Identification Over Compound Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Broadcast Channels

On the capacity of multiple input multiple output broadcast channels

Abstract— We consider a multi-user multiple input multiple output (MIMO) Gaussian broadcast channel (BC), where the transmitter and receivers have multiple antennas. Since the MIMO broadcast channel is in general a non-degraded broadcast channel, its capacity region remains an unsolved problem. In this paper, we establish a duality between what is termed the “dirty paper” achievable region (the...

Modeling of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Radio Propagation Channels

Generalized Mercury/Waterfilling for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Channels

We determine the power-allocation policy that maximizes the mutual information for general multiple-input multipleoutput Gaussian channels with arbitrary input distributions, by capitalizing on the recent relationship between mutual information and minimum mean squared error (MMSE). In this context, we put forth a novel interpretation of the optimal powerallocation procedure that generalizes th...

Equalization and Decoding for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Wireless Channels

We consider multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems that employ multiple transmit and receive antennas to increase the data rate and achieve diversity in fading multipath channels. We begin by focusing on an uncoded system and define optimal and suboptimal receiver structures for this system in Rayleigh fading with and without intersymbol interference. Next, we cons...

Efficient Reliable Data Broadcast over Multiple Channels

The broadcast disk is a useful technique for distributing data to many clients simultaneously. A central server fixes a set of data and a schedule for sending it, and then repeatedly sends the data according to the schedule. Clients listen for data until it is broadcast. We look at the problem of scheduling for two separate channels, where each can have a different broadcast schedule. Our metri...
