Opportunistic Feedback in Clustered OFDM Systems

Overview This paper proposes a random access based feedback protocol for the clustered Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) downlink, which allows users to feed back their channel information to the Base Station (BS) in a distributed fashion. The proposed protocol employs a contention channel that consists of fixed amount of system resource to carry the feedback for each cluster. Active users send a feedback message with some probability if their average channel quality on one cluster is above a threshold. The threshold and feedback probability are jointly adjusted to maximize a tight upper bound to the average sum rate of all users. The main advantage of this protocol is that it achieves multiuser diversity with only a small amount of feedback overhead.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
