Title
Partial LLL Reduction
Abstract
The Lenstra-Lenstra-Lovasz (LLL) reduction has wide applications in digital communications. It can greatly improve the speed of the sphere decoding (SD) algorithms for solving an integer least squares (ILS) problem and the performance of the Babai integer point, a suboptimal solution to the ILS problem. Recently Ling and Howgrave-Graham proposed the so-called effective LLL (ELLL) reduction. It has less computational complexity than LLL, while it has the same effect on the performance of the Babai integer point as LLL. In this paper we propose a partial LLL (PLLL) reduction. PLLL avoids the numerical stability problem with ELLL, which may result in very poor performance of the Babai integer point. Furthermore, numerical simulations indicated that it is faster than ELLL. We also show that in theory PLLL and ELLL have the same effect on the search speed of a typical SD algorithm as LLL.
