Abstract
Multiple beamforming is realized by singular value decomposition of the channel matrix which is assumed to be known to both the transmitter and the receiver. Bit-Interleaved Coded Multiple Beamforming (BICMB) can achieve full diversity as long as the code rate Rc and the number of employed subchannels S satisfy the condition RcS<=1. Bit-Interleaved Coded Multiple Beamforming with Constellation Precoding (BICMB-CP), on the other hand, can achieve full diversity without the condition RcS<=1. However, the decoding complexity of BICMB-CP is much higher than BICMB. In this paper, a reduced complexity decoding technique, which is based on Sphere Decoding (SD), is proposed to reduce the complexity of Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoding for BICMB-CP. The decreased complexity decoding achieves several orders of magnitude reduction, in terms of the average number of real multiplications needed to…
