Abstract

This paper proposes a simplified ordering algorithm for the fixed-complexity sphere decoder (FSD). The new algorithm is developed from the analysis of the ordering for FSD from a geometrical point of view. Computer simulation is used to assess the improvements in bit-error rate (BER) performances of MIMO systems using the FSD with the original and the simplified ordering. Simulation results show that the new ordering method can achieve nearly the same BER as the original ordering method but with much less complexity.
