Exploiting long-term statistics in spatially correlated multi-user MIMO systems with quantized channel norm feedback

• In wireless multiple antenna and multi-user systems, the spatial dimensions may be exploited to increase the performance by means of antenna gain, spatial diversity, and multi-user diversity. A limiting factor in such systems is the channel information required by the transmitter to control the intra-cell interference. Herein, the properties of spatially correlated channels with long-term statistical information at the transmitter and fixed-rate feedback of the quantized Euclidean channel norm are analyzed using a spectral subspace decomposition framework. A spatial division multiple access scheme is proposed with interference suppression at the receiver and joint scheduling and zero-forcing beamforming at the transmitter. Closed-form expressions for first and second order moments of the feedback conditional channel statistics are derived. It is shown that only a few bits of feedback are required to achieve reliable rate estimation and weighted sum-rate maximization.
