Abstract
Massive multiple-input multiple-output systems (mMIMO) are the most prevalent candidates for the next generation of wireless communication. Yet even with mMIMO systems the joint optimization of spectral and energy efficiencies can be only attained by combining high order signal constellations and efficient power amplification. In order to push this limitation, the transmitter can spread the information into several amplification branches, which are the result of the decomposition of multilevel constellation symbols into quasi constant envelope signals. Nevertheless, the high number of antennas involved in this type of communication leads to an increase of the channel matrix’s size and therefore the complexity of the equalization process can create drawbacks for the power consumption and latency. In this paper we will study the combination of a multi-layer transmitter with a low complexity receivers based on an iterative block decision feedback equalizer (IB-DFE). These receivers avoid the matrix inversion operation in the equalizer the feed-forward by replacing it with an equal gain combiner (EGC) or a maximum ratio combiner (MRC) module. Results show that can be used without penalties on performance provided that the number of antennas involved is high.
