One of the challenges in the design of large-scale multiuser MIMO-OFDM systems is developing low-complexity detection algorithms. To achieve this goal, we leverage message passing algorithms over the factor graph that represents the multiuser MIMO-OFDM systems and approximate the original discrete messages with continuous Gaussian messages through the use of the minimum Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence criterion. Several signal processing techniques are then proposed to achieve near-optimal performance at low complexity. First, the principle of expectation propagation is employed to compute the approximate Gaussian messages, where the symbol belief is approximated by a Gaussian distribution and then the approximate message is calculated from the Gaussian approximate belief. In addition, the approximate symbol belief can be computed by the a posteriori probabilities fed back from channel …
