Abstract
To increase the flexibility of network architecture, a mobile X-haul network (MXN) structure has been considered, in which the wireless front-haul, mid-haul, and backhaul links are integrated into a wireless X-haul link. Accordingly, the mobile station can be served by flexible transmission reception point (f-TRP) or remote radio head through the access link and the associated data should be delivered from XDU to the f-TRP through the X-haul link. Accordingly, the system throughput is determined by the minimum value of the access link capacity and the X-haul link capacity. In this paper, when millimeter-wave (mmWave) is exploited in such MXN with in-band full duplex, the optimal beamforming strategy is proposed, in which the receive beamforming for the X-haul link and the transmit beamforming for the access link are jointly designed to maximize the system throughput. Furthermore, we investigate the rate loss due to the quantization error of the channel state information at f-TRP with limited feedback, in which its upper bound is analytically derived and exploited in the determination of the number of feedback bits for a given finite rate loss.
