Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper investigates beamforming control method in the base station (BS) cooperative multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission assuming block-diagonalized unitary beamforming matrix. More specifically, we comprehensively compare the open-loop type random (opportunistic) beamforming control with the codebook-based closed-loop type beamforming control. The proportional fair (PF)-based scheduling is assumed, and the number of users, codebook size, and delay time of feedback signal from the user terminals are taken into account in the comparison. From the numerical results, the codebook-based beamforming control with large codebook size achieves higher system throughput than the random beamforming when the number of users is small and the feedback delay is short. However, we show that when the number of users is large and the feedback delay is long, the random beamforming can achieve higher system-level throughput than the codebook-based beamforming. This implies that the transmission rate control with random beamforming is more robust against the channel variation than that with codebook-based beamforming. These results suggest that the random beamforming which require lower feedback overhead than the codebook-based beamforming is a promising beamforming strategy in future radio access.
