Joint Precoding and Power Control in Small-Cell Networks With Proportional-Rate MISO-BC Backhaul
In the small-cell networks with multiple-input-single-output broadcasting
(MISO-BC) backhauls, the joint dirty-paper coding and power control are
investigated for the \mbox{MISO-BC} backhauls and access links in order to
minimize the system transmit power. Considering the proportional rates of
MISO-BC backhauls and flow-conservation constraints, the formulated
optimization problem is \mbox{non-convex}. Moreover, the formulated problem
couples the precoding vectors with the power-control variables. In order to
handle the \mbox{non-convex} optimization problem and decouple the backhaul and
access links, the structure of the formulated problem is investigated such that
the optimal precoding vectors and optimal power-control variables are
independently obtained. Moreover, the optimal precoding vectors are obtained in
closed-form expressions. Simulation results are used to show the performance
improvement over the benchmark scheme.Comment: This work was accepted by IEEE Globecom 201
