Abstract

In this paper, a low-complexity stochastic belief propagation (BP) detector for large-scale MIMO is first proposed. Its efficient hardware architecture, with parallel pipeline, is presented in detail. Thanks to the stochastic approach, all arithmetic operations of the detector are implemented with simple logic structures. Several approaches which can potentially improve the detection performance are exploited. Simulation results have demonstrated that the stochastic BP detector can achieve similar detection performance compared with deterministic one for 32 × 32 MIMO system with 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (4-QAM). With the increase of antenna number, the detection performance improves at the linear expense of complexity and latency. Therefore, the proposed stochastic BP detector is suitable for large-scale MIMO system applications with good balance of detection performance and implementation complexity.
