Signal Detection in Spatially Multiplexed MIMO Systems
The transmission of several signals and reception of those signals, it requires the implementation of multiple transmitters at the transmitter side and the multiple receivers at the receiver side. This type of system is called multiple input multiple output (M.I.M.O) system. The M.I.M.O systems will result in obtaining the better use of the available spectrum for transmissions of the different signals in the same spectrum and this makes the M.I.M.O systems most dependable for the wireless communications. But the presence of several signals in the same bandwidth of spatial multiplexing matrix in M.I.M.O systems makes it difficult for the signal to get detected at the receiver end. There are plenty of techniques introduced to avoid the difficulty in sensing the signal at receiver in M.I.M.O systems. In this paper we will be discussing about the signal detection technique called minimum mean square error technique (MMSE) which uses the inversion of the matrix to retrieve the signal and the iteration-based method that is an improvised technique than MMSE technique where the matrix inversion step is avoided and provides better results. The results are obtained by plotting the bit error rate versus the signal to nose ratio using MATLAB
