ITC/USA 2006 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Second Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 23-26, 2006 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, California / Spatial multiplexing (SM) systems have received significant attention because the architecture
offers high spectral efficiency. However, relatively little research exists on optimization
of SM systems in the presence of jamming. In a spatially uncoded SM system, such as
V-BLAST, the channel state information is assumed to be unavailable a priori at both
transmitter and receiver. Here, Kalman filtering is used to estimate the Rayleigh fading
channel at the receiver. The spatial correlation of the jammer plus noise is also estimated,
and spatial whitening to reject the jammers is employed in both the Kalman channel estimator
and detector. To avoid the exponential complexity of maximum-likelihood (ML)
detection, the QRD-M algorithm is employed. In contrast to sphere decoding, QRD-M has fixed decoding complexity of order O(M), and is thus attractive for hardware implementation.
The performance of the joint Kalman filter channel estimator, spatial whitener and
QRD-M detector is verfied by simulations.
