Abstract(in English) Recently, Muti-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) downlink system which uses multiple antennas at Base Station (BS) and accommodates multiple User Equipments (UE’s) with multiple receive antennas attracts much attention. It can achieve a high channel capacity although it requires the channel state information both at BS and each UE. There exist linear and non-linear MU-MIMO downlink schemes, but the linear scheme is considered more easily to be implemented and adjusted. Linear Block Diagonalization (BD) has been proposed in order to cancel the Inter-User Interference (IUI) completely and combined with the Eigenbeam-Space Division Multiplexing (E-SDM). In this paper, by noting that the block size of each UE channel matrix in BD becomes (number of receive antennas of each UE) × (nullity of the matrix constituted by other UE’s), we design the BD + E-SDM scheme for distributed antenna system assuming that multiple RRH’s (Remote Radio Heads) are connected to BS using RoF (Radio over Fiber). We compared the distributed deployment of transmit antennas with the centralized deployment and show the superiority of MU-MIMO downlink system with distributed transmit antennas.
