摘要:

发射机(TX)在各个级别上的协作已经被示出增加多用户多输入多输出(MIMO)系统的总吞吐量。在本文中,我们考虑一个K用户MIMO系统,TX只有全球信道状态的知识。理论上已经表明,干扰对准(IA)实现了该K个用户MIMO干扰信道的K/2个自由度。然而,结果IA和所有建议的收发器技术,该信道到目前为止,假设传统的天线阵列在收发器与多个射频(RF)链,每个连接到一个不同的天线元件。为了减少随之而来的硬件负担和功耗所施加的这种阵列,我们建议在本文中利用紧凑的单射频电子可操纵寄生(无源)阵列辐射器(ESPAR)在合作TX。首先描述了能够捕获所考虑的天线阵列的特性的信号模型,然后介绍了TX的EPAR处的可调谐寄生负载的一般预编码设计方法。针对一个ESPAR TX的3用户2x2 MIMO系统,给出了具体的预编码技术和指示性的ESPAR设计,得到的性能评估结果表明TX协作的增益仍然是可行的。

英文摘要:

Transmitter (TX) cooperation at various levels has been shown to increase the sum throughput of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. In this paper we consider a K-user MIMO system where TXs have only global channel state knowledge. It has been theoretically shown that interference alignment (IA) achieves the K/2 degrees of freedom of this K-user MIMO interference channel. However, results on IA and all proposed transceiver techniques for this channel up to date, assume conventional antenna arrays at the transceivers with multiple radio-frequency (RF) chains, each connected to a different antenna element. To reduce the consequent hardware burden and power dissipation imposed by such arrays, we propose in this paper the utilization of compact single-RF electronically steerable parasitic (passive) array radiators (ESPARs) at the cooperating TXs. A signal model capable of capturing the characteristics of the considered antenna arrays is first described and then a general precoding design methodology for the tunable parasitic loads at the TXs' ESPARs is introduced. Specific precoding techniques and an indicative ESPAR design are presented for a 3-user 2x2 MIMO system with one ESPAR TX, and the obtained performance evaluation results show that the gains of TX cooperation are still feasible.
