Convex primal decomposition for multicarrier linear MIMO transceivers

The design of linear transceivers for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems with channel state information is particularly challenging for two main reasons. First, since several substreams are established through the MIMO channel, it is not even clear how the quality of the system should be measured. Second, once a cost function has been chosen to measure the quality, the optimization of the system according to such criterion is generally difficult due to the nonconvexity of the problem. Recent results have solved the problem for the wide family of Schur-concave/convex functions, resulting in simple closed-form solutions when the system is modeled as a single MIMO channel. However, with several MIMO channels (such as in multi-antenna multicarrier systems), the solution is generally more involved, leading in some cases to the need to employ general-purpose interior-point methods. This problem is specifically addressed in this paper by combining the closed-form solutions for single MIMO channels with a primal decomposition approach, resulting in a simple and efficient method for multiple MIMO channels. The extension to functions that are not Schur-concave/convex is also briefly considered, relating the present work with a recently proposed method to minimize the average bit error rate (BER) of the system.

MIMO biorthogonal partners and applications

Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) biorthogonal partners arise in many different contexts, one of them being multiwavelet theory. They also play a central role in the theory of MIMO channel equalization, especially with fractionally spaced equalizers. In this paper, we first derive some theoretical properties of MIMO biorthogonal partners. We develop conditions for the existence of MIMO biorthogonal partners and conditions under which FIR solutions are possible. In the process of constructing FIR MIMO biorthogonal partners, we exploit the nonuniqueness of the solution. This will lead to the design of flexible fractionally spaced MIMO zero-forcing equalizers. The additional flexibility in design makes these equalizers more robust to channel noise. Finally, other situations where MIMO biorthogonal partners occur are also considered, such as prefiltering in multiwavelet theory and deriving the vector version of the least squares signal projection problem     

Blind-Channel Estimation for MIMO Systems With Structured Transmit Delay Scheme

This paper considers blind-channel estimation for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with structured transmitter design. First, a structured transmit delay (STD) scheme is proposed for MIMO systems. Unlike existing transmit diversity approaches, in which different antennas transmit delayed, zero padded, or time-reversed versions of the same signal, in the proposed scheme, each antenna transmits an independent data stream, therefore promises higher data rate and more flexibility to transmitter design. Second, second-order statistics based blind-channel estimation algorithms are developed for MIMO systems with STD scheme. Channel identifiability is addressed for both correlation-based and subspace-based approaches. The proposed approaches involve no pre-equalization, have no limitations on channel zero locations, and do not rely on nonconstant modulus precoding. Third, when channel coding is employed, estimation accuracy can be further enhanced through “postprocessing”, in which channel estimation is refined by taking the tentative decisions from the channel decoder as pseudo-training symbols. Simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed approaches.      

Space–Time-Coded MIMO ZP-OFDM Systems: Semiblind Channel Estimation and Equalization

The space–time-block-code (STBC) multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) zero-padding orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (ZP-OFDM) has been widely investigated in recent years. It provides a good performance for the multiuser scenario with a small number of pilots. However, it would fail in the face of complex symmetric signals. In this paper, novel channel estimation and equalization for complex input signals are investigated. With the Alamouti-like STBC scheme, the channel impulse responses of the space–time-coded MIMO ZP-OFDM system are shown to be identifiable up to two ambiguity matrices by subspace channel estimation. The frequency domain minimum mean-square error (MMSE) equalizer is then employed to detect the OFDM symbols. Furthermore, we propose a forward–backward averaging technique to enhance the performances of blind channel estimation. The weight analysis for the MMSE equalizer is also conducted to reduce the complexity of system design. Computer simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and correctness of channel estimation and weight analysis for the space–time-coded MIMO ZP-OFDM systems.      

Robust Interference Management via Linear Precoding and Linear/Non-Linear Equalization

This work studies the robust design of linear precoding and linear/ non-linear equalization for multi-cell MIMO systems in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI). A worst-case design approach is adopted whereby the CSI error is assumed to lie within spherical sets of known radius. First, the optimal robust design of linear precoders is tackled for a MIMO interference broadcast channel (MIMO-IBC) with general unicast/multicast messages in each cell and operating over multiple time-frequency resources. This problem is formulated as the maximization of the worst-case sum-rate assuming optimal detection at the mobile stations (MSs). Then, symbol-by-symbol non-linear equalization at the MSs is considered. In this case, the problem of jointly optimizing linear precoding and decision-feedback (DF) equalization is investigated for a MIMO interference channel (MIMO-IC) with the goal of minimizing the worst-case sum-mean squared error (MSE). Both problems are addressed by proposing iterative algorithms with descent properties. The algorithms are also shown to be implementable in a distributed fashion on processors that have only local and partial CSI by means of the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM). From numerical results, it is shown that the proposed robust solutions significantly improve over conventional non-robust schemes in terms of sum-rate or symbol error rate. Moreover, it is seen that the proposed joint design of linear precoding and DF equalization outperforms existing separate solutions.
