Abstract

In this paper, the performance of vector precoding in multiple input multiple output broadcast channels (MIMO BC) is investigated and compared with other channel decomposition techniques utilized for implementing zero forcing (ZF) preceding. It is a known result that ZF precoding requires pseudo inversion of the channel matrix, where this operation is only optimum when the transmitter power is unconstrained. The problem when the transmitter is subject to average or maximum power constraints is well known, where results published have indicated that ZF precoding approaches the maximum capacity bound if the dimensionality of the system is greater than the number of transmitter antennas. A vector precoding technique for MIMO BC channels is investigated in this paper where pseudo inversion is circumvented by employing joint co-operation between transmitter and receiver for all users. This technique adopts a time scheduling approach to service the users which facilitates decentralized multi-user detection at the receiver. This approach yields an improvement to the bit error rate probability by approximately an order of magnitude as compared to the ZF approach utilizing other channel decomposition techniques. The scheme also enables an increase in the capacity of the MIMO BC, with less computational complexity as compared to the techniques employing Moore-Penrose pseudo inverse.
