Abstract
In this paper, a downlink (DL) precoding scheme is introduced for time-division-duplex (TDD) multi-cell multi-user 3D massive MIMO/full-dimension MIMO (FD-MIMO) systems. A pre-beamformer based on uplink direction-of-arrival (DoA) is incorporated with interference alignment (IA) scheme to provide more degrees of freedom for each cell. We analyze the feasible conditions of applying IA schemes and provide the corresponding precoding schemes for different inter-cell interference scenarios. Simulation results show that the introduced IA-DoA-based multi-cell multi-user precoding and power allocation scheme significantly outperform the existing IA-based precoding strategies for FD-MIMO systems.
