Resource allocation for transmit hybrid beamforming in decoupled millimeter wave multiuser-MIMO downlink
This paper presents a study on joint radio resource allocation and hybrid precoding in multicarrier massive multiple-input multiple-output communications for 5G cellular networks. In this paper, we present the resource allocation algorithm to maximize the proportional fairness (PF) spectral efficiency under the per subchannel power and the beamforming rank constraints. Two heuristic algorithms are designed. The proportional fairness hybrid beamforming algorithm provides the transmit precoder with a proportional fair spectral efficiency among users for the desired number of radio-frequency (RF) chains. Then, we transform the number of RF chains or rank constrained optimization problem into convex semidefinite programming (SDP) problem, which can be solved by standard techniques. Inspired by the formulated convex SDP problem, a low-complexity, two-step, PF-relaxed optimization algorithm has been provided for the formulated convex optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed suboptimal solution to the relaxed optimization problem is near-optimal for the signal-to-noise ratio SNR <= 10 dB and has a performance gap not greater than 2.33 b/s/Hz within the SNR range 0-25 dB. It also outperforms the maximum throughput and PF-based hybrid beamforming schemes for sum spectral efficiency, individual spectral efficiency, and fairness index
A Generalized Framework on Beamformer Design and CSI Acquisition for Single-Carrier Massive MIMO Systems in Millimeter Wave Channels
In this paper, we establish a general framework on the reduced dimensional
channel state information (CSI) estimation and pre-beamformer design for
frequency-selective massive multiple-input multiple-output MIMO systems
employing single-carrier (SC) modulation in time division duplex (TDD) mode by
exploiting the joint angle-delay domain channel sparsity in millimeter (mm)
wave frequencies. First, based on a generic subspace projection taking the
joint angle-delay power profile and user-grouping into account, the reduced
rank minimum mean square error (RR-MMSE) instantaneous CSI estimator is derived
for spatially correlated wideband MIMO channels. Second, the statistical
pre-beamformer design is considered for frequency-selective SC massive MIMO
channels. We examine the dimension reduction problem and subspace (beamspace)
construction on which the RR-MMSE estimation can be realized as accurately as
possible. Finally, a spatio-temporal domain correlator type reduced rank
channel estimator, as an approximation of the RR-MMSE estimate, is obtained by
carrying out least square (LS) estimation in a proper reduced dimensional
beamspace. It is observed that the proposed techniques show remarkable
robustness to the pilot interference (or contamination) with a significant
reduction in pilot overhead
Hybrid Analog-Digital Precoding for Interference Exploitation
We study the multi-user massive multiple-input-single-output (MISO) and focus
on the downlink systems where the base station (BS) employs hybrid
analog-digital precoding with low-cost 1-bit digital-to-analog converters
(DACs). In this paper, we propose a hybrid downlink transmission scheme where
the analog precoder is formed based on the SVD decomposition. In the digital
domain, instead of designing a linear transmit precoding matrix, we directly
design the transmit signals by exploiting the concept of constructive
interference. The optimization problem is then formulated based on the geometry
of the modulation constellations and is shown to be non-convex. We relax the
above optimization and show that the relaxed optimization can be transformed
into a linear programming that can be efficiently solved. Numerical results
validate the superiority of the proposed scheme for the hybrid massive MIMO
downlink systems.Comment: 5 pages, EUSIPCO 201
