Abstract
We study the degrees of freedom (DoFs) of the multiple-input multiple-output X-channel (MIMO XC) with delayed channel state information at the transmitters (delayed CSITs), assuming linear coding strategies at the transmitters. We present two results: 1) the linear sum DoF for MIMO XC with general antenna configurations and 2) the linear DoF region for MIMO XC with symmetric antennas. The converse for each result is based on developing a novel rank-ratio inequality that characterizes the maximum ratio between the dimensions of received linear subspaces at the two multiple-antenna receivers. The achievability of the linear sum DoF is based on a three-phase strategy, in which during the first two phases only the transmitter with fewer antennas exploits delayed CSIT in order to minimize the dimension of its signal at the unintended receiver. During the third phase, both transmitters use delayed CSIT to send linear combinations of past transmissions, such that each receiver receives a superposition of desired message data and known interference, thus simultaneously serving both receivers. We also derive other linear DoF outer bounds for the MIMO XC that, in addition to the outer bounds from the sum DoF converse and the proposed transmission strategy, allow us to characterize the linear DoF region for symmetric antenna configurations.
