Cooperative Precoding with Limited Feedback for MIMO Interference Channels
Multi-antenna precoding effectively mitigates the interference in wireless
networks. However, the resultant performance gains can be significantly
compromised in practice if the precoder design fails to account for the
inaccuracy in the channel state information (CSI) feedback. This paper
addresses this issue by considering finite-rate CSI feedback from receivers to
their interfering transmitters in the two-user multiple-input-multiple-output
(MIMO) interference channel, called cooperative feedback, and proposing a
systematic method for designing transceivers comprising linear precoders and
equalizers. Specifically, each precoder/equalizer is decomposed into inner and
outer components for nulling the cross-link interference and achieving array
gain, respectively. The inner precoders/equalizers are further optimized to
suppress the residual interference resulting from finite-rate cooperative
feedback. Further- more, the residual interference is regulated by additional
scalar cooperative feedback signals that are designed to control transmission
power using different criteria including fixed interference margin and maximum
sum throughput. Finally, the required number of cooperative precoder feedback
bits is derived for limiting the throughput loss due to precoder quantization.Comment: 23 pages; 5 figures; this work was presented in part at Asilomar 2011

Sum Throughput Maximization in Multi-Tag Backscattering to Multiantenna Reader
Backscatter communication (BSC) is being realized as the core technology for
pervasive sustainable Internet-of-Things applications. However, owing to the
resource-limitations of passive tags, the efficient usage of multiple antennas
at the reader is essential for both downlink excitation and uplink detection.
This work targets at maximizing the achievable sum-backscattered-throughput by
jointly optimizing the transceiver (TRX) design at the reader and
backscattering coefficients (BC) at the tags. Since, this joint problem is
nonconvex, we first present individually-optimal designs for the TRX and BC. We
show that with precoder and {combiner} designs at the reader respectively
targeting downlink energy beamforming and uplink Wiener filtering operations,
the BC optimization at tags can be reduced to a binary power control problem.
Next, the asymptotically-optimal joint-TRX-BC designs are proposed for both low
and high signal-to-noise-ratio regimes. Based on these developments, an
iterative low-complexity algorithm is proposed to yield an efficient
jointly-suboptimal design. Thereafter, we discuss the practical utility of the
proposed designs to other application settings like wireless powered
communication networks and BSC with imperfect channel state information.
Lastly, selected numerical results, validating the analysis and shedding novel
insights, demonstrate that the proposed designs can yield significant
enhancement in the sum-backscattered throughput over existing benchmarks.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on
