ZERO-FORCING LINEAR BEAMFORMING FOR COORDINATED CELLULAR NETWORKS WITH DISTRIBUTED ANTENNAS

摘要

In a distributed antenna system that includes a plurality of transmitters and a controller, a method, performed by the controller, may be characterized by performing dirty-paper coding on downlink transmissions to users based on an order of the users, calculating beamforming vectors to provide that each of the downlink transmissions associated with each of the users does not interfere with other users, and maximizing, based on the calculated beamforming vectors, a data rate subject to a power constraint of the distributed antenna system.
