Original Kurzfassung:
Factor graphs (FG) are a tool to derive efficient
algorithms for complex systems by graphically displaying the
structure of the mathematical model. The construction of the
graph and the choice of the messages which are passed over
its edges significantly determine the derived algorithm. In our
work we show the application of a FG to a MIMO detector and
the derivation of three different algorithms by applying different
message passing methods, such as an exact, an exact relaxed
and a particle algorithm. Further on, we discuss the bit error
performance depending on message passing methods and the
computational complexity depending on message representation
and graph construction.
