Effect of Temporal Correlation in the Presence of Spatial Correlation on Interference Suppression

Abstract

In this paper, we look at the combined effect of spatial and temporal correlation on low complexity max log MAP detector in the scenario of interference suppression. We consider narrowband MIMO channel which experiences spatially and temporally correlated wide sense stationary Rayleigh fading. Employing moment generating function (MGF)-based approach, we derive upper bounds of coded pairwise error probability (PEP) and study the effect of spatial and temporal correlation in the presence of non Gaussian interference. Analytical results are then validated by simulations.
