Hybrid Transceiver Optimization for Multi-Hop Communications
Multi-hop communication with the aid of large-scale antenna arrays will play
a vital role in future emergence communication systems. In this paper, we
investigate amplify-and-forward based and multiple-input multiple-output
assisted multi-hop communication, in which all nodes employ hybrid
transceivers. Moreover, channel errors are taken into account in our hybrid
transceiver design. Based on the matrix-monotonic optimization framework, the
optimal structures of the robust hybrid transceivers are derived. By utilizing
these optimal structures, the optimizations of analog transceivers and digital
transceivers can be separated without loss of optimality. This fact greatly
simplifies the joint optimization of analog and digital transceivers. Since the
optimization of analog transceivers under unit-modulus constraints is
non-convex, a projection type algorithm is proposed for analog transceiver
optimization to overcome this difficulty. Based on the derived analog
transceivers, the optimal digital transceivers can then be derived using
matrix-monotonic optimization. Numeral results obtained demonstrate the
performance advantages of the proposed hybrid transceiver designs over other
existing solutions.Comment: 32 pages, 6 figures. This manuscript has been submitted to IEEE

Joint Beamforming and Power Control in Coordinated Multicell: Max-Min Duality, Effective Network and Large System Transition
This paper studies joint beamforming and power control in a coordinated
multicell downlink system that serves multiple users per cell to maximize the
minimum weighted signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio. The optimal solution
and distributed algorithm with geometrically fast convergence rate are derived
by employing the nonlinear Perron-Frobenius theory and the multicell network
duality. The iterative algorithm, though operating in a distributed manner,
still requires instantaneous power update within the coordinated cluster
through the backhaul. The backhaul information exchange and message passing may
become prohibitive with increasing number of transmit antennas and increasing
number of users. In order to derive asymptotically optimal solution, random
matrix theory is leveraged to design a distributed algorithm that only requires
statistical information. The advantage of our approach is that there is no
instantaneous power update through backhaul. Moreover, by using nonlinear
Perron-Frobenius theory and random matrix theory, an effective primal network
and an effective dual network are proposed to characterize and interpret the
asymptotic solution.Comment: Some typos in the version publised in the IEEE Transactions on

Optimal Beamforming for Hybrid Satellite Terrestrial Networks with Nonlinear PA and Imperfect CSIT
In hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks (HSTNs), spectrum sharing is crucial
to alleviate the "spectrum scarcity" problem. Therein, the transmit beams
should be carefully designed to mitigate the inter-satellite-terrestrial
interference. Different from previous studies, this work considers the impact
of both nonlinear power amplifier (PA) and large-scale channel state
information at the transmitter (CSIT) on beamforming. These phenomena are
usually inevitable in a practical HSTN. Based on the Saleh model of PA
nonlinearity and the large-scale multi-beam satellite channel parameters, we
formulate a beamforming optimization problem to maximize the achievable rate of
the satellite system while ensuring that the inter-satellite-terrestrial
interference is below a given threshold. The optimal amplitude and phase of
desired beams are derived in a decoupled manner. Simulation results demonstrate
the superiority of the proposed beamforming scheme.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures, journa
Maximizing sum rate and minimizing MSE on multiuser downlink: Optimality, fast algorithms and equivalence via max-min SIR
Maximizing the minimum weighted SIR, minimizing the weighted sum MSE and maximizing the weighted sum rate in a multiuser downlink system are three important performance objectives in joint transceiver and power optimization, where all the users have a total power constraint. We show that, through connections with the nonlinear Perron-Frobenius theory, jointly optimizing power and beamformers in the max-min weighted SIR problem can be solved optimally in a distributed fashion. Then, connecting these three performance objectives through the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality and nonnegative matrix theory, we solve the weighted sum MSE minimization and weighted sum rate maximization in the low to moderate interference regimes using fast algorithms
