Abstract
In this paper, imperfect feedback-based linear precoding schemes are proposed for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems, where input symbol streams are encoded by using generalized-orthogonal space-time block codes. The imperfect feedback information drastically degrades the system performance. Therefore, to overcome the effect of erroneous feedback information, error-tolerant weighting (ETW) schemes are implemented by employing diagonal precoder. The communication links are assumed to be Nakagami- $m$ distributed for accurately characterizing practical wireless channels under different fading scenarios. Exact and asymptotic symbol-error-rate (SER) expressions of the considered MIMO system are derived under imperfect feedback with the help of order statistics. The most appropriate values of the transmit weights of the precoder matrix are obtained by minimizing the derived average SER over fixed and adaptive signal-to-noise ratio. Further, we study the trade-off between the proposed optimal and suboptimal feedback-based precoding schemes. Moreover, the ergodic-rate of the ETW schemes is also derived with imperfect feedback for arbitrary MIMO system by using the moment generating function approach. The simulated and analytical results show that a significant performance gain is achieved by the ETW schemes as compared to the uniform power allocation and existing precoding techniques under erroneous feedback information.
