Abstract: | Recently, a new soft-in soft-out detection algorithm based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation technique for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems is proposed,which is shown to perform significantly better than their sphere decoding counterparts with relatively low complexity. However, the MCMC simulator is likely to get trapped in a fixed state when the channel SNR is high, thus lots of repetitive samples are observed and the accuracy of A Posteriori Probability (APP) estimation deteriorates. To solve this problem, an improved version of MCMC simulator, named forced-dispersed MCMC algorithm is proposed. Based on the a posteriori variance of each bit, the Gibbs sampler is monitored. Once the trapped state is detected, the sample is dispersed intentionally according to the a posteriori variance. Extensive simulation shows that, compared with the existing solution, the proposed algorithm enables the markov chain to travel more states, which ensures a near-optimal performance. |
