Abstract
In this letter, we propose a very simple successive interference cancelation (SIC) based signal detector for space-time block codes (STBC) to combat time-selective fading. The main idea is to treat un-detected symbols as noise using a Gaussian approximation. Simulation results show that our scheme can provide performance very close to ML decoding with extremely low computational complexity.
