MUSIC-Based Pilot Decontamination and Channel Estimation in Multiuser Massive MIMO System

This paper addresses the problem of channel estimation in a multiuser multi-cell wireless communications system in which the base station (BS) is equipped with a very large number of antennas (also referred to as “massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)”). We consider a time-division duplexing (TDD) scheme, in which reciprocity between the uplink and downlink channels can be assumed. Channel estimation is essential for downlink beamforming in massive MIMO, nevertheless, the pilot contamination effect hinders accurate channel estimation, which leads to overall performance degradation. Benefitted from the asymptotic orthogonality between signal and interference subspaces for non-overlapping angle-of arrivals (AOAs) in the large-scale antenna system, we propose a multiple signals classification (MUSIC) based channel estimation algorithm during the uplink transmission. Analytical and numerical results verify complete pilot decontamination and the effectiveness of the proposed channel estimation algorithm in the multiuser multi-cell massive MIMO system.

Performance evaluation of channel inversion precoding for downlink multi-user MIMO system

In downlink multi-user multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) system, not every user (user equipment (UE)) can calculate accurately signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) without prior knowledge of the other users' precoding vector. To solve this problem, this article proposes a channel inversion precoding scheme by using the lower bound of SINR and zero-forcing (ZF) algorithm. However, the SINR mismatch between lower bound SINR and actual SINR causes the inaccurateness of adaptive modulation and coding (AMC). As a result, it causes degradation in performance. Simulation results show that channel inversion precoding provides lower throughput than that of single user multi-input multi-output (SU-MIMO) at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) (>14 dB), due to the SINR mismatch, although the sum-rate of channel inversion precoding is higher than that of SU-MIMO at full SNR regime.     

Pilot decontamination in massive MIMO system combining time-shifted and cell sectorization pilot assignment

Pilot contamination is appeared in massive MIMO (multiple input multiple output) system when using the same pilot sequences at different cells to get the channel state information.It becomes a bottleneck problem of massive MIMO when the number of antenna goes infinite.In order to dealt with pilot contamination,a new TS-CSPA joint scheme was proposed.This scheme can mitigate pilot contamination by reduce the reuse of pilot sequence through the time domain and space domain.And the closed-form expression for the achieved rates and signal to interference plus noise ratio(SINR) to verify the advantages of the proposed scheme were given.Numerical results show that significant performance gains to mitigate pilot contamination problem compared to other methods.     

QoS‐based space‐frequency prefiltering for TDD MC‐CDMA systems in slowly time‐varying channels

This work presents a space‐frequency prefiltering scheme for slowly time‐varying TDD MC‐CDMA downlink communications with multiple antennas at the base station (BS). Unlike the conventional spatially uncorrelated block fading channel model, both channel variation in each packet and spatial correlation are considered in the design. In the TDD mode, the mobile terminals (MTs) transmit training signals at the end of each uplink packet. In the following downlink packet, the BS computes the signal weights on different antennas and subcarriers for each MT in each symbol period based on the channel state predicted from the received training signals. The goal is to minimize the total required transmit power while keeping the received signal‐to‐interference‐plus‐noise ratio (SINR) as the target for each MT. Moreover, the maximum packet length for satisfying the SINR requirements has been determined. The results indicate that the total required transmit power can be reduced by a lower mobile speed or more BS antennas. As a result, the maximum packet length can be extended in virtue of the power reduction. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

大规模MU-MIMO系统归一化预编码算法

针对大规模MU-MIMO系统中预编码技术性能不佳的问题,在不完善信道状态信息(CSI)的情况下,对迫零(ZF)和最大比发射(MRT)预编码技术提出了两种归一化算法：向量归一化与矩阵归一化。首先基站通过上行导频序列估计CSI,并在下行链路中用所提的算法对预编码矩阵进行归一化处理,然后将其与发送信号以及信道进行匹配。仿真结果表明,在高信噪比时,ZF预编码使用向量归一化算法实现了更好的系统性能;而在低信噪比时,MRT预编码使用矩阵归一化算法使系统性能得到了良好改善。     

Spectral efficiency evaluation of full‐duplex mode of communications based on SLNR approach

Full‐duplex (FD) mode of communication with efficient transmission scheme is a promising approach for 5G wireless systems by improving the spectral efficiency. This can be attained by making use of various precoding approaches. We propose a new co‐channel interference (CCI)‐aware improvement to signal‐to‐leakage‐and‐noise ratio (SLNR) technique and a suppression filter at the receiver to whiten the interference for the downlink channel. As well, for the uplink (UL) communication, we propose a self‐interference (SI)‐aware enhancement to SLNR scheme and designing a precoder using self‐interference plus noise covariance matrix. The total spectral efficiency is obtained from the sum‐rates of both downlink and uplink communication systems. Simulation results verify that the spectral efficiency (SE) of FD using the proposed scheme performs well relative to the half‐duplex system for all Rician factor and for small powers at the base station (BS) and UL communication channel users. Moreover, as the number of users grows, which entails that as the number of receiving antennas greater than the number of antennas at the BS the SLNR scheme still works, nonetheless, zero‐forcing (ZF) and block‐diagonalization (BD) precoding schemes failed. This is due to the fact that designing a precoder based on SLNR scheme supports multiple numbers of antennas at the base station and users compared with ZF and BD by compromising the interference and noise. However, for the cases of ZF and BD approaches failed due to both schemes require the number of transmit antennas at the BS to be larger than the sum of the receiving antennas at all users.

A lower bound on achievable rate of MRT precoding in multicell multiuser massive MIMO networks with Rician flat fading

A multicell multiuser massive multiple‐input‐multiple‐output (MIMO) network with Rician flat fading is considered. Given channel reciprocity, non‐orthogonal uplink channel training in conjunction with minimum mean square error channel estimation at the base stations are used to acquire channel state information. In the forward link, using maximal ratio transmission precoding, base stations send data to corresponding users. In this paper, first, a closed‐form expression for signal to interference and noise ratio and a lower bound on achievable rate are obtained for arbitrary number of base station antennas. Then, using random matrix theory, a simplified approximate expression for large number of base station antennas (i.e., massive MIMO scenario) are calculated. This simplified expression shows that in a multicell multiuser massive MIMO network with Rician flat fading, like Rayleigh fading, as the number of base station antennas goes to infinity, the effects of uncorrelated noise and intercell and intracell interferences tend to zero. The only factor limiting the performance of system is the correlated intercell interference, that is, pilot contamination, due to non‐orthogonality of channel training sequences in adjacent cells. Numerical results show that our obtained closed‐form expression is a good lower bound on sum‐rate for various system parameters. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Novel SINR‐Based User Selection for an MU‐MIMO System with Limited Feedback

This paper presents a novel user selection method based on the signal‐to‐interference‐plus‐noise ratio (SINR), which is approximated using limited feedback data at the base stations (BSs) of multiple user multiple‐input multiple‐output (MU‐MIMO) systems. In the proposed system, the codebook vector index, the quantization error obtained from the correlation between the measured channel and the codebook vector, and the measured value of the largest singular value are fed back from each user to the BS. The proposed method not only generates precoding vectors that are orthogonal to the precoding vectors of the previously selected users and are highly correlated with the codebook vector of each user but also adopts the quantization error in approximating the SINR, which eventually provides a significantly more accurate SINR than the conventional SINR‐based user selection techniques. Computer simulations show that the proposed method enhances the sum rate of the conventional SINR‐based methods by at least 2.4 (2.62) bps/Hz when the number of transmit antennas and number of receive antennas per user terminal is 4 and 1(2), respectively, with 100 candidate users and an SNR of 30 dB.
