Abstract

Channel state information (CSI) feedback is a challenging issue in frequency division duplexing (FDD) massive MIMO systems. This paper studies a cooperative feedback scheme, where the users first exchange their CSI with each other through device-to-device (D2D) communications, then compute the precoder by themselves, and feedback the precoder to the base station (BS). Analytical results are derived to show that the cooperative precoder feedback is more efficient than the CSI feedback in terms of interference mitigation. To reduce the delays for CSI exchange, we develop an adaptive CSI exchange strategy based on signal subspace projection and optimal bit partition. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed cooperative precoder feedback scheme with adaptive CSI exchange significantly outperforms the CSI feedback scheme, even under moderate delays for CSI exchange via D2D.
