Interference Alignment with Limited Feedback on Two-cell Interfering Two-User MIMO-MAC
In this paper, we consider a two-cell interfering two-user multiple-input
multiple-output multiple access channel (MIMO-MAC) with limited feedback. We
first investigate the multiplexing gain of such channel when users have perfect
channel state information at transmitter (CSIT) by exploiting an interference
alignment scheme. In addition, we propose a feedback framework for the
interference alignment in the limited feedback system. On the basis of the
proposed feedback framework, we analyze the rate gap loss and it is shown that
in order to keep the same multiplexing gain with the case of perfect CSIT, the
number of feedback bits per receiver scales as , where and denote the number of
transmit antennas and a constant, respectively. Throughout the simulation
results, it is shown that the sum-rate performance coincides with the derived
results.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, Submitted ICC 201
Space Division Multiple Access with a Sum Feedback Rate Constraint
On a multi-antenna broadcast channel, simultaneous transmission to multiple
users by joint beamforming and scheduling is capable of achieving high
throughput, which grows double logarithmically with the number of users. The
sum rate for channel state information (CSI) feedback, however, increases
linearly with the number of users, reducing the effective uplink capacity. To
address this problem, a novel space division multiple access (SDMA) design is
proposed, where the sum feedback rate is upper-bounded by a constant. This
design consists of algorithms for CSI quantization, threshold based CSI
feedback, and joint beamforming and scheduling. The key feature of the proposed
approach is the use of feedback thresholds to select feedback users with large
channel gains and small CSI quantization errors such that the sum feedback rate
constraint is satisfied. Despite this constraint, the proposed SDMA design is
shown to achieve a sum capacity growth rate close to the optimal one. Moreover,
the feedback overflow probability for this design is found to decrease
exponentially with the difference between the allowable and the average sum
feedback rates. Numerical results show that the proposed SDMA design is capable
of attaining higher sum capacities than existing ones, even though the sum
feedback rate is bounded.Comment: 29 pages; submitted to IEEE Transactions on Signal Processin
Asynchronous multiple-access channel capacity
The capacity region for the discrete memoryless multiple-access channel without time synchronization at the transmitters and receivers is shown to be the same as the known capacity region for the ordinary multiple-access channel. The proof utilizes time sharing of two optimal codes for the ordinary multiple-access channel and uses maximum likelihood decoding over shifts of the hypothesized transmitter words
