The MIMO-OFDM system fully exploits the advantages of MIMO and OFDM, effectively resisting the channel multipath fading and inter-symbol interference while increasing the data transmission rate. Studies show that it is the principal technical mean for building underwater acoustic networks (UANs) of high performance. As the core, a signal detection algorithm determines the performance and complexity of the MIMO-OFDM system. However, low computational complexity and high performance cannot be achieved simultaneously, especially for UANs with a narrow bandwidth and limited data rate. This paper presents a novel signal detection algorithm based on generalized MMSE. First, we propose a model for the underwater MIMO-OFDM system. Second, we design a signal coding method based on STBC (space-time block coding). Third, we realize the detection algorithm namely GMMSE (generalized minimum mean square error). Finally, we perform a comparison of the algorithm with ZF (Zero Forcing), MMSE (minimum mean square error), and ML (Maximum Likelihood) in terms of the BER (bit error rate) and the CC (computational complexity). The simulation results show that the BER of GMMSE is the lowest one and the CC close to that of ZF, which achieves a tradeoff between the complexity and performance. This work provides essential theoretical and technical support for implementing UANs of high performance.

There are no limit of human desire, so day by day we need much higher data speed to facilitate our need but every physical resource like frequency band, transmit signal strength are finite. Within the given limited resource, higher data speed is accomplished by new proficiency called Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. MIMO-OFDM fulfills the high data rate requirement through spatial multiplexing gain and improved link reliability due to antenna diversity gain. With this technique, both interference reduction and maximum diversity gain are achieved by increasing number of antennae on either side. Received signal in MIMO-OFDM system is usually distorted by multipath fading. In order to recover the transmitted signal correctly, channel effect must be estimated and repaired at receiver. In this paper the performance evaluating parameter mean square error and symbol error rate of least square error, minimum mean square error and DFT based channel estimation methods are estimated and appropriate solution is recommended. Furthermore, comparison among their characteristics is simulated in MATLAB and useful conclusion is delineated.

In wireless communication, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) plays a major role because of its high transmission rate. Channel estimation and tracking have many different techniques available in OFDM systems. Among them, the most important techniques are least square (LS) and minimum mean square error (MMSE). In least square channel estimation method, the process is simple but the major drawback is it has very high mean square error. Whereas, the performance of MMSE is superior to LS in low SNR, its main problem is it has high computational complexity. If the error is reduced to a very low value, then an exact signal will be received. In this paper an extensive review on different channel estimation methods used in MIMO-OFDM like pilot based, least square (LS) and minimum mean square error method (MMSE) and least minimum mean square error (LMMSE) methods and also other channel estimation methods used in MIMO-OFDM are discussed.

This presentation proposed an autocorrelation-based signal detection scheme to get a better resulting. The signal detection scheme is combined by Autocorrelation Filter and an improved linear Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) estimator. The Autocorrelation Filter is used to reject the interference, and the improved linear MMSE estimator is used to get the least error. Both two methods are based on the non-overlapping property of the signals in autocorrelation domain. The theory consequence and Simulation results indicate that this signal detection scheme can achieve a high detection quality.

This paper presents an insufficient cyclic prefix (CP) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system with equalizer whose coefficients are calculated using Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm. The OFDM signal is passed through a channel with four multipath signals which cause the OFDM signal to be under high inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI).8-QAM and 16-QAM digital modulation techniques are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. The simulation results have accentuated the high performance of the LMS equalizer via comparing its Bit Error Rate (BER) and constellation diagram with those of the Minimum Mean Square Error and Zero Forcing equalizers. Moreover, the results also reveal that the LMS equalizer provides BER performance close to that of the OFDM system with a hypothetical sufficient CP.

Most existing quasi-orthogonal space time Block coding (QO-STBC) schemes have been developed relying on the assumption that the channel is at or remains static during the length of the code word symbol periods to achieve an optimal antenna diversity gain. However, in time-selective fading channels, this assumption does not hold and causes intertransmit-antenna-interferences (ITAI). Therefore, the simple pairwise maximum likelihood decoding scheme is not sufficient to recover original transmitted signals at the receiver side. To avoid the interferences, we have analyzed several signal detection schemes, namely zero forcing (ZF), two-step zero forcing (TS-ZF), minimum mean square error (MMSE), zero forcing - interference cancelation - decision feedback equalizer (ZF-IC-DFE) and minimum mean square error - interference cancelation { decision feedback equalizer (MMSE-IC-DFE). We have proposed two efficient iterative signal detection schemes, namely zero forcing - iterative interference cancelation - zero forcing { decision feedback equalization (ZF-IIC-ZF-DFE) and minimum mean square error - parallel interference cancelation - zero forcing – decision feedback equalization (MMSE-IIC-ZF-DFE). The simulation results show that these two proposed detection schemes significantly outperform all conventional methods for QOSTBC system over time selective channel.

MIMO-OFDM is considered as candidates for future 3G/B3G broadband wireless services. High quality mobile services have to eliminate multiple-access interference (MAI) that affects multi-user receiver performance in MIMO-OFDM system. In this paper, we analyze the effect of MAI on MIMO-OFDM system and adapt a successive interference cancellation (SIC) multi-user detection algorithm which based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) algorithm for MIMO-OFDM system. This algorithm by optimizing the sorting structure enables the receiver algorithm has better performance. The simulation results show that the algorithm can obtain rate is better than the conventional linear MMSE algorithm performance in the error, and constellation mapping point spacing also affect the detection performance. As the spacing is reducing, the bit error probability will rise.
