Performance Analysis of Multiuser Selection Diversity

In this paper, the performance of scheduling algorithms exploiting the multiuser selection diversity is studied. The authors consider schedulers with affordable-rate transmission and adaptive transmission based on the absolute signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the normalized SNR. In contrast to previous studies on multiuser diversity systems, channel dynamics is taken into consideration in this paper by a novel formulation based on the level-crossing analysis of stochastic processes. Then, a connection is made between the Doppler frequency shift, which indicates the channel temporal correlation, and the average (channel) access time, the average waiting time between accesses, and the average access rate of active users. These properties are important for the scheduler design, especially for applications where delay is a concern. In addition, analytical expressions for the system throughput and the degree of fairness when users have nonidentical average channel conditions are presented. These expressions quantify the effect of disparateness in users' average channel conditions on the system performance.      

Opportunistic eigenbeamforming: Exploiting multiuser diversity and channel correlations

Multiuser diversity is an inherent form of diversity present in any time-varying system with several users. An opportunistic scheduler has to be used in order to exploit this type of diversity. A scheme that increases the effective dynamic range of the channel by deploying multiple antennas at the transmitter is called opportunistic beamforming. Opportunistic beamforming increases the degree of multiuser diversity in several scenarios, including correlated channels. Nevertheless, multiuser diversity can also be combined with other transmit schemes that have proven to be effective in correlated channels, such as eigenbeamforming. Eigenbeamforming is a point-to-point link transmit technique that could easily be combined with an opportunistic scheduler to extract multiuser diversity. We refer to the joint use of eigenbeamforming with an opportunistic scheduler as opportunistic eigenbeamforming. In this work, we show that the available multiuser diversity with opportunistic eigenbeamforming is larger than the one achieved when opportunistic beamforming is employed using the proportional fair scheduler under different degrees of correlation in the channel. In the present work we have considered a single-cell scenario.     

A Unified Capacity Analysis for Wireless Systems With Joint Multiuser Scheduling and Antenna Diversity in Nakagami Fading Channels

A Unified Capacity Analysis for Wireless Systems With Joint Multiuser Scheduling and Antenna Diversity in Nakagami Fading Channels In this paper, we present a cross-layer analytical framework to jointly investigate antenna diversity and multiuser scheduling under the generalized Nakagami fading channels. We derive a unified capacity formula for the multiuser scheduling system with different multiple-input multiple-output antenna schemes, including: 1) selective transmission/selective combining (ST/SC); (2) maximum ratio transmission/maximum ratio combining (MRT/MRC); 3) ST/MRC; and 4) space–time block codes (STBC). Our analytical results lead to the following four observations regarding the interplay of multiuser scheduling and antenna diversity. First, the higher the Nakagami fading parameter, the lower the multiuser diversity gain for all the considered antenna schemes. Second, from the standpoint of multiuser scheduling, the multiple antennas with the ST/SC method can be viewed as virtual users to amplify multiuser diversity order. Third, the boosted array gain of the MRT/MRC scheme can compensate the detrimental impact of the reduced amount of fading gain on multiuser scheduling, thereby resulting in greater capacity than the ST/SC method. Last, employing the STBC scheme together with multiuser diversity may cause capacity loss due to the reduced amount of fading gain, but without the supplement of array gain.     

Capacity of Multiuser Diversity with Cooperative Relaying in Wireless Networks

This letter provides an analysis of the interaction between cooperative diversity and multiuser diversity in downlink channels. Through an approximation of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) distribution of each cooperative link using gamma distribution, we can derive an analytic expression for the average throughput of a single-cell wireless system with multiple cooperative diversity links combined with a fair-access scheduler. The proposed analytic approach is verified through comparisons with simulated results and shows that cooperative diversity has a detrimental impact on multiuser diversity.

MIMO MRC Systems with and without Multiuser Diversity

In this paper, we consider the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems employing maximal ratio combining (MRC) in the absence and presence of multiuser diversity. First, using the well-known moment generating function-based analysis approach, we derive the error performance of the MIMO MRC systems without multiuser diversity over spatially correlated fading channels. Second, we present the average capacity of MIMO MRC systems with multiuser diversity. Numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of our analytical expressions.     

Performance Analysis of Multiuser Diversity under Transmit Antenna Correlation

In this paper, we investigate the effect of spatial correlation on throughput performance of downlink multi-antenna transmission schemes exploiting multiuser diversity, in which partial channel information such as signal-to-interference plus noise power ratio (SINR) is available at the transmitter. The asymptotic analysis is performed based on the extreme value theory. From this analysis, we demonstrate that the throughput optimal transmission scheme depends on the degree of the antenna correlation and the operating SNR. Especially, the multiuser spatial multiplexing known as the asymptotically optimal transmission scheme is no longer optimal in highly correlated multiple antenna channels.
