Multi-Input Multi-Output Fading Channel Equalization with Constellation Selection and Space-Time Precoders

摘要

We consider multiplexing systems in correlated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels with equal power allocated to each transmit antenna. Under several constraints, the number and subset of transmit antennas together with the transmit symbol constellations are determined assuming knowledge of the channel co rrelation matrices. The maximum outage data rate of the SCR receiver is seen to be close to the outage channel capacity. Identification of the channel matrix is of main concern in wireless multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. To maximize the SNR, the best way to utilize a MIMO system is to communicate on the top singular vectors of the channel matrix. In this paper we addresses t several issues and the problem of channel tracking and equalization for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) time-varying frequency-selective channels. These channels model the effects of inter-symbol interference (ISI), co-channel interference (CCI), and noise. Via singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis, the precoder is used to be shown to outperform the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) precoder in bit -error-rate (BER), transmission rate, and receiver implementation
