Abstract
This paper develops linear preceding schemes for the downlink in multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with multiple data streams per user. We extend an existing multiuser MIMO algorithm, that jointly optimizes the power allocation and the transmit and receive filters, to MIMO- OFDM systems. One extension is to solve the resulting problem of joint power allocation across OFDM subcarriers. This paper also presents efficient methods to reduce the computational load of the algorithm by interpolating the precoding and decoding matrices corresponding to different OFDM subcarriers. The simulations show that the proposed interpolation scheme outperforms previously known schemes, but requires that the precoder for each subcarrier be tailored to the interpolated receiver.
