In some embodiments, an apparatus of a base station in the MU-MIMO communication system may comprise: a power calculating logic to calculate a power for each user of a plurality of users communicating with the base station in the MU-MIMO system, based upon an average power and a power increment. The power calculating logic may further comprise an average power logic to calculate the average power among the plurality of users based upon a total power for the base station to communicate with the plurality of users, and a power increment logic to determine the power increment for the each user based upon at least one of a fairness algorithm and a throughput algorithm, and wherein different users of the plurality of users having different long-term signal to interference plus noise ratios (SINRs) are calculated with different powers. The apparatus may further comprise a power allocating logic to allocate the power to the each user.

In some embodiments, a method of decoding received multicarrier signals comprises deriving objective functions from a received signal matrix, minimizing the objective functions to generate decoded hard bits, and solving a set of linear equations of the objective functions to generate decoded soft bits.
Abstract:
A beam selection method in open loop MU-MIMO is disclosed, for an asymmetric antenna configuration. The proposed beam selection method employs limited feedback, as compared with single-user closed-loop MIMO and multiple-user closed-loop MIMO, in which the base station requires channel state information (CSI). The multi-user MIMO beam selection method selects the portion of beams from candidate beams for data transmission, meaning that the base station is training M beams. From this, the subscriber station selects N beams from the total M beams, with N≦M.

Abstract:
A unified open loop single-user/multiple-user multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system and method are disclosed. The system and method operate without use of channel state information feedback. Instead, the method utilizes channel quality indicator feedback to schedule users to spatial resource blocks. Both symmetric multi-user MIMO schemes (like 2×2 and 4×4) and asymmetric multi-user MIMO schemes are considered. CQI feedback and reduction proposals are also introduced. The method may be used in a proposed network topology.
