Abstract
In downlink multiple streams multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) is used to increase spectrum efficiency (SE) due to selecting the modulation and coding rate scheme (MCS) dynamically. However, there is a gap between UE's signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and that required by the MCS. In this paper, we propose a novel power loading algorithm using the SINR gap. The algorithm converts the SINR gap into the transmit power gap among different streams. Thus BS adjusts transmit power allocation for different streams and selects higher MCS than that without adjusting power. The results demonstrate that this proposed algorithm contributes large gain of SE for single user (SU-) MIMO based on singular value decomposition (SVD) preceding.
