This paper proposes a Group Detection (GD) algorithm with Max-Log-MAP Sphere Decoder (MLM-SD) in order to reduce the complexity of signal detection in a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system. The proposed algorithm divides spatial streams into multiple partial spatial streams by using Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) detector, followed by multiple MLM-SDs with reduced number of spatial streams. Although the spatial diversity gain in the MLM-SD degrades because of the lack of the degrees of freedom exploited by the MMSE detector, its diversity gain is recovered by combining the metrics obtained by the multiple MLM-SDs. In a MIMO wireless LAN multipath fading environment, the complexity of the proposed algorithm is 10% of that of the original MLM-SD and the performance degradation in terms of SNR is slightly less than that of the original MLM-SD in 4-by-4 MIMO architecture with 64 QAM achieving 216 Mbps. It is also found that the proposed algorithm is robust against the limitation of the number of searches in sphere decoder.
