Abstract
We consider channel state information (CSI) feedback in 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE)-Advanced context. In LTE-Advanced, switching between single user and multiuser transmission schemes is possible without higher layer signaling, which means that the feedback should support both single user and multiuser transmissions. Typically, the CSI feedback consists of a precoding matrix index (PMI) and channel quality indication(s) (CQI). For PMI feedback, we consider different PMI selection schemes and study whether there is a tradeoff between single user and multiuser specific codeword selection metrics. For multiuser CQI, we consider different CQI estimation strategies for two paired users, which is the primary case in LTE-Advanced. The schemes include single user single stream and two stream CQIs and several multiuser specific CQI estimation options. We find that estimating the multiuser CQI as an average over unitary pairs or as the minimum of the signal-to-interference and noise ratios of the unitary pairs offers a stable, well-performing options for different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranges and antenna correlation values.
