Abstract

A Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) transmitter/receiver system has a reduced complexity decoder for receiving and decoding simultaneously several transmitted signals. The transmitter includes a space time coded modulation (STCM) block in the decoder. The transmitter/receiver system provides a reduced complexity approximation of optimal Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) methods while maintaining most of the performance gain and simplifying the implementation.
