Jaskirat Kaur, Harmandar Kaur . Performance Comparison of Various MIMO Detectors in Presence of Gaussian and Non-Gaussian Noise. International Journal of Computer Applications. 122, 11 ( July 2015), 27-31. DOI=10.5120/21746-4999
The Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) – Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology significantly provides high transmission rate and robustness against multi-path fading and other channel impairments. Mostly, MIMO-OFDM system is analyzed only in presence of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) only, but in practice, in many actual wireless environments impulsive characteristics are present. In this paper, the performance of various MIMO detectors is analyzed and compared in presence of both AWGN and impulse noise for different modulations and different antenna configurations of MIMO system.
