This paper proposes a new signal detection method, called QR-OSIC with Candidates (QOC) method, for spatially multiplexed multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. By using the ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) algorithm and the maximum likelihood (ML) metric, the proposed method achieves near-ML performance without requiring a large number of candidates. Although the proposed method can be used for both hard and soft decoding systems, it is especially useful for soft decoding systems since the LLR values for all the bits can be efficiently computed without using LLR estimation. The proposed method is also suitable for VLSI implementation since it leads to fixed throughput system.

In this paper, we propose a novel detection ordering technique for MIMO signal detection methods based on QR decomposition and successive interference cancellation (SIC). Recently, new signal detection methods for spatially multiplexed (SM) MIMO systems were proposed, where all the constellation points are tried as the first layer symbol, and the remaining layer symbols are estimated via SIC, producing candidate vectors. Finally, the ML metric values are calculated for the candidate vectors, that are again used to select the best symbol vector. It was also shown that the ordering method in the conventional V-BLAST is not suitable to these signal detection methods. In this paper, we propose a novel ordering method, and we show via computer simulations that the proposed ordering method improves the error performance.

Since a sufficient condition on the larger rate volume of 3-user correlated information sources (CIS)/non-successive interference cancellation (SIC) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) over independent information sources (IIS)/SIC NOMA has not been investigated, this paper analyzes such a sufficient condition. First, we demonstrates that the rate volume of 3-user CIS/SIC NOMA is the same as a portion of the rate volume of 3-user IIS/SIC NOMA. Then, by identifying a dominant rate region, we calculate the sufficient condition on the larger rate volume of 3-user CIS/non-SIC NOMA over 3-user IIS/SIC NOMA. We also show that with such condition, the rate volume of 3-user CIS/non-SIC NOMA can be larger than that of 3-user IIS/SIC NOMA.

This paper investigates the achievable rate volumes for non-successive interference cancellation(SIC) non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA) schemes, especially for 3-user correlated information sources(CIS). First, the closed-form expressions for the achievable rate volumes of non-SIC 3-user CIS NOMA are derived. Then it is numerically shown that the large correlation coefficients, as the achievable rate volumes of non-SIC 3-user CIS NOMA is larger than that of conventional SIC 3-user independent information sources(IIS) NOMA. We also demonstrate by various comparisons that the impact of the correlation coefficients of weaker channel gain users on achievable rate volume is more significant than those of stronger channel gain users.

This paper investigates the achievable data rate for the single-user decoding(SUD) receiver, which does not perform successive interference cancellation(SIC), in contrast to the conventional SIC non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA) scheme. First, the closed-form expression for the achievable data rate of SUD NOMA with correlated information sources(CIS) is derived, for the stronger channel user. Then it is shown that for the stronger channel user, the achievable data rate of SUD NOMA with independent information sources(IIS) is generally inferior to that of conventional SIC NOMA with IIS. However, for especially highly CIS, we show that the achievable data rate of SUD NOMA is greatly superior to that of conventional SIC NOMA. In addition, to verify the impact of CIS on the achievable data rate of SUD, the extensive comparisons of the achievable data rates for the SUD receiver and the SIC receiver are compared for various correlation coefficients.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) where all users share the entire time and frequency resource has paid attention as one of the key technologies to enhance the spectral efficiency and the total throughput. Nevertheless, as the number of users and SIC error increase, the inter-user interference and the residual interference due to the SIC error also increase, resulting in performance degradation. In order to mitigate the performance degradation, we propose grouping-based NOMA system. In the proposed scheme, all users are divided into two groups based on the distance between the BS and each user, where one utilizes the first half of the bandwidth and the other utilizes the rest in the orthogonal manner. On the other hand, users in each group share the spectrum in the non-orthogonal manner. Grouping users can reduce both the inter-user interference and residual interference due to the SIC error, so it can outperform conventional NOMA system, especially in case that the number of users and the SIC error increase. Based on that, we also present the hybrid operation of the conventional and the proposed NOMA systems. In numerical results, the total throughput of the proposed NOMA systems is compared with that of the conventional NOMA systems with regard to the number of users and SIC error. It is confirmed that the proposed NOMA system outperforms the conventional NOMA system as the number of users and the SIC error increase.

We present an improved V-BLAST receiver that cancels co-channel interference (CCI), based on reliability normalization over frequency-selective channels, in log-likelihood ratio (LLR) sense. The performance has been evaluated in the exponential decay channel model with various normalized ms delay spread and different filter taps. It is also compared with the ordered successive interference cancellation-decision feedback equalizer (OSIC-DFE). Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed receiver with (2,1) is close to OSIC-DFE with (6,3) at normalized ms delay spread 0.5 symbol periods.

In this paper, various ultra-wideband (UWB) spatial multiplxing (SM) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) receivers based on a prerake diversity combining scheme are discussed and their performance is analyzed. Several UWB MIMO detection approaches such as zero forcing (ZF), minimum mean square error (MMSE), ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC), sorted QR decomposition (SQRD), and maximum likelihood (ML) are considered in order to cope with inter-channel interference. The UWB SM systems based on transmitter-side multipath preprocessing and receiver-side MIMO detection can either boost the transmission data rate or offer significant diversity gain and improved BER performance. The error performance and complexity of linear and nonlinear detection algorithms are comparatively studied on a lognormal multipath fading channel.

In this paper, we introduce a modified interference cancellation scheme to overcome MAI in DS-CDMA. Among ICs(Interference Cancellers), PIC(Parallel IC) requires the more complexity, and SIC(Successive IC) faces the problems of the long delay time. Most of all, the adaptive detector achieves the good BER performance using the adaptive Inter conducted iteration algorithm. So it requires many iterations. To resolve the problems of them, we propose an improved adaptive detector that the received signal removed MAI through the sorting scheme and the cancellation method are fed into the adaptive filter. Because the improved input signal is fed into the adaptive filter, it has the same BER performance only using smaller iterations than the conventional adaptive detector, and the proposed detector having adaptive filter requires less complexity than the other detectors.
