ABSTRACT:
A Multiple-input Multiple-Output (MIMO) receiver is provided. The MIMO receiver comprises a parameterized sphere detector having two search modes. During a first search mode, the parameterized sphere detector enumerates a number of best candidate vectors up to a fixed parameter value. During a second search mode, the parameterized sphere detector enumerates additional candidate vectors using a greedy search until a predetermined number of candidate vectors have been enumerated.
