This paper focuses on distributed linear precoding when users transmit correlated information over a fading multiple-input and multiple-output multiple access channel. The precoders are optimized in order to minimize the sum-mean square error (MSE) between the source and the estimated symbols. When sources are correlated, minimizing the sum-MSE results in a non-convex optimization problem. The precoders for an arbitrary number of users and transmit and receive antennas are thus obtained via a projected steepest-descent algorithm and a low-complexity heuristic approach. For the more restrictive case of two single-antenna users, a closed-form expression for the minimum sum-MSE precoders is derived. Moreover, for the scenario with a single receive antenna and any number of users, a solution is obtained by means of a semi-definite relaxation. Finally, we also consider precoding schemes where the precoders are decomposed into complex scalars and unit norm vectors. Simulation results show a significant improvement when source correlation is exploited at precoding, especially for low signal-to-noise ratios and when the number of receive antennas is lower than the number of transmitting nodes.

Analog transmission of correlated information over Gaussian broadcast channels (BCs) using analog joint source–channel coding (JSCC) is addressed. This communication strategy has attractive advantages, such as low complexity, minimal delay, graceful degradation, and adaptation to time-varying environments. In this paper, we focus on the optimization of parametric continuous mappings that satisfy individual quality of service requirements over Gaussian BCs. This optimization is based on the balancing of the user distortions to ensure the feasibility of the resulting optimization problems. An analysis of the overall distortion corresponding to the considered mappings is carried out to design algorithms that determine the optimal values for the mappings parameters. Results show that the proposed analog JSCC scheme provides near optimal performance and an adequate balancing of the individual distortions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Second order cone (SOC) restrictions have been widely employed in the design of wireless communication systems to recast precoding optimizations in convex form. This paper highlights the flexibility of this framework to handle various transmit power and interference limitations also in the multistream multiple-input multiple-output broadcast channel with imperfect channel state information at the transmitter. In particular, we propose an iterative solution for mean square error (MSE) balancing with such constraints via the Lagrangian dual formulation. The MSE balancing criteria, contrary to signal-to-interference plus-noise ratio and rate criteria, exhibit an interesting property when considering different targets for the receivers. Users with low target values are strictly prioritized in comparison to users with large MSE targets that can even be switched off. Therefore, only a subset of the receivers is served at the solution with stringent limitations for the precoders. An example of such stringent limitations are small power constraints and probabilistic interference temperature constraints that set a measurable threshold on the generated interference in a cognitive radio system. We provide four different approaches to approximate these probabilistic constraints with deterministic SOC constraints, and compare their accuracy. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

We address the evaluation of low-complexity analog Joint Source Channel Coding (JSCC) methods for the transmission of discrete-time analog symbols over Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Multiple Access Channels (MAC). Analog JSCC is employed to encode the source information at each transmitter prior to be directly input to the MAC access scheme. Three channel access methods are considered to ensure the receiver is able to recover the user information: Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), linear MMSE access codes and opportunistic access. CDMA allows the orthogonal transmission of the user data requiring only Channel State Information (CSI) at reception. On the other hand, linear MMSE access codes exploit CSI knowledge at transmission and exhibit better performance. Finally, opportunistic access also exploits CSI at transmission and allocates all MAC resources to the user with the strongest channel. This latter access scheme exhibits the best performance in terms of sum distortion although it may lead to unfair rate distributions among users. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

We analyze Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) coded modulation systems where either Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation (BICM) with spatial multiplexing or concatenation of channel coding and Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) is used at transmission, assuming iterative Turbo-like decoding at reception. We optimize Serially-Concatenated Low-Density Generator Matrix (SCLDGM) codes (a subclass of LDPC codes) for each system configuration, with the goal of assessing its ability to approach the capacity limits in either ergodic or quasi-static channels. Our focus is on three relevant STBCs: the Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (OSTBCs) for two transmit antennas (i.e., the Alamouti code), which enables optimum detection with low complexity; the Golden code, which provides a capacity increase with respect to the input constellation; and Linear Dispersion (LD) codes, which enable practical detection in asymmetrical antenna configurations (i.e., more transmit than receive antennas) for cases in which optimum detection is infeasible. We conclude that BICM without concatenation with STBCs is in general the best option, except for Alamouti-coded 2×1 and Golden-coded 2×2 MIMO systems. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We consider the robust precoder design for multiuser multiple- input single-output (MU-MISO) systems where the channel state information (CSI) is fed back from the single antenna receivers to the centralized transmitter equipped with multiple antennas. We propose to compress the feedback data by projecting the channel estimates onto a vector basis, known at the receivers and the transmitter, and quantizing the resulting coefficients. The channel estimator and the basis for the rank reduction are jointly optimized by minimizing the mean-square error (MSE) between the true and the rank-reduced CSI. Expressions for the conditional mean and the conditional covariance of the channel are derived which are necessary for the robust precoder design. These expressions take into account the following sources of error: channel estimation, truncation for rank reduction, quantization, and feedback channel delay. As an example for the robust problem formulation, vector precoding (VP) is designed based on the expectation of the MSE conditioned on the fed-back CSI. Our results show that robust precoding based on fed-back CSI clearly outperforms conventional precoding designs which do not take into account the errors in the CSI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we employ a 2 × 2 Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) hardware platform to evaluate, in realistic indoor scenarios, the performance of different space-time block coded (STBC) transmissions at 2.4 GHz. In particular, we focus on the Alamouti orthogonal scheme considering two types of channel state information (CSI) estimation: a conventional pilot-aided supervised technique and a recently proposed blind method based on second-order statistics (SOS). For comparison purposes, we also evaluate the performance of a Differential (non-coherent) space-time block coding (DSTBC). DSTBC schemes have the advantage of not requiring CSI estimation but they incur in a 3 dB loss in performance. The hardware MIMO platform is based on high-performance signal acquisition and generation boards, each one equipped with a 1 GB memory module that allows the transmission of extremely large data frames. Upconversion to RF is performed by two RF vector signal generators whereas downconversion is carried out with two custom circuits designed from commercial components. All the baseband signal processing is implemented off-line in MATLAB®, making the MIMO testbed very flexible and easily reconfigurable. Using this platform we compare the performance of the described methods in line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) indoor scenarios. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A method for channel estimation in wideband massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output systems using hybrid digital analog architectures is developed. The proposed method is useful for Frequency-Division Duplex at either sub-6 GHz or millimeter wave frequency bands and takes into account the beam squint effect caused by the large bandwidth of the signals. To circumvent the estimation of large channel vectors, the posed algorithm relies on the slow time variation of the channel spatial covariance matrix, thus allowing for the utilization of very short training sequences. This is possibledue to the exploitation of the channel structure. After identifying the channel covariance matrix, the channel is estimated on the basis of the recovered information. To that end, we propose a novel method that relies on estimating the tap delays and the gains as sociated with each path. As a consequence, the proposed channel estimator achieves low computational complexity and significantly reduces the training overhead. Moreover, our numerical simulations show better performance results compared to the minimum mean-squared error solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work addresses the design of optimal linear transmit filters for the Multiple Input-Multiple Output (MIMO) Broadcast Channel (BC) when several spatial streams are allocated to each user. We further consider that the Channel State Information (CSI) is perfect at the receivers but is only partial at the transmitter. A statistical model for the partial CSI is assumed and exploited for the filter design. The relationship between average rate and average Mean Square Error (MSE) is studied to determine the optimal way to distribute the per-user rates among the streams. Finally, the feasible average sum-MSE (sMSE) region is studied and the impact of the CSI uncertainty over the overall system performance is evaluated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
