In this paper, a lattice reduction (LR)-based MIMO detection method is studied to achieve near MAP performance with reasonably low complexity for IDD. The a priori information (API), which is available from a soft-input soft-output (SISO) decoder, is taken into account to generate a list with a randomized successive interference cancellation (SIC) method. More specifically, a joint Gaussian distribution is used to convert the API into the LR domain and a modified sampling distribution, which was originally adopted for near optimal LR-based detection in non-IDD MIMO systems, is derived for random sampling to build a list of candidate vectors of high a posteriori probability (APP) with low complexity. It is shown that the IDD receiver with the proposed method outperforms those with the conventional LR-based methods, where no API is taken into account to build a list. Furthermore, the trade-off between performance and complexity is exploited with varying list length. 收起
