Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Cellular distributed multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) is a system in which a large number of distributed antennas deployed over a service area are divided into multiple base station cells, user clusters are formed in each base station cell, and cluster-wise distributed MU-MIMO is performed in parallel. The formation of base station cells ensures system scalability, and the use of cluster-wise distributed MU-MIMO in parallel can spatially multiplex users in each cell while ensuring low signal processing computational complexity. The challenge for such a system is the mitigation of inter-cell interference and inter-cluster interference. Inter-cluster interference can be reduced by Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) pre/postcoding scheme. So far, we proposed two types of pre/postcoding schemes. One is the MMSE pre/postcoding scheme which considers the inter-cluster interference as an equivalent noise and the other is the inter-cluster interference suppressing MMSE pre/postcoding scheme which takes the instantaneous inter-cluster interference into the channel correlation matrix. In this paper, we evaluate the interference reduction effects of both postcoding schemes for the uplink transmission in a cellular distributed MU-MIMO system. The uplink user capacities achievable by both MMSE postcoding schemes are evaluated by computer simulation and are compared together with the computational complexity.
