We consider the use of Blind Interference Alignment (BIA) in a cellular environment as a means for supporting downlink Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) transmission without the need for channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT). This “CSIT-blind” characteristic of BIA is of particular interest for Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) systems, since it allows one to eliminate overheads and impairments...
User scheduling and multiuser multi-antenna (MU-MIMO) transmission are at the core of high-rate data-oriented downlink schemes of the next-generation of cellular systems (e.g., LTE-Advanced). Scheduling selects groups of users according to their channels vector directions and SINR levels. However, when scheduling is applied independently in each cell, the inter-cell interference (ICI) power at each...
The optimization of the weighted ergodic sum rate is considered for the downlink of a cellular networks with multiple cells and multi-antenna base stations. We focus on the large system limit where the number of base station antennas and the number of users per cell go to infinity with a fixed ratio. We consider two extreme cases of full inter-cell cooperation (network MIMO) and no inter-cell cooperation...
We consider a realistic albeit simplified scenario for wireless cellular systems of the next generation (4G and beyond), where MIMO-OFDM, opportunistic scheduling, channel state information at the transmitter and limited base-station cooperation are envisaged. We propose two strategies with limited base-station cooperation that can be easily implemented with today's technology and achieve an approximate...
We consider the uplink and the downlink of a multiuser wireless system with one base station and K user terminals. Each user is affected by a propagation path loss, fixed in time, and by a slowly time-varying frequency-selective fading channel, modeled as M parallel block-fading channels. We investigate "multiuser diversity", i.e., the gain achieved by a multiuser system over a single-user...
