Abstract :
This paper proposes a new hybrid structure for the practical MIMO receiver. The receiver operates in a QRMLD mode by default and achieves near-optimal performance. On the other hand, when the communication environment is not so favorable for a QR-MLD, it switches to a QR-MMSE mode and saves the mobile computing power. Using a common structure of QR decomposition from both receivers and the novel QR-MMSE un-biasing technique, this hybrid receiver can be implemented with great simplicity.
