LR-Aided MIMO Detectors under Correlated and Imperfectly Estimated Channels

In this contribution, lattice reduction (LR) technique is applied to improve the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detector performance under correlated channels and imperfect channel estimation constrains. Zero-forcing, minimum mean squared error, ordered successive interference cancellation and sphere decoding (SD) detectors are analysed taking into consideration (a) different correlated fading channel indexes, (b) increasing spectral efficiency, by combining number of transmit antennas and modulation formats, and (c) channel coefficient error estimations. Analysis of correlated channel effects over the MIMO system performance equipped with different LR-aided detectors are carried out, indicating the robustness of those detectors and the SD–MIMO detector deficiency to deal with such channel condition. Besides, computational complexities are compared aiming to determine the best LR–MIMO detection scheme under the perspective of performance-complexity tradeoff.
