ABSTRACT
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have been widely acclaimed in order to provide high data rates. Recently Lattice Reduction (LR) aided detectors have been proposed to achieve near Maximum Likelihood (ML) performance with low complexity. In this paper, we develop the fixed point design of an iterative soft decision based LR-aided K-best decoder, which reduces the complexity of existing sphere decoder. A simulation based word-length optimization is presented for physical implementation of the K-best decoder. Simulations show that the fixed point result of 16 bit precision can keep bit error rate (BER) degradation within 0.3 dB for 8×8 MIMO systems with different modulation schemes.
