Robust Transceiver Design Based on Interference Alignment for Multi-User Multi-Cell MIMO Networks with Channel Uncertainty
In this paper, we firstly exploit the inter-user interference (IUI) and
inter-cell interference (ICI) as useful references to develop a robust
transceiver design based on interference alignment for a downlink multi-user
multi-cell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) interference network under
channel estimation error. At transmitters, we propose a two-tier transmit
beamforming strategy, we first achieve the inner beamforming direction and
allocated power by minimizing the interference leakage as well as maximizing
the system energy efficiency, respectively. Then, for the outer beamformer
design, we develop an efficient conjugate gradient Grassmann manifold subspace
tracking algorithm to minimize the distances between the subspace spanned by
interference and the interference subspace in the time varying channel. At
receivers, we propose a practical interference alignment based on fast and
robust fast data projection method (FDPM) subspace tracking algorithm, to
achieve the receive beamformer under channel uncertainty. Numerical results
show that our proposed robust transceiver design achieves better performance
compared with some existing methods in terms of the sum rate and the energy
efficiency.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figure
