Spectral Efficiency and Energy Efficiency Tradeoff in Massive MIMO Downlink Transmission with Statistical CSIT
As a key technology for future wireless networks, massive multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) can significantly improve the energy efficiency (EE) and
spectral efficiency (SE), and the performance is highly dependant on the degree
of the available channel state information (CSI). While most existing works on
massive MIMO focused on the case where the instantaneous CSI at the transmitter
(CSIT) is available, it is usually not an easy task to obtain precise
instantaneous CSIT. In this paper, we investigate EE-SE tradeoff in single-cell
massive MIMO downlink transmission with statistical CSIT. To this end, we aim
to optimize the system resource efficiency (RE), which is capable of striking
an EE-SE balance. We first figure out a closed-form solution for the
eigenvectors of the optimal transmit covariance matrices of different user
terminals, which indicates that beam domain is in favor of performing RE
optimal transmission in massive MIMO downlink. Based on this insight, the RE
optimization precoding design is reduced to a real-valued power allocation
problem. Exploiting the techniques of sequential optimization and random matrix
theory, we further propose a low-complexity suboptimal two-layer
water-filling-structured power allocation algorithm. Numerical results
illustrate the effectiveness and near-optimal performance of the proposed
statistical CSI aided RE optimization approach.Comment: Typos corrected. 14 pages, 7 figures. Accepted for publication on

Total and Minimum Energy Efficiency Tradeoff in Robust Multigroup Multicast Satellite Communications
Data Availability: All data needed to evaluate the conclusions of the study are presented in the paper.Copyright © 2023 Bin Jiang et al. Satellite communication is an indispensable part of future wireless communications given its global coverage and long-distance propagation. In satellite communication systems, channel acquisition and energy consumption are two critical issues. To this end, we investigate the tradeoff between the total energy efficiency (TEE) and minimum EE (MEE) for robust multigroup multicast satellite communication systems in this paper. Specifically, under the total power constraint, we investigate the robust beamforming aimed at balancing the TEE-MEE, so as to achieve the balance between the fairness and total performance on the system EE. For this optimization problem, we first model the balancing problem as a nonconvex problem while deriving its approximate closed-form average user rate. Then, the nonconvex problem is handled by solving convex programs sequentially with the help of the semidefinite relaxation and the concave-convex procedure. In addition, depending on the solution rank value, Gaussian randomization and eigenvalue decomposition method are applied to generate the feasible solutions. Finally, simulation results illustrate that the proposed approach can effectively achieve the balance between the TEE and MEE, thus realizing a tradeoff between fairness and system EE performance. It is also indicated that the proposed robust approach outperforms the conventional baselines in terms of EE performance.This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 62341110, the Key Technologies R&D Program of Jiangsu (Prospective and Key Technologies for Industry) under Grants BE2022067 and BE2022067-5, the Jiangsu Province Basic Research Project under Grant BK20192002, the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities under Grants 2242021R41148 and 2242022k60007, and the Young Elite Scientist Sponsorship Program by China Institute of Communications.
