            Abstract : 
We investigate nonlinear preceding techniques for the downlink of multi-user systems from a transmitter equipped with multiple antennas to non-cooperative single antenna mobile receivers. The contribution of this paper is the extension of the tree-structured vector precoding algorithm with a search radius estimation based on the statistics of the preceded symbols to reduce the number of evaluated nodes. Simulation results reveal a significant reduction of computational complexity at the expense of only slight performance degradations.
