  • Abstract
    We propose an efficient decoding algorithm targeted for quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes which can be viewed as an iterative extension of the parallel detection algorithm using iterative interference cancellation. The essence of the algorithm is in the realization of the fact that the number of candidate symbols at the end of each interference cancellation iteration reduces very quickly, and that no more than two iterations are required.
