Popis: Downlink of a multiuser MIMO system is considered, in which the base station (BS) and the user terminals are both equipped with multiple antennas. Efficient transmission schemes based on zero-forcing (ZF) linear receiver processing, eigenmode transmission, and partial channel state information (CSI) at the BS transmitter are proposed. The proposed schemes utilize a handshaking procedure between the BS and the users to select (schedule) a subset of users and determine the precoding matrix at the BS. The advantage of the proposed limited feedback schemes lies in enabling relatively low-complexity user scheduling algorithms and high sum-rate throughput, even for a small pool of users. For large user pools and when the number of antennas at each user terminal is at least equal to the number of antennas at the BS, we show that the proposed scheme is asymptotically optimum.
