Abstract

In this paper, we consider the user scheduling algorithm for downlink full-dimension multiple-input multiple-output (FD-MIMO) system under Rician fading channels. We assume that two-dimensional (2D) large-scale antenna array is deployed at base station (BS). An approximation of users signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and a lower bound of users average signal-to-leakage-plus-noise ratio (SLNR) are derived. Based on these, two user scheduling algorithms exploiting only statistical channel state information (CSI) are proposed. The proposed algorithms take both the achievable sum rate and fairness into account. Simulation results reveal that the proposed user scheduling algorithms can make good trade-off between the achievable rate and fairness.
