Interference Alignment Through User Cooperation for Two-cell MIMO Interfering Broadcast Channels
This paper focuses on two-cell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian
interfering broadcast channels (MIMO-IFBC) with cooperating users on the
cell-boundary of each BS. It corresponds to a downlink scenario for cellular
networks with two base stations (BSs), and users equipped with Wi-Fi
interfaces enabling to cooperate among users on a peer-to-peer basis. In this
scenario, we propose a novel interference alignment (IA) technique exploiting
user cooperation. Our proposed algorithm obtains the achievable degrees of
freedom (DoF) of 2K when each BS and user have transmit antennas and
receive antennas, respectively. Furthermore, the algorithm requires only
a small amount of channel feedback information with the aid of the user
cooperation channels. The simulations demonstrate that not only are the
analytical results valid, but the achievable DoF of our proposed algorithm also
outperforms those of conventional techniques.Comment: This paper will appear in IEEE GLOBECOM 201
SVD Aided Joint Transmitter and Receiver Design for the Uplink of Multiuser Detection Assisted MIMO Systems,
A novel singular value decomposition (SVD) aided uplink (UL) multiuser MIMO system is proposed. In contrast to the traditional minimum mean square error (MMSE) or zeroforcing (ZF) multiuser detection (MUD) technique, the proposed method exploits the specific characteristics of the individual users’ channel matrix, instead of treating all the users’ channels jointly. Furthermore, two different power allocation schemes are investigated in the context of the proposed structure. One of them was designed for achieving the maximum information rate, while the other for maintaining the maximum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We demonstrate that the capacity of the proposed scheme using the maximum information rate based power allocation policy is higher than that of the classic ZF receiver for the UL
