In orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system the time selectivity of wireless channel introduces intercarrier interference (ICI), which degrades system performance in proportion to Doppler frequency. To mitigate the ICI effect, we can generally employ a classical zero-forcing (ZF) equalizer. However, the ZF scheme requires an inverse of a large matrix, which results in prohibitively high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose a low complexity ZF equalization scheme for suppressing the ICI caused by highly time-varying channels in OFDM systems. From the fact that the ICI on a subcarrier is mainly caused by several neighboring subcarriers, the proposed scheme exploits a numerical approximation for matrix inversion based on Neumann's Series (truncated second order). To further improve performance, the partial ICI cancellation technique is also used with reduced complexity. Complexity analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides the advantage of reducing computational complexity significantly, while achieving almost the same performance as that of the classical ZF a roach.

This paper focuses on the simplified receiver design for multi-user circular block oversampled filter bank (CB-OSFB) uplink systems. Through application of discrete Fourier transform (DFT), the special banded structure and circular properties of the modulation matrix in the frequency domain of each user are derived. By exploiting the newly derived properties, a simplified zero-forcing (ZF) receiver is proposed for multi-user CB-OSFB uplink systems in the multipath channels. In the proposed receiver, the matrix inversion operation of the large dimension multi-user equivalent channel matrix is transformed into DFTs and smaller size matrix inversion operations. Simulation is given to show that the proposed ZF receiver can dramatically reduce the computational complexity while with almost the same symbol error rate as that of the traditional ZF receiver.

Compared to the MIMO system using the spatial multiplexing methods and the MIMO system using the diversity scheme achieved a high rate, but the lower the diversity gain to improve the data transmission reliability should separate the spatial stream at the MIMO receiver. In this paper, we compared Channel capacity detection methods with the Lattice code, the 3-user interference channel and linear channel interference detection methods ZF (Zero Forcing) and MMSE (Minimum Mean Square Error) detection methods. The channel is a Diagonal channel. In other words, Diagonal channel is confirmed by the inverse matrix satisfies the properties of Jacket are element-wise inverse to $[H]_N[H]_N^{-1}=[I]_N$.

In this paper, binary pulse-antipodal modulation (2PAM) direct-sequence (DS) ultra-wideband (UWB) system is applied to multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system using vertical bell lab layered space-time (V-BLAST) structure to achieve high-data-rate communications over indoor wireless channels. The relationship between antenna dimension and BER performance of 2PAM DS UWB MIMO system is discussed. In the receiver of UWB-MIMO system, various MIMO detection algorithms such as zero-forcing (ZF), ZF-ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC), minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE), MMSE-OSIC and maximum likelihood (ML) are comparatively studied.

An adaptive K-best detection scheme is proposed for MIMO systems. The proposed scheme changes the number of survivor paths, K based on the degree of the reliability of Zero-Forcing (ZF) estimates at each K-best step. The critical drawback of the fixed K-best detection is that the correct path's metric may be temporarily larger than K minimum paths metrics due to imperfect interference cancellation by the incorrect ZF estimates. Based on the observation that there are insignificant differences among path metrics (ML distances) when the ZF estimates are incorrect, we use the ratio of the minimum ML distance to the second minimum as a reliability indicator for the ZF estimates. So, we adaptively select the value of K according to the ML distance ratio. It is shown that the proposed scheme achieves the significant improvement over the conventional fixed K-best scheme. The proposed scheme effectively achieves the performance of large K-best system while maintaining the overall average computation complexity much smaller than that of large K system.

It has been known that the DCMP(Directionally Constrained Minimization of Power) and the ZF(Zero Forcing) can improve the SINR performance of an array antenna system by using spatial signature of wireless channel. This paper analyzes the performance of DCMP and ZF in multiple scattering environments. To obtain the spatial signature of wireless channel. both DOA(Directional of Arrival) and AS(Angular spread) of the received signals were estimated by using ESPRIT. The performance of the DCMP and the ZF was analyzed theoretically. By computer simulation of SINR performance was evaluated.

In this paper, a best channel matrix selection scheme(BCMS) is proposed to approximate maximum likelihood(ML) detection for a multiple-input multiple-output system. For a one stage BCMS scheme, one of the transmitted symbols is selected to perform ML detection and the other symbols are detected by zero forcing(ZF). To increase the diversity of the symbols that are detected by ZF, multi-stage BCMS detection scheme is used to further improve the system performance. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed BCMS scheme can approach that of ML detection with a significant reduction in complexity.

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 letter, an ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) scheme is applied for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection in ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems. The error rate expression of an OSIC receiver on a log-normal multipath fading channel is theoretically derived in a closed form solution. Its bit error rate performance is analytically compared with that of a zero forcing receiver in the UWB MIMO detection scheme followed by RAKE combining.

In this paper, we study a power allocation technique for Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) in multi-user multiple input single output (MISO) downlink systems. In contrast to previous approaches, a mutual information based method is exploited for maximizing the sum rate of zero-forcing THP systems. Then, we propose a simple power allocation algorithm which assigns proper power level for modulo operated users. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms a conventional water-filling method, and it provides similar performance with near optimal method with much reduced complexity.
