In this paper, we present a new scheduling scheme for MIMO OFDM Multiuser Diversity System. This scheduling scheme maximizes the system throughput, and at the same time fairly shares the resources based on the feedback information from the receivers and the queue information. To show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, we evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm as compared to K&H and RR algorithms.

In this paper, we propose the linear interpolation-based BD (Block Diagonalization) precoding approximation algorithm for low complexity in downlink multiuser MIMO-OFDM (Multiple-input Multiple-output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) systems. In the case of applying the general BD precoding algorithm to multiuser MIMO-OFDM systems, the computational complexity increases in proportional to the number of subcarriers. The proposed interpolation-based BD precoding approximation algorithm can be achieved similar SER performance with general BD algorithm and can decrease the computational complexity. It is proved that proposed algorithm can achieve the significantly decreased computational complexity by computer simulation.

In this paper, we introduce the combination of OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) and MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology, and explain that this combination seems to be very preferable when designing very high-rate wireless mobile systems. The application of OFDM, with the block diagrams of an OFDM modulator and demodulator and a MIMO-OFDM system, are described. The several diversities are studied at the receiver, analyzed the performances of diversity in OFDM-MIMO system and simulated results.

This paper investigates the use of the inverse-free sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) approach for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based multiuser massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The Bayesian inference method employs a truncated Gaussian mixture prior for the sought-after low-PAPR signal. To learn the prior signal, associated hyperparameters and underlying statistical parameters, we use the variational expectation-maximization (EM) iterative algorithm. The matrix inversion involved in the expectation step (E-step) is averted by invoking a relaxed evidence lower bound (relaxed-ELBO). The resulting inverse-free SBL algorithm has a much lower complexity than the standard SBL algorithm. Numerical experiments confirm the substantial improvement over existing methods in terms of PAPR reduction for different MIMO configurations.

Resource allocation plays a crucial role in multiuser multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems to improve overall system performance. While previously proposed resource allocation algorithms are mainly designed from the point of view of the information-theoretic, we formulate the resource allocation problem as an average bit error rate (BER) minimization problem subject to a total power constraint when considering employing realistic MIMO detection techniques. Subsequently, we derive the optimal subcarrier and power allocation algorithms for three types of well-known MIMO detectors, including the maximum likelihood (ML) detector, linear detectors, and successive interference cancellation (SIC) detectors. To reduce the complexity, we also propose a two-step suboptimal algorithm that separates subcarrier and power allocation for each detector. We also analyze the diversity gain of the proposed suboptimal algorithms for various MIMO detectors. Simulation results confirm that the proposed suboptimal algorithm for each detector can achieve a comparable performance with the optimal allocation with a much lower complexity. Moreover, it is shown that the suboptimal algorithms perform better than the conventional algorithms that are known in the literature.

In this paper, the new technique combining beamforming with space-time coding is proposed for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system with multi-input multi-output(MIMO). When MIMO-OFDM system is employing Nt(the number of transmitterantenna) beamfomers and one S-T decoder at Nr receiver antennas, Nt signals removed CCI are outputted at the beamformer and then diversity gain can be got through space-time decoding. As the proposed technique can reduce cochannel interference and get diversity gain in the multi-user environment, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement and convergence behavior of the proposed approach are investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDM system in the multi-user environment.

The use of space-division multiple access(SDMA) in the downlink of multiuser multi-input/multi-output(MIMO) wireless transmission systems can provide substantial gains in system throughput. When the channel state information(CSI) is available at the transmitter, a considerable performance improvement can be attained by adapting the transmission rates to the reported CSI. In addition, to combat frequency selective fadings in wideband wireless channels, bit-interleaved coded OFDM(BIC-OFDM) modulation schemes are employed to provide reliable packet delivery by utilizing frequency diversity through channel coding. In this paper, we propose an adaptive modulation and coding(AMC) scheme combined with an opportunistic scheduling technique for the MIMO BIC-OFDM with bandwidth-limited feedback channels. The proposed scheme enhances the link performance by exploiting both the frequency diversity and the multiuser diversity. To reduce the feedback information, the proposed AMC scheme employs rate adaptation methods based on an OFDM symbol rather than on the whole subchannels. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme exhibits a substantial performance gain with a reasonable complexity over single antenna systems.

In this paper, a low complexity subcarrier allocation scheme is proposed for multiuser MIMO-OFDM systems with zero-forcing beamformer (ZFBF) so that the total transmit power can be minimized satisfying given target data rate. Since the optimal method requires very high computational complexity, we propose a low complextiy suboptimal method. Using the fact that the effective channel gain is proportional to the orthogonallity of channels of multiplexed users, a user set with the highest orthogonality of channel among users is assigned to each subcarrier in order to minimize required transmit power. The numerical results show that the proposed suboptimal method can reduce computational complexity with little performance loss.

This letter addresses the superimposed pilot aided multiuser channel estimation for the uplinks of multi-input multi-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems. To mitigate the embedded-data effects on the performance of channel estimation, a novel combining algorithm is proposed. Optimal pilot symbols are developed with respect to the least square channel estimate's mean square error. The averaged sum-capacity lower bound is derived and simulated. Simulation results show that on a low signal-to-noise ratio regime, our proposed scheme achieves better performance and higher capacity than the conventional pilot aided approach.
