In this paper. we propose an adaptive step-size algorithm for the adaptive interference canceller (AIC) in the space-time trellis coded DS-CDMA system. In the AIC, the performance of the blind LMS algorithms that updates the tap-weight vector of the AIC is heavily dependent on the choice of step-size. To improve the performance of the fixed step-size AIC (FS-AIC), the regular adaptive step-size algorithm is extended in complex domain and applied to the joint AIC and ML decoder scheme. Simulation results show that the joint adaptive step-size AIC (AS-AIC) and ML decoder scheme using the proposed algorithm has boner performance than not only the conventional ML decoder but also the joint FS-AIC and ML decoder scheme without much increase of the decoding delay and complexity.

Based on the fact that audio signals in the time domain have the generalized Gaussian distribution. an optimal parameter estimation of the ML (maximum likelihood) test based audio watermark decoder. which leads to the minimal bit error rate, is Proposed. Its superiority of performance over the existing estimation and the conventional correlation based decoder is demonstrated experimentally.

This work presents a low complexity maximum-likelihood decoder for signal detection in VBLAST-STBC system, which employs non-square O-STBC code rate 3/4. Stacking received symbols from different symbol duration and applying QR decomposition result in the special format of upper triangular matrix R so that the proposed decoder is able to provide not only ML-like BER performance but also very low computational load. The low computational load and ML-like BER performance properties of the proposed decoder are verified by computer simulations.

In this paper, a low-complexity maximum-likelihood (ML) decoder based on QR decomposition, called real-valued LCMLDec decoder or RVLCMLDec for short, is proposed for the Vertical Bell Labs Layered Space-Time (V-BLAST) architecture, a promising candidate for providing high data rates in future fixed wireless communication systems [1]. Computer simulations, in comparison with other detection techniques, show that the proposed decoder is capable of providingthe V-BLAST schemes with ML performance at low detection complexity.

In this paper, we address the issue of joint detection schemes for uplink cellular system when base station cooperation is possible for multi-user detection in multi-cell scenario. The ZF, ML, MMSE and SIC detection are analyzed and evaluated as a conventional scheme. ML attains the optimal performance but the complexity increases exponentially, ZF/MMSE have simple structure but have poor detection performance and SIC has better performance but it has large complexity and potential of the error propagation. However, they need the increased decoder complexity as the number of iteration is increased. We propose a new joint ML and ZF/MMSE detection scheme, which combines the partial ML decoding and ZF/MMSE detection, in order to decrease the decoder complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme attains same or a little bit better BER performance and expect reduced decoder complexity, specially in the case of large number of Base Station are cooperated each other.

We consider multiple-input multiple-output decode-and-forward relay systems in Rayleigh fading channels under the partial channel state information (CSI) that the channel statistics of the source-relay (SR) link and the instantaneous CSI of the source-destination and relay-destination links are known at the destination. In this paper, we propose a new near maximum likelihood (near-ML) decoder with two-level pairwise error probability (near-ML-2PEP) which uses the average PEP instead of the exact PEP. Then, we theoretically prove that the near-ML and near-ML-2PEP decoders achieve the maximum diversity, which is confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations. Moreover, we show that the near-ML-2PEP decoder can also achieve the maximum diversity by substituting the average PEP with the values that represent the error performance of the SR link.

In this paper, a fast sphere decoder is proposed for the joint detection of phase-shift keying (PSK) signals in uncoded Vertical Bell Laboratories Layered Space Time (V-BLAST) systems. The proposed decoder, PSD, consists of preprocessing stage and search stage. The search stage of PSD relies on the depth-first branch-and-bound (BB) algorithm with "best-first" orders stored in lookup tables. Simulation results show that the PSD is able to provide the system with the maximum likelihood (ML) performance at low complexity.

In this paper, we present a low complexity modified multi-level sphere decoder (SD) for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems employing quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals. The proposed decoder, exploiting the multi-level structure of the QAM signal scheme, first decomposes the high-level constellation into low-level 4-QAM constellations, so-called sub-constellations. Then, it deploys SD in the sub-constellations in parallel. In addition, in the searching stage, it uses the optimal low-complexity sort method. Computer simulation results show that the proposed decoder can provide near optimal maximum-likelihood (ML) performance while it significantly reduces the computational load.
