Abstract

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has attracted substantial attention recently due to its great potential of providing reliable communications in high-mobility scenarios. In this article, we propose a novel hybrid signal detection algorithm for OTFS modulation. Based on the system model, we first derive the near-optimal symbol-wise maximum a posteriori (MAP) detection algorithm for OTFS modulation. Then, in order to reduce the detection complexity, we propose a partitioning rule that separates the related received symbols into two subsets for detecting each transmitted symbol, according to the corresponding path gains. According to the partitioning rule, we design the hybrid detection algorithm to exploit the power discrepancy of each subset, where the MAP detection is applied to the subset with larger channel gains, while the parallel interference cancellation (PIC) detection is applied to the subset with smaller channel gains. We also provide the error performance analysis of the proposed hybrid detection algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed hybrid detection algorithm can not only approach the performance of the near-optimal symbol-wise MAP algorithms, but also offer a substantial performance gain compared with existing algorithms.
