Filter and nested-lattice code design for fading MIMO channels with side-information
Linear-assignment Gel'fand-Pinsker coding (LA-GPC) is a coding technique for
channels with interference known only at the transmitter, where the known
interference is treated as side-information (SI). As a special case of LA-GPC,
dirty paper coding has been shown to be able to achieve the optimal
interference-free rate for interference channels with perfect channel state
information at the transmitter (CSIT). In the cases where only the channel
distribution information at the transmitter (CDIT) is available, LA-GPC also
has good (sometimes optimal) performance in a variety of fast and slow fading
SI channels. In this paper, we design the filters in nested-lattice based
coding to make it achieve the same rate performance as LA-GPC in multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) channels. Compared with the random Gaussian codebooks
used in previous works, our resultant coding schemes have an algebraic
structure and can be implemented in practical systems. A simulation in a
slow-fading channel is also provided, and near interference-free error
performance is obtained. The proposed coding schemes can serve as the
fundamental building blocks to achieve the promised rate performance of MIMO

Adaptive Differential Feedback in Time-Varying Multiuser MIMO Channels
In the context of a time-varying multiuser multiple-input-multiple-output
(MIMO) system, we design recursive least squares based adaptive predictors and
differential quantizers to minimize the sum mean squared error of the overall
system. Using the fact that the scalar entries of the left singular matrix of a
Gaussian MIMO channel becomes almost Gaussian distributed even for a small
number of transmit antennas, we perform adaptive differential quantization of
the relevant singular matrix entries. Compared to the algorithms in the
existing differential feedback literature, our proposed quantizer provides
three advantages: first, the controller parameters are flexible enough to adapt
themselves to different vehicle speeds; second, the model is backward adaptive
i.e., the base station and receiver can agree upon the predictor and variance
estimator coefficients without explicit exchange of the parameters; third, it
can accurately model the system even when the correlation between two
successive channel samples becomes as low as 0.05. Our simulation results show
that our proposed method can reduce the required feedback by several kilobits
per second for vehicle speeds up to 20 km/h (channel tracker) and 10 km/h
(singular vector tracker). The proposed system also outperforms a fixed
quantizer, with same feedback overhead, in terms of bit error rate up to 30
km/h.Comment: IEEE 22nd International Conference on Personal, Indoor and Mobile
