Low complexity stationary iteration based approximate inversion for signal detection in OTFS system

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) system offers a high data rate and effectively exploits full diversity compared to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), achieving a seamless trade-off between data rate and processing gain. However, detecting OTFS signals is challenging due to the complex conversion between delay-Doppler (DD) and time domains. In this article, we propose a stationary iteration-based approximate inversion (SIAI) technique for low-complexity detection in uplink OTFS systems.The proposed SIAI detection technique features square-order computational complexity and delivers performance close to that of a linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) detector. Simulation results demonstrate that the SIAI technique outperforms several state-of-the-art detection methods in terms of both error performance and computational complexity. Additionally, the robustness of the SIAI technique is validated in scenarios with imperfect channel state information at the receiver.
