A Novel Iterative Detection in Downlink of Massive MIMO System

Abstract

In this paper, we propose the novel iterative detection which operates iteratively on blocks of the received signal in downlink in massive MIMO (Massive Multiple-input Multiple-output) system. This article will combine the equivalent channel with soft detection and soft decoder, and finally propose a new structure for the iterative detection in downlink based on 5G simulation test platform of NCRL and analysis the performance of the novel structure. The simulation result shows iterative algorithm performs better than conventional detection with lower amount of iterations.
