摘要:

研究了基于频分双工(FDD)的大规模多输入多输出(MIMO)系统下行链路信道估计问题。为了减少FDD系统中下行链路信道估计和上行链路反馈的开销,级联预编码已经被用于大规模MIMO中,使得仅需要估计和反馈低维有效信道。另一方面,传统的信道估计由于缺乏信道的先验知识,很难达到最小均方误差(MMSE)性能。本文设计并分析了一种基于级联预编码的大规模MIMO系统参数模型的下行信道估计策略。对于参数模型,信道频率响应使用路径延迟和相关联的复振幅来表示。上行链路信道的路径延迟首先在基站处被估计和量化,然后通过专用前馈链路被前馈到用户设备(UE)。以这种方式,UE可以提前获得下行链路信道的先验知识,因为已经证明下行链路和上行链路信道可以具有相同的路径延迟。我们的分析和仿真结果表明,所提出的方法可以达到接近MMSE性能。

英文摘要:

This paper investigates downlink channel estimation in frequency-division duplex (FDD)-based massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. To reduce the overhead of downlink channel estimation and uplink feedback in FDD systems, cascaded precoding has been used in massive MIMO such that only a low-dimensional effective channel needs to be estimated and fed back. On the other hand, traditional channel estimations can hardly achieve the minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) performance due to lack of the a priori knowledge of the channels. In this paper, we design and analyze a strategy for downlink channel estimation based on the parametric model in massive MIMO with cascaded precoding. For a parametric model, channel frequency responses are expressed using the path delays and the associated complex amplitudes. The path delays of uplink channels are first estimated and quantized at the base station, then fed forward to the user equipment (UE) through a dedicated feedforward link. In this manner, the UE can obtain the a priori knowledge of the downlink channel in advance since it has been demonstrated that the downlink and the uplink channels can have identical path delays. Our analysis and simulation results show that the proposed approach can achieve near-MMSE performance.
