关于MIMO网络中协作基站的最佳数目

On the Optimal Number of Cooperative Base Stations in Network MIMO

Jakob Hoydis, Mari Kobayashi, Merouane Debbah

摘要:

我们考虑多小区上行链路(网络MIMO),其中M个基站(BS)同时与M个用户终端(UT)通信。虽然多小区协作的潜在益处随着M而增加,但是与学习上行链路信道相关的开销将迅速支配上行链路资源。换句话说,对于有限的相干时间,在网络MIMO的性能增益和信道估计中的相关开销之间存在非平凡的权衡。我们使用遍历容量的近似值来研究这种权衡,考虑到一些现实的方面,如不可靠的回程链路和BS和UT之间的不同路径损耗。我们的研究结果提供了一些洞察实际的限制,以及现实的网络MIMO系统的尺寸。

英文摘要:

We consider the multi-cell uplink (network MIMO) where M base-stations (BSs) communicate simultaneously with M user terminals (UTs). Although the potential benefit of multi-cell cooperation increases with M, the overhead related to learning the uplink channels will rapidly dominate the uplink resource. In other words, there exists a non-trivial tradeoff between the performance gains of network MIMO and the related overhead in channel estimation for a finite coherence time. We use a close approximation of the ergodic capacity to study this tradeoff by taking some realistic aspects into account such as unreliable backhaul links and different path losses between the BSs and UTs. Our results provide some insight into practical limitations as well as realistic dimensions of network MIMO systems.
