چکیده

This paper describes low-power dynamic multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) detection for a 4×4 MIMO-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) receiver. MIMO-OFDM systems achieve high-speed and large capacity communications. However, they impose high computational cost in MIMO detection when separating spatially multiplexed signals and they consume vast amounts of power. We propose low-power dynamic MIMO detection that controls detection speed according to wireless environments. The power consumption is reduced by dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) that controls the operating voltage and clock frequency in the MIMO detector. We implemented dynamic MIMO detection in a pipelined minimum mean square error (MMSE) MIMO detector that we developed in our previous work. A power saving of 92% was achieved under lowest clock frequency mode conditions. key words: wireless communications, MIMO detection, low power, DVFS

Nonuniform Computational Complexity Allocation for OFDM Detectors

This paper concerns receiver design for multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) communications systems, where frequencyselective fading causes the quality of the channel to vary significantly from one subcarrier to the next. It is common practice for MIMO-OFDM detectors to implement the same detector at each subcarrier, in which case the overall per...

VLSI Implementation of a Scalable Pipeline MMSE MIMO Detector for a 4×4 MIMO-OFDM Receiver

MIMO-OFDM performs signal detection on a subcarrier basis which requires high speed computation in MIMO detection due to its large computational cost. Conventional designs in a MIMO detector increase processing time in proportion to the number of subcarriers and have difficulty in real-time processing for large numbers of subcarriers. A complete pipeline MMSE MIMO detector presented in our prev...
