The future wireless communication systems will use spatial multiplexing with Multiple Input Multiple Output(MIMO) system to take advantage of high spectral efficiencies. In such systems it will be desirable to select a sub-set of available transmit or receive antennas to reduce cost and complexity. In this paper we propose a novel transmit antenna selection schemes for MIMO systems which is suitable for multipath environment. The proposed transmit antenna selection schemes offer better BER performance than that of MIMO systems without antenna selection and with traditionally proposed antenna selection schemes.

In this paper, a novel spatial modulation (SM) with transmit antenna selection (TAS) based on maximizing channel capacity is proposed. Comparing to the conventional TAS technique, the proposed TAS considers the channel capacity of the MIMO channel with antenna selection. The optimal antenna set selection is applied to SM by taking account of the all possible sets, and then, a sub-optimal antenna set selection is also proposed for reducing the computational complexity of the optimal method. Computer simulations show that the proposed TAS significantly outperforms the existing SM scheme based on the magnitude of the channel vectors in terms of bit error rate (BER) in various environments.

IMT-2000 시스템에서 직교 STBC (Space-Time Block Code)와 같은 송신 다이버시티(diversity) 기법은 순방향 링크용량을 향상시킬 수 있다. 그러나 완벽한 다이버시티 (full diversity) 이득과 코드율 1 (full code rate)을 갖는 직교 STBC는 송신안테나 개수가 2개일 경우만 존재한다. 이 논문에서는 4개의 송신안테나와 1개의 수신안테나를 갖는 시스템에서 코드율 1 을 갖는 준직교 STBC를 사용할 경우 안테나 선택적 feedback 정보를 이용하여 완벽한 다이버시티 이득을 얻는 동시에 feedback 정보량은 줄일 수 있음을 보여 준다.

The transmit adaptive array requires the forward link channel information for evaluating the optimum transmit weight vector in which a feedback channel provides transmitter with the forward link channel information. The larger transmit adaptive array is, the higher required rate of feedback channel is. Therefore we consider the system that the N-transmit antenna system is expanded to the 2N-transmit antenna system, while the feedback channel is maintained as that of N-transmit antenna system. The increase of the number of antennas can produce the additional diversity gain, however the insufficient feedback bits assigned to each antenna aggravates the quantization error. In this paper, we propose the transmit antenna selection in order to improve the performance of transmit adaptive array having an insufficient feedback channel information. The effective method to transmit the weight vector is also introduced. System performances are investigated for the case of N=4 corresponding to the antenna selection diversity schemes on the flat fading channel and the multipath fading channel. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can improve the system performance by 1 dB when the N is expanded to the 2N, while the feedback channel is restricted to that of N-transmit antenna system.

Intensive researches on multiuser-based Massive MIMO are performed to increase the spectral efficiency. Although the Massive MIMO scheme based on huge number of antennas inevitably causes hardware and computational complexity in baseband and radio frequency (RF) elements, the problem can be mitigated without serious performance degradation by limiting the number of baseband and RF elements below the number of transmit antennas of base station and opportunistically selecting transmit antennas according to channel states. Accordingly, this paper proposes a simple antenna selection scheme for multiuser-based Massive MIMO systems.

This paper proposes the efficient transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme considering trade-off between the performance and the complexity in massive MIMO system. The massive MIMO system is a core technology to achieve performance objectives for 5 generation wireless communication. It achieve high spectral efficiency, a reliability, and a diversity gain. However many RF chains required by massive transmit antennas equipped in a base station create the problem such as high hardware cost and complexity. Therefor we investigates the transmit antenna selection scheme, in which the number of RF chains of BS is reduced, and the trade-off between the performance and the complexity is considered for proposed scheme. And, the spectral efficiency and complexity are analysed by transmit antenna selection schemes.

Massive MIMO communication system with huge antennas has been attracting intensive attention as one of key technologies to increase the spectral efficiency. Many previous studies investigated single user Massive MIMO scheme in cellular downlink. Recently, however, intensive researches on multiuser-based Massive MIMO are performed to overcome the problem caused by the limited number of antennas in mobile stations. Although the Massive MIMO scheme based on huge number of antennas inevitably causes hardware and computational complexity in baseband and radio frequency (RF) elements, the problem can be mitigated without serious performance degradation by limiting the number of baseband and RF elements below the number of transmit antennas of base station and opportunistically selecting transmit antennas according to channel states, where the number of selected antennas corresponds to the number of baseband and RF elements in base station. Accordingly, this paper proposes a simple antenna selection scheme for multiuser-based Massive MIMO systems. Our simulation results indicate that the proposed antenna selection scheme can achieve comparable performance to the conventional scheme without antenna selection.

In this paper, we consider a downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) using multiple transmit antennas, where the transmit antenna selection scheme is used to reduce the system complexity. Thus, in this paper, we propose radio resource allocation and receiver selection schemes in order to improve the outage probability performance of the downlink NOMA system using the transmit antenna selection scheme. In particular, the receiver selection scheme is a method of grouping the receivers to improve the outage probability performance, and the radio resource allocation scheme is a method of allocating radio resources to each group in order to enhance the outage probability performance. In addition, through the computer simulation under the assumption of independent Rayleigh fading channels, we show that the proposed radio resource allocation and receiver selection schemes can improve the outage probability performance at the expense of the sum rate performance.

Recent work has been shown that cognitive radio systems with multiple antenna at both transmitter and receiver are able to improve performance of secondary users. In such system, the main drawback is the increased complexity and raised cost as the number of antennas increase. It is desirable to apply antenna selection which select a subset of the available antennas so as to solve these problems. In this paper, we consider antenna selection method for cognitive radio systems in correlated channel from the IEEE 802.11n. For a multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) system with more antennas at transmitter than the receiver, we select the same number of transmit antennas as that of receive antennas. The exhaustive search for optimal antenna becomes impractical. We present criterion for selecting subset in terms of projection of channel correlation vector to increase performance of secondary user with decreasing interference at primary user.

In this paper, using received channel information, we analyze performance in MIMO multiuser system in low-to-medium mobile speed by selecting each user's constellations, powers, and transmit antennas. Given a target of symbol error, we determine each user's constellations, powers, selected tranprobability smit antennas such that the required signal-to-noise(SNR) is minimized for MMSE, V-BLAST receiver according to each user's information and channel estimation information. When we do power control with antenna selection technique through uplink channels of MIMO system in low-to-medium mobile speed, we analyze system performance with wireless channel information from Base-Station(BS) to Users. By simulation, it has been shown that the proposed antenna selection scheme for transmitting data offer better performance improvement than all transmit antennas for transmitting data.
