A limited feedback scheme based on spatially correlated channels for coordinated multipoint systems
2012
High spectral efficiency can be achieved in the downlink of multi-antenna coordinated multi-point systems provided that the multiuser interference is appropriately managed at the transmitter side. For this sake, downlink channel information needs to be sent back by the users, thus reducing the rate available at the uplink channel. The amount and type of feedback information required has been extensively studied and many limited feedback schemes have been proposed lately. A common pattern to all of them is that achieving low rates of feedback information is possible at the cost of increasing complexity at the user side and, sometimes, assuming that some statistics of the channel are known. I…
Coordination in a multi-cell multi-antenna multi-user W-CDMA system: a beamforming approach
2008
The problem of designing joint power control and optimal beamforming (JPCOB) algorithms for the downlink of a coordinated multi-cell WCDMA system is considered throughout this paper. In this case, the JPCOB design is formulated as the problem of minimizing the total transmitted power in the coordinated multi-cell system, subject to a certain quality of service requirement for each user. In this paper, the performance of two JPCOB algorithms based on different beamforming approaches is compared over the coordinated multi-cell system. The first one, obtains local beamformers by means of the well-known virtual uplink-downlink duality. In contrast, the second algorithm implements multi-base bea…
Multi-user interference mitigation under limited feedback requirements for WCDMA systems with base station cooperation
2016
One of the techniques that has been recently identified for dealing with multi-user interference (MUI) in future communications systems is base station (BS) cooperation or joint processing. However, perfect MUI cancellation with this technique demands severe synchronization requirements, perfect and global channel state information (CSI), and an increased backhaul and signaling overhead. In this paper, we consider a more realistic layout with the aim of mitigating the MUI, where only local CSI is available at the BSs. Due to synchronization inaccuracies and errors in the channel estimation, the system becomes partially asynchronous. In the downlink of wideband code division multiple access …
On the feasibility of personal audio systems over a network of distributed loudspeakers
2018
Los sistemas de reproducción de audio personal se ocupan de la creación de zonas sonoras personales dentro de una habitación sin necesidad de utilizar auriculares. Estos sistemas utilizan un conjunto de altavoces y diseñan los filtros necesarios en cada altavoz con el fin de que la señal de audio deseada llegue a cada persona en la sala lo más libre de interferencias posible. Existen propuestas muy interesantes en la literatura que hacen uso de arrays circulares o lineales, pero en este trabajo estudiamos el problema considerando una red de altavoces distribuidos controlados por un conjunto de nodos acústicos, que pueden intercambiar información a través de una red. Enunciamos el modelo de …
