Robust Sum MSE Optimization for Downlink Multiuser MIMO Systems with Arbitrary Power Constraint: Generalized Duality Approach
This paper considers linear minimum meansquare- error (MMSE) transceiver
design problems for downlink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
systems where imperfect channel state information is available at the base
station (BS) and mobile stations (MSs). We examine robust sum mean-square-error
(MSE) minimization problems. The problems are examined for the generalized
scenario where the power constraint is per BS, per BS antenna, per user or per
symbol, and the noise vector of each MS is a zero-mean circularly symmetric
complex Gaussian random variable with arbitrary covariance matrix. For each of
these problems, we propose a novel duality based iterative solution. Each of
these problems is solved as follows. First, we establish a novel sum average
meansquare- error (AMSE) duality. Second, we formulate the power allocation
part of the problem in the downlink channel as a Geometric Program (GP). Third,
using the duality result and the solution of GP, we utilize alternating
optimization technique to solve the original downlink problem. To solve robust
sum MSE minimization constrained with per BS antenna and per BS power problems,
we have established novel downlink-uplink duality. On the other hand, to solve
robust sum MSE minimization constrained with per user and per symbol power
problems, we have established novel downlink-interference duality. For the
total BS power constrained robust sum MSE minimization problem, the current
duality is established by modifying the constraint function of the dual uplink
channel problem. And, for the robust sum MSE minimization with per BS antenna
and per user (symbol) power constraint problems, our duality are established by
formulating the noise covariance matrices of the uplink and interference
channels as fixed point functions, respectively.Comment: IEEE TSP Journa
Sum Throughput Maximization in Multi-Tag Backscattering to Multiantenna Reader
Backscatter communication (BSC) is being realized as the core technology for
pervasive sustainable Internet-of-Things applications. However, owing to the
resource-limitations of passive tags, the efficient usage of multiple antennas
at the reader is essential for both downlink excitation and uplink detection.
This work targets at maximizing the achievable sum-backscattered-throughput by
jointly optimizing the transceiver (TRX) design at the reader and
backscattering coefficients (BC) at the tags. Since, this joint problem is
nonconvex, we first present individually-optimal designs for the TRX and BC. We
show that with precoder and {combiner} designs at the reader respectively
targeting downlink energy beamforming and uplink Wiener filtering operations,
the BC optimization at tags can be reduced to a binary power control problem.
Next, the asymptotically-optimal joint-TRX-BC designs are proposed for both low
and high signal-to-noise-ratio regimes. Based on these developments, an
iterative low-complexity algorithm is proposed to yield an efficient
jointly-suboptimal design. Thereafter, we discuss the practical utility of the
proposed designs to other application settings like wireless powered
communication networks and BSC with imperfect channel state information.
Lastly, selected numerical results, validating the analysis and shedding novel
insights, demonstrate that the proposed designs can yield significant
enhancement in the sum-backscattered throughput over existing benchmarks.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on

Cognitive Orthogonal Precoder for Two-tiered Networks Deployment
In this work, the problem of cross-tier interference in a two-tiered
(macro-cell and cognitive small-cells) network, under the complete spectrum
sharing paradigm, is studied. A new orthogonal precoder transmit scheme for the
small base stations, called multi-user Vandermonde-subspace frequency division
multiplexing (MU-VFDM), is proposed. MU-VFDM allows several cognitive small
base stations to coexist with legacy macro-cell receivers, by nulling the
small- to macro-cell cross-tier interference, without any cooperation between
the two tiers. This cleverly designed cascaded precoder structure, not only
cancels the cross-tier interference, but avoids the co-tier interference for
the small-cell network. The achievable sum-rate of the small-cell network,
satisfying the interference cancelation requirements, is evaluated for perfect
and imperfect channel state information at the transmitter. Simulation results
for the cascaded MU-VFDM precoder show a comparable performance to that of
state-of-the-art dirty paper coding technique, for the case of a dense cellular
layout. Finally, a comparison between MU-VFDM and a standard complete spectrum
separation strategy is proposed. Promising gains in terms of achievable
sum-rate are shown for the two-tiered network w.r.t. the traditional bandwidth
management approach.Comment: 11 pages, 9 figures, accepted and to appear in IEEE Journal on

A Hierarchical Rate Splitting Strategy for FDD Massive MIMO under Imperfect CSIT
In a multiuser MIMO broadcast channel, the rate performance is affected by
the multiuser interference when the Channel State Information at the
Transmitter (CSIT) is imperfect. To tackle the interference problem, a
Rate-Splitting (RS) approach has been proposed recently, which splits one
user's message into a common and a private part, and superimposes the common
message on top of the private messages. The common message is drawn from a
public codebook and should be decoded by all users. In this paper, we propose a
novel and general framework, denoted as Hierarchical Rate Splitting (HRS), that
is particularly suited to FDD massive MIMO systems. HRS simultaneously
transmits private messages intended to each user and two kinds of common
messages that can be decoded by all users and by a subset of users,
respectively. We analyse the asymptotic sum rate of HRS under imperfect CSIT. A
closed-form power allocation is derived which provides insights into the
effects of system parameters. Finally, simulation results validate the
significant sum rate gain of HRS over various baselines.Comment: Accepted paper at IEEE CAMAD 201
