Finite blocklength feedback approach for multi-antenna wireless channels.

Abstract

Ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) is a key technology in future wireless communications, and finite blocklength (FBL) coding is the core of the URLLC. In this paper, FBL coding schemes for the wireless multi-antenna channels are proposed, which are based on the classical Schalkwijk-Kailath scheme for the point-to-point additive white Gaussian noise channel with noiseless feedback. Simulation examples show that the proposed feedback-based schemes almost approach the corresponding channel capacities.
