Attainable throughput of an interference-limited multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular system

Attainable throughput of an interference-limited multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular system

We investigate the high spectral efficiency capabilities of a cellular data system that combines the following: 1) multiple transmit signals, each using a separately adaptive modulation; 2) adaptive array processing at the receiver; and 3) aggressive frequency reuse (reuse in every cell). We focus on the link capacity between one user and its serving base station, for both uncoded and ideally c...

Data throughputs using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques in a noise-limited cellular environment

We present a general framework to quantify the data throughput capabilities of a wireless communication system when it combines: 1) multiple transmit signals; 2) adaptive modulation for each signal; and 3) adaptive array processing at the receiver. We assume a noise-limited environment, corresponding to either an isolated cell or a multicell system whose out-of-cell interference is small compar...

Very High Throughput (VHT) Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) Communication in 802.11ac

Special Issue: Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Communications

The idea of using multiple transmit and receive antennas in wireless communication systems is one of the most important breakthroughs in communication theory during the last decade. Popularly referred to as MIMO technology, this concept can greatly improve data throughput and link performance in wireless networks. In principle, a MIMO system can operate in, or anywhere between, one of the two p...

Othogonal Waveform Design for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Radar

An effective numerical approach is developed for orthogonal waveform design for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar. The Doppler shift tolerance is considered in the design cost function. The design results indicate that the Doppler tolerance of the designed orthogonal waveforms is markedly improved. Keywords-MIMO radar; waveform design; Doppler effect;
