Random Beamforming over Correlated Fading Channels
We study a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channel
(MAC) from several multi-antenna transmitters to a multi-antenna receiver. The
fading channels between the transmitters and the receiver are modeled by random
matrices, composed of independent column vectors with zero mean and different
covariance matrices. Each transmitter is assumed to send multiple data streams
with a random precoding matrix extracted from a Haar-distributed matrix. For
this general channel model, we derive deterministic approximations of the
normalized mutual information, the normalized sum-rate with
minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) detection and the
signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) of the MMSE decoder, which
become arbitrarily tight as all system parameters grow infinitely large at the
same speed. In addition, we derive the asymptotically optimal power allocation
under individual or sum-power constraints. Our results allow us to tackle the
problem of optimal stream control in interference channels which would be
intractable in any finite setting. Numerical results corroborate our analysis
and verify its accuracy for realistic system dimensions. Moreover, the
techniques applied in this paper constitute a novel contribution to the field
of large random matrix theory and could be used to study even more involved
channel models.Comment: 35 pages, 5 figure
Integer-Forcing MIMO Linear Receivers Based on Lattice Reduction
A new architecture called integer-forcing (IF) linear receiver has been
recently proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels,
wherein an appropriate integer linear combination of the received symbols has
to be computed as a part of the decoding process. In this paper, we propose a
method based on Hermite-Korkine-Zolotareff (HKZ) and Minkowski lattice basis
reduction algorithms to obtain the integer coefficients for the IF receiver. We
show that the proposed method provides a lower bound on the ergodic rate, and
achieves the full receive diversity. Suitability of complex
Lenstra-Lenstra-Lovasz (LLL) lattice reduction algorithm (CLLL) to solve the
problem is also investigated. Furthermore, we establish the connection between
the proposed IF linear receivers and lattice reduction-aided MIMO detectors
(with equivalent complexity), and point out the advantages of the former class
of receivers over the latter. For the and MIMO
channels, we compare the coded-block error rate and bit error rate of the
proposed approach with that of other linear receivers. Simulation results show
that the proposed approach outperforms the zero-forcing (ZF) receiver, minimum
mean square error (MMSE) receiver, and the lattice reduction-aided MIMO
detectors.Comment: 9 figures and 11 pages. Modified the title, abstract and some parts

Filter and nested-lattice code design for fading MIMO channels with side-information
Linear-assignment Gel'fand-Pinsker coding (LA-GPC) is a coding technique for
channels with interference known only at the transmitter, where the known
interference is treated as side-information (SI). As a special case of LA-GPC,
dirty paper coding has been shown to be able to achieve the optimal
interference-free rate for interference channels with perfect channel state
information at the transmitter (CSIT). In the cases where only the channel
distribution information at the transmitter (CDIT) is available, LA-GPC also
has good (sometimes optimal) performance in a variety of fast and slow fading
SI channels. In this paper, we design the filters in nested-lattice based
coding to make it achieve the same rate performance as LA-GPC in multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) channels. Compared with the random Gaussian codebooks
used in previous works, our resultant coding schemes have an algebraic
structure and can be implemented in practical systems. A simulation in a
slow-fading channel is also provided, and near interference-free error
performance is obtained. The proposed coding schemes can serve as the
fundamental building blocks to achieve the promised rate performance of MIMO
Gaussian broadcast channels with CDIT or perfect CSITComment: submitted to IEEE Transactions on Communications, Feb, 200
