Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In a downlink multiuser MIMO-OFDM system, a transmitter usually employs linear precoding for reducing cochannel interference among users. However, channel state information(CSI)that is fed back from receivers to the transmitter includes estimation and quantization errors. This report proposes a precoding scheme robust to such imperfect CSI in the downlink multiuser MIMO-OFDM system. Considering that the receivers perform the maximum likelihood detection, the proposed precoding scheme estimates the precoding matrix that can minimize the total bit error rate(BER)of the mobile stations, and is referred to as the minimum average BER(MABER)precoding. As its cost function, an upper bound of the average BER is derived from the Chernoff bound of the pairwise error probability(PEP)and is averaged with respect to CSI errors. To obtain the precoding matrix that can minimize such a cost function under a constraint of transmitted power, the MABER precoding performs iterative estimation by the steepest descent algorithm. The initial guess is set to the precoding matrix of zero-forcing(ZF). When the numbers of transmit antennas, receivers, and receive antennas per receiver are set to 2, 2, and 1, respectively, computer simulations demonstrate that the MABER precoder is superior in BER to the conventional ZF precoder under a frequency-selective fading condition.
