Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a high-speed sorted QR decomposition architecture for 4 x 4 MIMO wireless communication systems. This architecture can be applied in high-throughput MIMO-OFDM system such as IEEE802.11n. QR decomposition (QRD) is commonly used in many MIMO detection algorithms. In particular, sorted QR decomposition (SQRD) is the advanced algorithm to improve MIMO detection performance. We designed an SQRD hardware architecture by using modified Gram-Schmidt algorithm with pipelining and recursive processing. The proposed architecture makes efficient use of some function blocks recursively by scheduling data flow. We implemented the proposed architecture with 178.88K gates in 9Onm CMOS technology. The proposed design can achieve high performance up to 40.85 million SQRD per second with the maximum operating frequency of 245 MHz.
