Abstract
In this letter, we investigate a robust beamforming problem for localization-aided millimeter wave (mmWave) communication systems. To handle this problem, we propose a novel restriction and relaxation (R&R) method. The proposed R&R method aims at minimizing the total transmit power while the positioning error follows a Gaussian distribution. Specifically, in the restriction phase of R&R, the probabilistic constraint is transformed into the deterministic form by using the Bernstein-type inequality. In the relaxation phase of R&R, the non-convex optimization problem is reformulated into a convex semidefinite program (SDP) by using semidefinite relaxation (SDR) and first-order Taylor expansion methods. To the best of our knowledge, we first consider the impact of the distribution of the positioning error on the channel state information (CSI), which further influences the data rate. Numerical results present the trade-off of the beamforming between the communication and positioning.
