A method for user pairing and resource allocation, includes performing a multiuser multi-input-multi-output (MU-MIMO) user pairing process to maximize an objective metric without common rank restriction; performing a rank balancing process to determine a uniform transmission user rank along all allocated resource blocks for each user; and with the uniform transmission user rank fixed for all the users, determining optimal user pairing and allocation for each of the resource blocks for each user.

A method implemented in a user equipment configured to be used in a multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communications system is disclosed. In an aspect, the user equipment transmits to a base station a first channel state information (CSI) report determined according to a single-user (SU) MIMO rule and a second CSI report based on a residual error.

Methods and systems for conveying or transmitting to any given user in an OFDMA-MU-MIMO system scheduling information of other co-scheduled users to permit the user to perform error-correction on received data and/or interference reduction on its received signals. The scheduling information can include resource block assignment, modulation constellations employed, coding rates employed, power levels utilized and precoder matrix indices used. Further, the scheduling information can be conveyed in part through dedicated reference symbol layers or pilot streams. Moreover, a base station may transmit a preliminary estimate of the total number of users the base station expects to schedule, or an upper-bound on the total number of users, to the MU-MIMO users to permit the MU-MIMO users to determine preferred precoder matrix indices and indications of channel quality indices.

Methods and systems for rectifying deteriorated channel conditions on a communication link are described. In response to the detection of a link deterioration event, a cluster of beams about a currently utilized beam pair can be trialed to determine a suitable, alternate pair of beams on which to establish a communication link. In turn, in the case of a link blockage event, a set of beams having a relatively large azimuthal angle with respect to a currently utilized beam pair can be trialed to determine a suitable beam pair for further communication.
摘要:
A multi-rank beamforming (MRBF) scheme in which the downlink channel is estimated and an optimal precoding matrix to be used by the MRBF transmitter is determined accordingly. The optimal precoding matrix is selected from a codebook of matrices having a recursive structure which allows for efficient computation of the optimal precoding matrix and corresponding Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR). The codebook also enjoys a small storage footprint. Due to the computational efficiency and modest memory requirements, the optimal precoding determination can be made at user equipment (UE) and communicated to a transmitting base station over a limited uplink channel for implementation over the downlink channel.
