低精度ADC下大规模多输入多输出系统基于三对角迭代法的软输出信号检测

Soft Output Signal Detection for Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output Systems with Low-resolution ADC Based on Tridiagonal Iterative Method

  • 摘要: 受硬件成本制约,大规模多输入多输出(massive Multiple Input Multiple Output, mMIMO)基站通常配置低精度模数转换器(Analog-to-Digital Converter, ADC)。低精度ADC下,如果多用户mMIMO系统采用最小均方误差(Minimum Mean Square Error, MMSE)检测,将导致过高复杂度。为此,本文基于三对角迭代法(Tridiagonal Iterative Method, TDIM),结合分块矩阵求逆的初始值确定,提出一种低复杂度的MMSE软输出信号检测算法。数值仿真表明:基于TDIM的软输出信号检测算法经4次迭代即可达到收敛,同时,数值结果验证了ADC量化比特为4时,该算法可取得接近全精度ADC的性能,为低精度ADC下mMIMO系统的上行链路信号检测实现提供了切实可行的方案。

     

    Abstract: ‍ ‍Due to the limitation of hardware cost, massive multiple input multiple output (mMIMO) base stations are usually equipped with low-resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The complexity of Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) detection is too high to realize in multiuser mMIMO systems with low-resolution ADC. Therefore, to reduce the complexity of the soft output signal detection and achieve a near-optimal performance, in this paper, a low complexity MMSE soft output detection algorithm is proposed which based on tridiagonal iterative method (TDIM) and the block-matrix-inversion based initial solution. The numerical results verify that the TDIM-based soft output signal detection algorithm takes 4 iterations to converge and approximates the performance of Cholesky algorithm when the MMSE filtering matrix is diagonally dominant. The performance of mMIMO system with a 4-bits-ADC is close to the full resolution ADC as well, which provides a feasible solution for the uplink soft output signal detection of mMIMO systems with low-resolution ADC.
