| contents | In this paper, we propose a quantum-native formulation of maximum likelihood detection (MLD) for overloaded multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in a random access channel, where numerous user terminals share the same channel resource and asynchronously transmit signals. Classical linear detectors suffer from significant performance degradation in this scenario, whereas the exhaustive-search MLD achieves the optimal performance but incurs an exponential computational complexity. To overcome this trade-off, we formulate the MLD as a binary optimization problem and solve it via Grover adaptive search (GAS) -- a quantum exhaustive search algorithm offering quadratic speedup in fault-tolerant quantum computing. We then introduce a search space reduction technique to substantially decrease the required computational resources. In addition, we investigate efficient parameter settings for GAS through probability analysis to improve convergence performance. We demonstrate that the proposed detector achieves the optimal detection performance while reducing the required Grover rotation count to reach the solution by up to approximately 65% compared with the conventional GAS, showing its potential as a viable solution for future quantum-accelerated wireless systems. |
