Abstract

In this paper, BP detection based on belief propagation in real domain for large-scale MIMO systems is proposed. Numerical results have shown that, with quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation, this approach can show 1 dB performance improvement at the BER of 10-2, compared to conventional single-edge based BP (SE-BP) in complex domain. Based on the proposed BP detection, its symbol-based variation is also investigated for applications in large-scale MIMO systems with a high-order modulation. This symbol-based method successfully reduces computational complexity by avoiding large dimensional matrix inversion and decomposition. Since the proposed method can also shrink the constellation size, its complexity can be further reduced. Numerical simulation results and complexity comparison have demonstrated that the proposed symbol-based BP detection can show advantages in both performance and complexity compared to existing ones. Therefore, it is suitable for large-scale MIMO system applications, especially for those with high-order modulations.
