Abstract

In this paper, the sum-rate and BER performances of MU-MIMO system employing quantized differential feedback technique are analyzed over temporrally correlated channels. Several differential codebooks are assumed in the analysis such as quasi-diagonal codebook, spherical cap codebook, and differential equal gain codebook. The simulation results indicates that the system employing quantized differential feedback technique provides significant performance improvement. The performance improved 0.6bps/Hz at least in terms of sum-rate, and 4dB power gain is provided in terms of average BER.

본 논문에서는 제한된 피드백 정보를 사용하는 MU-MIMO 하향링크 시스템에 준-대각선 및 구관 행렬, 그리고 동 이득 전송 기법을 이용한 차등 선부호화 기법을 적용하여 sum-rate 및 bit error rate 성능을 분석한다. 시뮬레이션과 성능분석을 통해 기존의 LTE 코드북보다 sum-rate 성능은 최소 0.6bps/Hz, BER 성능은 최소 4dB 개선됨을 보인다.
