In the Fifth Generation of telecommunications networks (5G), it is possible to use massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems, which require efficient receivers capable of reaching good performance values. MIMO systems can also be extended to massive MIMO (mMIMO) systems, while maintaining their, sometimes exceptional, performance. However, we must be aware that this implies an increase in the receiver complexity. Therefore, the use of mMIMO in 5G and future generations of mobile receivers will only be feasible if they use very efficient algorithms, so as to maintain their excellent performance, while coping with increasing and critical user demands. Having this in mind, this paper presents and compares three types of receivers used in MIMO systems, for further use with mMIMO systems, which use Single-Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization (SC-FDE), Iterative Block Decision Feedback Equalization (IB-DFE) and Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC) techniques. This paper presents and compares the theoretical and simulated performance values for these receivers in terms of their Bit Error Rate (BER) and correlation factor. While one of the receivers studied in this paper achieves a BER performance nearly matching the Matched Filter Bound (MFB), the other receivers (IB-DFE and MRC) are more than 1 dB away from MFB. The results obtained in this paper can help the development of ongoing research involving hybrid analog/digital receivers for 5G and future generations of mobile communications.

Massive multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) systems are the future of the communication system. The proper design of the MIMO system needs an appropriate choice of detection algorithms. At the same time, Lattice reduction (LR)-aided equalizers have been well investigated for MIMO systems. Many studies have been carried out over the Korkine–Zolotareff (KZ) and Lenstra–Lenstra–Lovász (LLL) algorithms. This paper presents an analysis of the channel capacity of the massive MIMO system. The mathematical calculations included in this paper correspond to the channel correlation effect on the channel capacity. Besides, the achievable gain over the linear receiver is also highlighted. In this study, all the calculations were further verified through the simulated results. The simulated results show the performance comparison between zero forcing (ZF), minimum mean squared error (MMSE), integer forcing (IF) receivers with log-likelihood ratio (LLR)-ZF, LLR-MMSE, KZ-ZF, and KZ-MMSE. The main objective of this work is to show that, when a lattice reduction algorithm is combined with the convention linear MIMO receiver, it improves the capacity tremendously. The same is proven here, as the KZ-MMSE receiver outperforms its counterparts in a significant margin.
