    Multiuser selection scheduling concept has been recently proposed in the literature in order to increase the multiuser diversity gain and overcome the significant feedback requirements for the opportunistic scheduling schemes. The main idea is that reducing the feedback overhead saves per-user power that could potentially be added for the data transmission. In this work, we propose to integrate the principle of multiuser selection and the proportional fair scheduling scheme. This is aimed especially at power-limited, multi-device systems in non-identically distributed fading channels. For the performance analysis, we derive closed-form expressions for the outage probabilities and the average system rate of the delay-sensitive and the delay-tolerant systems, respectively, and compare them with the full feedback multiuser diversity schemes. The discrete rate region is analytically presented, where the maximum average system rate can be obtained by properly choosing the number of partial devices. We optimize jointly the number of partial devices and the per-device power saving in order to maximize the average system rate under the power requirement. Through our results, we finally demonstrate that the proposed scheme leveraging the saved feedback power to add for the data transmission can outperform the full feedback multiuser diversity, in non-identical Rayleigh fading of devices’ channels

    Delay Performance of MISO Wireless Communications

    Ultra-reliable, low latency communications (URLLC) are currently attracting significant attention due to the emergence of mission-critical applications and device-centric communication. URLLC will entail a fundamental paradigm shift from throughput-oriented system design towards holistic designs for guaranteed and reliable end-to-end latency. A deep understanding of the delay performance of wireless networks is essential for efficient URLLC systems. In this paper, we investigate the network layer performance of multiple-input, single-output (MISO) systems under statistical delay constraints. We provide closed-form expressions for MISO diversity-oriented service process and derive probabilistic delay bounds using tools from stochastic network calculus. In particular, we analyze transmit beamforming with perfect and imperfect channel knowledge and compare it with orthogonal space-time codes and antenna selection. The effect of transmit power, number of antennas, and finite blocklength channel coding on the delay distribution is also investigated. Our higher layer performance results reveal key insights of MISO channels and provide useful guidelines for the design of ultra-reliable communication systems that can guarantee the stringent URLLC latency requirements.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.
