Abstract
We consider a precoding method in downlink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission with multiple base station (BS) cooperation where some of the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is not available at the BSs. The proposed precoding method is based on block diagonalization of the channel matrix. However, since some elements of the channel matrix are unknown, we allow a partially non-orthogonal transmission. More specifically, we allow inter-user interference to users with limited instantaneous CSI feedback from the channel where the instantaneous CSI of that user is not obtained at the BSs. The other inter-user interferences are set to zero based on the block diagonalization of the channel matrix. The proposed method efficiently uses the degree of freedom of the spatial channel compared to the case with full orthogonal transmission at the cost of increased inter-user interference to the users with limited instantaneous CSI feedback. Simulation results show that the proposed method increases the capacity for a given transmission power or decreases the transmission power for a given capacity requirement compared to the case with full orthogonal transmission.
