Capacity of multiple-antenna systems with both receiver and transmitter channel state information

The capacity of multiple-antenna systems operating in Rayleigh flat fading is considered under the assumptions that channel state information (CSI) is available at both transmitter and receiver, and that the transmitter is subjected to an average power constraint. First, the capacity of such systems is derived for the special case of multiple transmit antennas and a single receive antenna. The optimal power-allocation scheme for such a system is shown to be a water-filling algorithm, and the corresponding capacity is seen to be the same as that of a system having multiple receive antennas (with a single transmitter antenna) whose outputs are combined via maximal ratio combining. A suboptimal adaptive transmission technique that transmits only over the antenna having the best channel is also proposed for this special case. It is shown that the capacity of such a system under the proposed suboptimal adaptive transmission scheme is the same as the capacity of a system having multiple receiver antennas (with a single transmitter antenna) combined via selection combining. Next, the capacity of a general system of multiple transmitter and receiver antennas is derived together with an equation that determines the cutoff value for such a system. The optimal power allocation scheme for such a multiple-antenna system is given by a matrix water-filling algorithm. In order to eliminate the need for cumbersome numerical techniques in solving the cutoff equation, approximate expressions for the cutoff transmission value are also provided. It is shown that, compared to the case in which there is only receiver CSI, large capacity gains are available with optimal power and rate adaptation schemes. The increased capacity is shown to come at the price of channel outage, and bounds are derived for this outage probability.

Spatio-temporal channel characterization: theoretical framework and applications in MIMO system design

The utilization of multiple antennas and space–time codes in multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems significantly improves the transmission channel capacity without using additional bandwidth and power. The improvement is achieved by decomposing the spatial structure of transmission channels and performing appropriate temporal and spatial multiplexing. In this paper, we propose a novel theoretical framework for MIMO channel modeling and characterization in order to facilitate the MIMO system design and performance evaluation. The channels are represented in space, time, wave vector, and frequency domains while the space–time and wave vector–frequency interdependences are considered. A realization of the theoretical framework, in a form of a practical framework, is also proposed to address the channel modeling and characterization at both transmitter and receiver sides. The utilization of the practical framework in MIMO communication system design is discussed to illustrate its applications in realistic scenarios. The angle of arrival estimation based on the proposed practical framework using field test measurement data is also presented as illustrative examples.     

An innovative power regulation method applied for wireless magnetic-energy transportation

An innovative power regulation design and realization is proposed for wireless micro-power transmission. The proposed power regulation method is employed to regulate the power intensity transmitted by magnetic flux transmitter, based on distance change and angle misalignment between transmitter and receiver. Therefore, not only the power transmitted by magnetic flux transmitter is adjustable, but also consistent power received by locomotive devices can be achieved. Firstly, by Faraday’s law and Kirchhoff’s circuit law, the dynamic equation for proposed wireless power transmission is constructed. The distance change and angle misalignment between transmitter and receiver are also considered to reflect the influence on power received by micro-devices. In order to ensure that the power received by receiver is consistent at various locations along an ellipse trajectory, the sliding mode controller is synthesized to regulate the power transmitted by the magnetic energy source. In addition, the sliding mode estimator is also employed so that not only the system states can be estimated, but also the cost for sensors and the physical size of secondary side can be much reduced. By intensive simulation, no matter which distance and misalignment angle between transmitter and receiver is present, stable and consistent power at receiver can be achieved. Finally, the test rig for wireless micro-power transmission is constructed for performance verification. The experimental result shows that the constant power at receiver can be obtained if the SMC controller is applied to regulate the output power by transmitter.     

Optimal transmission strategies and impact of correlation in multiantenna systems with different types of channel state information

We study the optimal transmission strategy of a multiple-input single-output (MISO) wireless communication link. The receiver has perfect channel state information (CSI), while the transmitter has different types of CSI, i.e., either perfect CSI, or no CSI, or long-term knowledge of the channel covariance matrix. For the case in which the transmitter knows the channel covariance matrix, it was recently shown that the optimal eigenvectors of the transmit covariance matrix correspond with the eigenvectors of the channel covariance matrix. However, the optimal eigenvalues are difficult to compute. We derive a characterization of the optimum power allocation. Furthermore, we apply this result to provide an efficient algorithm which computes the optimum power allocation. In addition to this, we analyze the impact of correlation on the ergodic capacity of the MISO system with different CSI schemes. At first, we justify the belief that equal power allocation is optimal if the transmitter is uninformed and the transmit antennas are correlated. Next, we show that the ergodic capacity with perfect CSI and without CSI at the transmitter is Schur-concave, i.e., the more correlated the transmit antennas are, the less capacity is achievable. In addition, we show that the ergodic capacity with covariance knowledge at the transmitter is Schur-convex with respect to the correlation properties. These results completely characterize the impact of correlation on the ergodic capacity in MISO systems. Furthermore, the capacity loss or gain due to correlation is quantified. For no CSI and perfect CSI at the transmitter, the capacity loss due to correlation is bounded by some small constant, whereas the capacity gain due to correlation grows unbounded with the number of transmit antennas in the case in which transmitter knows the channel covariance matrix. Finally, we illustrate all theoretical results by numerical simulations.

Compensation of non-reciprocal interference in adaptive MIMO-OFDM cellular systems

In a time-division-duplex communication system, the channel knowledge can be obtained at the transmitter side due to channel reciprocity and it can be used to increase the spectral efficiency of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. However, the interference structure between transmission directions does not necessarily correlate. The obtained quality of service at the receiver may differ significantly from the desired one if the transmission parameters are assigned based on the reverse link measurements only. In this paper, the performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) cellular system with adaptive MIMO transmission is studied in the presence of non-reciprocal inter-cell interference when the downlink interference structure is known at the receiver and only limited feedback information about the interference is available at the transmitter. The results are compared to those with perfectly known interference structure per each sub-carrier. The system level impact of realistic interference non-reciprocity scenarios is studied via network simulations. Linear minimum mean squared error (MMSE) filter is applied at the receiver to suppress the impact of structured inter-cell interference together with a simple and bandwidth efficient closed-loop compensation algorithm. Both link and system level simulation results show that the proposed compensation algorithm with a simple scalar power offset feedback combined with interference suppression at the receiver results in nearly the same performance as the ideal case
