Abstract

This paper addresses advanced radio resource management (RRM) algorithms for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission schemes in downlink OFDMA systems. The analysis covers the main RRM mechanisms including MIMO rank adaptation and time-frequency packet scheduling. The UTRAN Long Term Evolution (LTE) system is used as case study. System-level performance analysis is presented for 2 times 2 and 4 times 4 spatial-multiplexing, single-user MIMO transmission schemes in typical macro- and micro-cell scenarios including the effects of limited and imperfect CQI feedback from the terminals. We show that time-frequency domain RRM schemes can be successfully adapted and optimized for operations with high-rate adaptive MIMO transmission schemes.
