First, the outage probability at a fixed location in the cell is investigated. Next, an analytical expression of the OPC is derived, which is a function of the AE locations. Then the OPC is used as the objective function of the antenna placement optimization problem, and the complex- encoding GA is used to find the optimal AE locations in the cell. Numerical results show that the optimal AE locations are symmetric about the cell center, and the outage probability contours are also given with the optimal antenna placement. The algorithm has a good convergence and can also be used to determine the number of AEs which should be installed in order to satisfy the certain OPC value. Lastly, verification of the OPC's analytical expression is carried out by Monte Carlo simulations. The OPC with optimal AE locations is about 10% lower than the values with completely random located AEs.展开更多

By ut...An antenna selection algorithm based on large-scale fading between the transmitter and receiver is proposed for the uplink receive antenna selection in distributed multiple-input multiple-output(D-MIMO) systems. By utilizing the radio access units(RAU) selection based on large-scale fading,the proposed algorithm decreases enormously the computational complexity. Based on the characteristics of distributed systems,an improved particle swarm optimization(PSO) has been proposed for the antenna selection after the RAU selection. In order to apply the improved PSO algorithm better in antenna selection,a general form of channel capacity was transformed into a binary expression by analyzing the formula of channel capacity. The proposed algorithm can make full use of the advantages of D-MIMO systems,and achieve near-optimal performance in terms of channel capacity with low computational complexity.展开更多

In such a system, multi-user interference (MUI) is inevitably due to the channel uncertainties caused by quantization error. Considering this, we propose a parameter named effective ergodic capacity rate (EECR), which denotes the capacity offset between finite rate feedback and perfect channel state information (CSI). The simulation results show that the derived approximated EECR is very tight to actual EECR. Based on the approximated EECR, an adaptive minimum bit feedback scheme is proposed, which can effectively reduce the overhead of feedback channel and the complexity of the system. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.展开更多

Our aim is to maximize the EE which is defined as the ratio of the transmission rate to the total consumed power subject to the maximum transmit power of each remote antenna constraint and Qo S(target BER) requirement. According to the definition of EE and using the upper bound of average EE,the optimized objective function is provided. Based on this,utilizing Karush-KuhnTucker conditions and numerical calculation,a suboptimal energy efficient power allocation(PA) scheme is developed,and the closedform expression of PA coefficients is derived. The scheme may obtain the EE performance close to the existing optimal scheme. Moreover,it has relatively lower complexity than the existing scheme because only the statistic channel information and less iteration are required. Simulation results show the presented scheme is valid and can meet the target BER requirement,and the EE can be increased as target BER requirement decreases.展开更多

When the number of relay is assumed to be infinite, the dynamic relay selection method based on the transmission rate is proposed. We represent that with the proposed method, the transmit power and the number of relays are saving.展开更多

However, unlike normal point-to-point multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels, DAS channels have different large-scale fadings from different transmit antennas, thus making equal power and rate transmission that is feasible in MIMO channels unrealistic in DAS channels. This paper proposes a novel transmit antenna selection scheme with power and rate allocation. The scheme is based on large-scale fading (shadow fading and path loss) and is suitable for VBLAST structures with zero-forcing and successive interference cancellation (ZF-SIC) receivers, ensuring balanced average symbol error rate (SER) performance in each layer. On the receiver side, a fixed detection order is used, which is obtained in the transmit antenna selection process. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme gives good performance gains over equal power and rate transmission systems without antenna selection.展开更多

Furthermore, if simulcasting is employed, macro-diversity can decrease thesensitivity of forward-link to channel estimation errors and increase the forward-link outageperformance, which is contrary to the conclusion drawn based on the ideal channel estimationassumption.展开更多
