However, to form a virtual MIMO multi-user system, the resources of two users are brought together. In order to achieve a low spatial correlation, two spaced antennas in the MS have been chosen and four spaced antennas elements in BS have been selected. Therefore, the resources of two users (U1 and U2) are brought together to form a 4 × 4 virtual MIMO multi-user system with the BS. The properties of the user_1 (U1) and user_2 (U2) will be analyzed and compared to those properties of virtual MIMO multi-user system formed by U1 and U2. In most cases, the maximum achievable rate is seen with virtual MIMO multi-user compared to single-user MIMO. So virtual MIMO multi-user is desirable for boosting system capacity than single-user MIMO. .展开更多

The approach taken in this study separated the user pairing into four steps: 1) the users are divided into two groups according to their signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and different user pairing metrics are proposed for each group; 2) the scheduler chooses a user for transmitting by a given rule; 3) the scheduler searches the pairing candidate for the selected user in each group; 4) the scheduler chooses the final pairing user from the co-group and crossover-group candidates by using a marginal utility function, to balance fairness and efficiency. The method can improve the throughput of users with high SNR, and guarantee fairness for users with low SNR, so it can be used in 3G LTE systems. The article provides both theoretical analysis and simulation results to support the idea.展开更多

This paper proposes a pilot placement method for MIMO OFDM systems under time-varying channels with the guard band. The time-varying channel is described by complex exponential basis expansion model (BEM). We discuss the least square (LS) channel estimation to obtain the minimum mean square error (MSE) and derive the pilot allocation that can satisfy the minimum MSE with regard to guard band in time-varying channels. It is shown that optimal pilot clusters can distribute non-uniformly in frequency domain and minimize the MSE. We generalize our scheme over G OFDM symbols and compare it with comb pilots. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach is more effective than previous work. Simulation results validate our theoretical analysis.展开更多

In this paper, a cluster-based virtual VBLAST transmission scheme is proposed to achieve energy savings for energy-constrained wireless sensor networks. In the proposed scheme, instead of using cluster member as cooperative nodes, multiple cluster heads cooperate to form virtual antenna array so that V-BLAST based virtual MIMO transmission can be implemented. Based on the communication energy consumption model, a way to optimize the parameters for the scheme is given. In addition, detailed simulation is performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme for both densely and sparsely deployed sensor networks.
