Abstract

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with multicode transmission can provide high speed data services by transmitting independent parallel substreams from multiple antennas and through multicode channelization. In this paper, we first introduce an iterative two-stage successive interference cancellation (SIC) detection scheme for a multicode MIMO system. Next, we derive various transmit power allocation schemes over different data substreams for the proposed detection process to improve error rate performance. The power allocation is performed to make the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) become balanced for all data substreams. Numerical results show that the proposed transmit power allocation schemes for the two-stage SIC significantly outperform the equal power allocation scheme.
