise high spectral efficiency attainable if appropriate signal processing algorithms are used at the receiver. The paper compares several turbo-processing algorithms which may be used in narrow-band systems. The algorithms are studied in the common simulation setup for two transmitter classes defined as horizontal and vertical encoding. The coded BER and BLER are compared to their respective lower-bounds using numerical simulations.
