Abstract

In this paper, we research proportional fairness of the optimal pair-wise semi-orthogonal user selection (SUS) algorithm used in the MU-MIMO-OFDM system compliant with IEEE 802.11ac standard. Zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF) is applied in the system as a precoding technique in order to cancel user interferences. Two different scenarios are considered: homogeneous and heterogeneous. Beside the proportional fairness, a throughput performance of the MU-MIMO-OFDM system is analyzed for both scenarios too. Simulation results show that the optimal pair-wise SUS algorithm is an excellent solution to realize the trade-off between the proportional fairness among users and the achieved system throughput.
