Minimal mean‐square error for 3D MIMO beamforming weighting

Optimum beamforming for MIMO multicasting

This paper investigates the transmit (Tx) beamforming design to maximize the throughput of a multiple-input multiple-output multicast channel, where common information is sent from the base station to K users simultaneously. This so-called max-min fair beamforming problem is known to be NP-hard. When the base station is equipped with two Tx antennas, we prove that the original complex-valued be...

Optimal RF Beamforming for MIMO Cognitive Networks

Secondary receivers in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Cognitive Radio (CR) networks combat interference from primary transmitters while equipped with whitening filters. However, when the MIMO secondary users are employing Radio Frequency (RF) beam-forming networks at the transmitter/ receiver front ends to improve the MIMO transmission performance, the whitening filters cannot perform in...

Robust adaptive beamforming for MIMO monopulse radar

Researchers have recently proposed a widely separated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar using monopulse angle estimation techniques for target tracking. The widely separated antennas provide improved tracking performance by mitigating complex target radar cross-section fades and angle scintillation. An adaptive array is necessary in this paradigm because the direct path from any trans...

Channel Estimation for MIMO OFDM beamforming Systems

Transmit beamforming with receive combining is a simple method for exploiting the significant diversity provided by multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, and the use of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) enables low complexity implementation of this scheme over frequency selective MIMO channels. A major challenge to MIMO-OFDM systems is how to obtain the channel state in...
