To reduce the complexity of space-time multiuser detection, it has been proposed recently to exploit the spatial dimension by forming groups of users and apply the detection individually to each group. In this work we propose a new space-time receiver structure based on the group-optimal MMSE linear detector along with a new grouping algorithm that respects practical hardware limitations. Furthermore, an extension of the proposed structure which allows non-mutually exclusive grouping is presented. The simulation results show that the proposed reduced-complexity receiver structure provides a bit error rate (BER) performance close to the full linear MMSE multiuser detector.
