Efficient iterative sphere detectors based on the Schnorr-Euchner enumeration
Michael Samuel, Michael P. Fitz · 2009
Two efficient iterative sphere detectors based on the Schnorr-Euchner enumeration are the topic of this manuscript. The first one is capable of finding dasiagoodpsila candidate lattice points soon enough and its efficiency/performance are controlled by an adaptive radius update strategy. The second is a max-log detector. Because of the Schnorr-Euchner nature of the search, estimation of the initial sphere radius is not required and unlike the iterative sphere detector of Vikalo et al., the search step does not require any division or square root operations. In the new sphere detectors, the search step must account for the input a priories and explicit sorting of the branches stemming from the tree nodes must be done.
