In this paper, adaptive optimizations of precoder codebook to channel conditions is proposed for a multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with split linear array and limited feedback. We propose adaptive method for constructing a precoder codebook by coloring the random vector quantization codebook at each link by using limited long-term feedback information on transmit correlation matrix of each link. It is shown that the proposed multiuser MIMO codebook design scheme outperforms existing multiuser MIMO codebook design schemes for various channel conditions in terms of the average sum throughput of multiuser MIMO systems using zero-forcing maximum eigenmode transmission and limited feedback.

Based on wideband precoding (WBP) in the multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system, an adaptive nonuniform codebook is presented in this paper. The relationship between the precoder distribution and spatial correlation is analyzed at first. A closed-form expression based on overlapped isosceles triangles is proposed as an approximation of the precoder distribution. Then, the adaptive codebook design is derived with the approximate distribution to minimize quantization errors. The capacity and bit error rate performance demonstrate that the adaptive codebook with WBP outperforms the conventional fixed uniform codebook.

In this paper, we propose new cooperative precoder selection technique for interference limited MIMO networks. Our proposed method gives weighting to precoders in the codebook according to each precoder's performance priority. By applying our proposed method to precoder selection sequence, performance of entire system can be improved in terms of sumrate, stability, and feedback rate.

This paper focuses on codebook-based precoding for space-division multiple access/orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (SDMA-OFDMA) systems aiming to guarantee high throughput for their users as well as to mitigate interference to fixed satellite service (FSS). A systematic design of SDMA codebook for subband-based OFDMA is proposed, which forms multiple orthogonal beams with common spatial null in the direction of a victim FSS earth station (ES). The design enables both transmitter and receiver to independently construct identical codebook by sharing only on the direction angle of an FSS ES, which takes fewer overhead bits than Gram-Schmidt process, a general method satisfying our design criterion. A system-level throughput evaluation shows that the proposed precoding provides superior performance over existing spectrum sharing method, that is, subband deactivation. The spectrum sharing analysis shows that the proposed precoding, even with an estimation error of the direction angles of an FSS ES, causes lower interference than existing precoding, knockdown precoding.

In this paper, for spatial multiplexing with limited feedback, a precoding scheme is proposed based on the joint use of minimal instantaneous feedback and long-term feedback of a small number of bits, wherein the long-term feedback is used to convey a selected preceding matrix within a precodercodebook consisting of a number of unitary matrices, and the active column vectors of the selected unitary matrix are conveyed to the transmitter using instantaneous feedback. Focusing on the case of dual multi-input multi-output(MIMO) systems, precoder codebook design for maximizing the average throughput of a spatial multiplexing system with a zero-forcing(ZF) receiver is proposed. It is shown that the proposed scheme provides a considerable throughput enhancement over multi-mode antenna selection and multi-mode basis selection only with the additional long-yterm feedback of a small number of bits. For example, the throughput increases by 11.5 % than antenna selection and 5.1% than basis selection, respectively, when SNR=20 dB.

In this paper, we propose an efficient preceding scheme for STBC-Spatial Muiltiplexing OFDM systems. In MIMO systems, the precoder is designed on the assumption that feedback channel information is perfectly known to transmitter and receiver. However, feedback delay and link errors in real environment make the transmitter use the incorrect channel information and consequently cause the performance degradation. The proposed precoder is designed to compensate for the performance degradation by the diversity gain provided by STBC. At the transmitter, the precoder for each subcarrier is constructed by using the index of codebook, subcarrier correlation, and auto correlation of channel. From the simulation results, STBC-spatial multiplexing OFDM outperforms the preceded-spatial multiplexing OFDM at $SER=10^{-3}$ when the Doppler frequency is greater than 60Hz.

Multiple antenna transmission and reception, whose principal merits are significant increase in spectral efficiency and/or reduction in error rate, lose much of their effectiveness in high levels of interference from other cells. Incorporating the other cell interference into advanced signal processing at transmitter and receiver is one of the key challenges for cell boundary users in cellular system. Since receiver can obtain exact knowledge of interference channels more easily than transmitter, an interference-aware multiple antenna receiver that can significantly attenuate interferences is considered. Based on the receiver, codebook-based coordinated precoding schemes are proposed. According to the level of cooperation, centralized and distributed schemes are proposed. We verified by the simulation results that even the distributed schemes, which have same amount of feedback and no cooperation between cells, have performance gain compared to the conventional non-coordinated scheme.

In this paper, we propose a codebook-based interference alignment (IA) scheme in the constant multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) interference channel especially for the uplink scenario. In our proposed scheme, we assume cooperation among base stations (BSs) through reliable backhaul links so that global channel knowledge is available for all BSs, which enables BS to compute he transmit precoder and inform its quantized index to the associated user via limited rate feedback link. We present an upper bound on the rate loss of the proposed scheme and derive the scaling law of the feedback load to maintain a constant rate loss relative to IA with perfect channel knowledge. Considering the impact of overhead due to training, cooperation, and feedback, we address the effective degrees of freedom (DOF) of the proposed scheme and derive the maximization of the effective DOF. From simulation results, we verify our analysis on the scaling law to preserve the multiplexing gain and confirm that the proposed scheme is more effective than the conventional IA scheme in terms of the effective DOF.

In this paper, we propose a compressive sensing-based channel quantization feedback mechanism that is appropriate for practical massvie multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We assume that the base station (BS) has a compact uniform square array that has a highly correlated channel. To serve multiple users, the BS uses a zero-forcing precoder. Our proposed channel feedback algorithm can reduce the feedback overhead as well as a codebook search complexity. Numerical simulations confirm our analytical results.
