Abstract

Objective: Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) low complexity CHEMP (Channel Hardening Exploiting Message Passing) receiver which utilizes the channel hardening in the large scale MIMO channel to reduce the complexity. Methods: The Channel Hardening refers that the off diagonal elements of H^TH matrix become progressively weaker than the diagonal elements because of the channel gain matrix H size increases. It is used for detection and estimation. The proposed receiver uses Message Passing Detection (MPD) algorithm and the estimation HTH matrix. Findings: Hence, the proposed receiver gives better performance than the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) and Subspace Marginalization with Interference Suppression (SUMIS) detectors since the MPD detection algorithm uses only the matrix multiplication and it does not need the matrix inversion. Improvements: The optimized Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes are used to provide the considerable improvement than LDPC cods.
