Abstract

Breadth first tree search algorithms are intended to search its lattice points by using breadth first search method; guarantees optimal BER performance without the need for an estimate of SNR. However, one such breadth first signal decoder (BSIDE) algorithm, usually, searches more nodes in the tree and incurs a higher implementation complexity. A signal processing technique capable of minimizing the number of multipliers needed for realizing the processing unit of the breadth first signal decoder is proposed. The proposed signal passing technique reduces 86% of computational complexity for 2 × 2 and 99% for 4 × 4 multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with similar performance as that of BSIDE.
