With the increasing demands on high data rate, there has been growing interests in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology based on spatial multiplexing (SM) since it can transmit independent information in each spatial stream. Recent standards such as 3GPP LTE-advanced and IEEE 802.11ac support up to eight spatial streams, and massive MIMO and mm-wave systems that are expected to be included in beyond 4G systems are considering employment of tens to hundreds of antennas. Since the complexity of the optimum maximum likelihood based detection method increases exponentially with the number of antennas, low-complexity SM MIMO detection becomes more critical as the number of antenna increases. In this paper, we first review the results on the detection schemes for SM MIMO systems. In addition, massive MIMO reception schemes based on simple linear filtering which does not require exponential increment of complexity will be explained, followed by brief description on receiver design for future high dimensional SM MIMO systems.

Recently, researches about MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) system are being studied actively due to high-capacity and high-speed communication. However, MIMO system has many RF(Radio Frequency) chains according to many array antennas. So, MIMO system has disadvantages such as high-complexity and high-power-consumption. Also, it is impossible to miniaturize the antenna dimension. In order to solve these problems, beamspace MIMO system using ESPAR(Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator) antenna was proposed. It is possible to reduce the complexity and the power-consumption, because it has single RF chain by using one active antenna and several parasitic elements. In this paper, in order to improve the security, for the first time, chaos communication algorithm is applied to QPSK modulated beamspace MIMO system using ESPAR antenna. We define as chaos QPSK beamspace MIMO system, and evaluate the SER performance. Also, we confirm that QPSK symbols can be made by changing the reactance values of parasitic elements, and evaluate the SER performance of this system.

This paper proposes an area-efficient pipeline FFT processor for MIMO-OFDM systems with four transmitting and four receiving antennas. Since the MIMO-OFDM system transmits multiple data streams, the complexity for the MIMO-OFDM system with a single-channel FFT processor increases linearly with the increase of the number of transmit channels. The proposed FFT processor is based on multi-channel structure, and therefore it can efficiently support multiple data streams. With the mixed radix algorithm, the number of non-trivial multiplications of the proposed FFT processor is decreased. The proposed FFT processor is synthesized with CMOS $0.18{\mu}m$ process and reduces the logic gates by 25% over a 4-channel Radix-4 multi-path delay commutator (R4MDC) FFT processor. Since the MIMO-OFDM FFT processor is one of the largest modules in the systems, the proposed FFT processor will be a vast contribution improvement to the low complexity design of MIMO-OFDM systems.

ESPAR(Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator) antenna is the technique for overcoming the problems of space limitation and energy efficiency due to the multiple RF-chain. Conventional MIMO system with multiple antenna requires a large number of RF-chain for transmitting the multiple data because it transmits the data in proportion to the number of antenna. Beamspace MIMO system using the ESPAR antenna which has single RF-chain was proposed for solving the problems caused by using the multiple antenna and RF-chain. In this paper, therefore we propose 2x2 beamspace MIMO system using the 16, 64-QAM modulation and evaluate the performance of this system to reveal that it is possible that beamspace MIMO system can use not only PSK modulation but also QAM modulation. We confirm that QAM symbol can be generated by adjusting reactance of parasitic elements and making reactance set and also we confirm that performance of beamspace MIMO system is similar to the conventional MIMO system by transmitting the QAM symbol made by reactance set through the simulation.

MIMO antenna is a field in which various researches have been actively conducted for a long time, and its design concept is universally well known. However, Unlike conventional MIMO antennas, MIMO antennas for autonomous driving radars, which have recently been attracting attention, are designed in W-band which is a millimeter wave band, and must also meet novel design conditions to satisfy the performance of autonomous driving radars. Therefore, a novel and different approach is required for the design and beam pattern verification of the MIMO antenna for autonomous driving radar. In this paper, a MIMO antenna is designed and the design process to satisfy the conditions of a W-band autonomous driving radar is introduced, and proposes a beam pattern verification method for a W-band MIMO antenna mounted on an autonomous driving radar system.

In this paper, we compare and analyze the spectral efficiency of representative adaptive MIMO algorithms in indoor environments. We first briefly investigate the modulation and demodulation schemes of MIMO algorithms to be compared and then implement adaptive algorithms by using BPSK and square QAM schemes up to 256QAM. We finally compare the spectral efficiency of adaptive MIMO algorithms employing (2$\times$2) or (4$\times$4) antenna array through the computer simulation in indoor environments.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication may provide high spectral efficiency through the deployment of a very large number of antenna elements at the base stations. The gains from massive MIMO communication come from the use of multi-user MIMO on the uplink and downlink, but with a large excess of antennas at the base station compared to the number of served users. Initial work on massive MIMO did not fully address several practical issues associated with its deployment. This paper considers the impact of channel aging on the performance of massive MIMO systems. The effects of channel variation are characterized as a function of different system parameters assuming a simple model for the channel time variations at the transmitter. Channel prediction is proposed to overcome channel aging effects. The analytical results on aging show how capacity is lost due to time variation in the channel. Numerical results in a multicell network show that massive MIMO works even with some channel variation and that channel prediction could partially overcome channel aging effects.
