Optimization of Training and Feedback Overhead for Beamforming over Block Fading Channels
We examine the capacity of beamforming over a single-user, multi-antenna link
taking into account the overhead due to channel estimation and limited feedback
of channel state information. Multi-input single-output (MISO) and multi-input
multi-output (MIMO) channels are considered subject to block Rayleigh fading.
Each coherence block contains symbols, and is spanned by training
symbols, feedback bits, and the data symbols. The training symbols are used
to obtain a Minimum Mean Squared Error estimate of the channel matrix. Given
this estimate, the receiver selects a transmit beamforming vector from a
codebook containing {\em i.i.d.} random vectors, and sends the
corresponding bits back to the transmitter. We derive bounds on the
beamforming capacity for MISO and MIMO channels and characterize the optimal
(rate-maximizing) training and feedback overhead ( and ) as and the
number of transmit antennas both become large. The optimal is
limited by the coherence time, and increases as . For the MISO
channel the optimal and (fractional overhead due to training and
feedback) are asymptotically the same, and tend to zero at the rate . For the MIMO channel the optimal feedback overhead tends to zero
faster (as ).Comment: accepted for IEEE Trans. Info. Theory, 201
Limited Feedback in Multiple-Antenna Systems with One-Bit Quantization
Communication systems with low-resolution analog-to-digital-converters (ADCs)
can exploit channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) and receiver.
This paper presents initial results on codebook design and performance analysis
for limited feedback systems with one-bit ADCs. Different from the
high-resolution case, the absolute phase at the receiver is important to align
the phase of the received signals when the received signal is sliced by one-bit
ADCs. A new codebook design for the beamforming case is proposed that
separately quantizes the channel direction and the residual phase.Comment: Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers 201
Limited Feedback Design for Interference Alignment on MIMO Interference Networks with Heterogeneous Path Loss and Spatial Correlations
Interference alignment is degree of freedom optimal in K -user MIMO
interference channels and many previous works have studied the transceiver
designs. However, these works predominantly focus on networks with perfect
channel state information at the transmitters and symmetrical interference
topology. In this paper, we consider a limited feedback system with
heterogeneous path loss and spatial correlations, and investigate how the
dynamics of the interference topology can be exploited to improve the feedback
efficiency. We propose a novel spatial codebook design, and perform dynamic
quantization via bit allocations to adapt to the asymmetry of the interference
topology. We bound the system throughput under the proposed dynamic scheme in
terms of the transmit SNR, feedback bits and the interference topology
parameters. It is shown that when the number of feedback bits scales with SNR
as C_{s}\cdot\log\textrm{SNR}, the sum degrees of freedom of the network are
preserved. Moreover, the value of scaling coefficient C_{s} can be
significantly reduced in networks with asymmetric interference topology.Comment: 30 pages, 6 figures, accepted by IEEE transactions on signal
