Joint Interference and Phase Alignment among Data Streams in Multicell MIMO Broadcasting

Abstract

For the problem of channel state information (CSI) delay and error, this paper proposes a joint interference and phase alignment algorithm based on Bayesian estimation and power allocation among data streams for multicell, multiple-input multiple-output broadcast channels (MIMO-BC). Firstly, the sender obtains the best estimate of the current CSI through Bayesian estimation. Secondly, the interference suppression matrix is designed by maximizing the ratio of the desired signal power to the intercell interference plus noise ratio (SINR) in the forward link, and in the reverse communication, by maximizing the SINR design precoding. Further, the water-filling algorithm is combined to optimize power allocation among data streams. Finally, the phase alignment is used to rotate the interference between data streams into the signal space of the target receive data stream, thereby enhancing the received power of the target data stream. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has certain performance advantages over other algorithms, whether it is ideal CSI or delay and error CSI.
