Fuzzy adaptive partial parallel multistage detection for MIMO systems

Vertical Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time (V-BLAST) detection followed by a full parallel interference cancellation (full PIC) or a constant-weight partial parallel interference cancellation (CW-PPIC) scheme has been proposed. However, its performance degrades when the received power of the antenna is unbalanced and/or the system is heavily loaded. Therefore, V-BLAST is proposed, followed by fuzzy adaptive partial parallel multistage detection for MIMO systems. The simulation results show that the error probability of this proposed method is better than that of V-BLAST followed by full PIC or CW-PPIC schemes.
