Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new greedy algorithm developed for communication systems characterized with multiple simultaneous data transmission. Specifically, we consider code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems and systems employing space-time coding (STC). The optimum detection in such systems has an exponential complexity and cannot be used in practical systems. We show that performance close to the optimum performance yet with significantly lower complexity can be achieved by the proposed algorithm. Also, we show that its performance is significantly better than that of most of the existing sub-optimum schemes for a wide range of operating conditions.
