Quantized Multi-Mode Precoding for Spatial Multiplexing MIMO-OFDM Systems
Overview Spatial multiplexing with multi-mode precoding can achieve both high capacity and high reliability in Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. Multimode precoding uses linear transmit precoding but adapts the number of transmit streams or modes according to the channel conditions. Multi-mode precoding typically requires complete knowledge of the transmit precoding matrices for each subcarrier at the transmitter. This paper proposes to reduce the feedback requirements by sending back the quantized precoding matrices of a fraction of the subcarriers and obtaining the other precoders using interpolation. Two algorithms are proposed for the interpolation of unitary matrices. Bit error rates simulations demonstrate the performance improvements of the proposed algorithms as a function of the feedback rate.
