In K-best sphere decoding algorithm (KB), the number of survivor paths K, can be integer values in all tree levels. A certain complexity is provided for each value of K. In this letter, a variant of the K-best sphere decoding algorithm for uncoded MIMO channels is proposed, namely, flexible fractional K-best algorithm (FFKB). The FFKB provides a degree of freedom in complexity in-between the discreet complexities of the traditional KB. Through the offline calculations, the FFKB determines the best operation mode for KB relative to the hardware capability from the complexity point of view. |
