Summary: 
We propose a likelihood detection scheme that utilizes ordering and decision of partial bits in MIMO spatial multiplexing systems. We compute BER performance of the proposed detection scheme under Rayleigh fading channels in a 33 MIMO spatial multiplexing system and compare it with BER performance using MLD only and detection utilizing ZF or MMSE only. In addition, the computational complexity of the proposed detection scheme is compared with that of MLD and detection utilizing ZF or MMSE. The results of our investigation show that the proposed detection is a scheme achieves both good BER performance and low computational complexity.
