$K$-User Symmetric M$\times$N MIMO Interference Channel under Finite Precision CSIT: A GDoF perspective
نویسندگان
چکیده
Generalized Degrees of Freedom (GDoF) are characterized for the symmetric K-user Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Interference Channel (IC) under the assumption that the channel state information at the transmitters (CSIT) is limited to finite precision. In this symmetric setting, each transmitter is equipped with M antennas, each receiver is equipped with N antennas, each desired channel (i.e., a channel between a transmit antenna and a receive antenna belonging to the same user) has strength ∼ P , while each undesired channel has strength ∼ P, where P is a nominal SNR parameter. The result generalizes a previous GDoF characterization for the SISO setting (M = N = 1) and is enabled by a significant extension of the Aligned Image Sets bound that is broadly useful. GDoF per user take the form of a W -curve with respect to α for fixed values of M and N . Under finite precision CSIT, in spite of the presence of multiple antennas, all the benefits of interference alignment are lost.

Aligned Image Sets and the Generalized Degrees of Freedom of Symmetric MIMO Interference Channel with Partial CSIT
The generalized degrees of freedom (GDoF) of the two user symmetric multiple input multiple output (MIMO) interference channel (IC) are characterized as a function of the channel strength levels and the level of channel state information at the transmitters (CSIT). In this symmetric setting, each transmitter is equipped with M antennas, each receiver is equipped with N antennas, and both cross ...

We study the K = 3 user multiple input single output (MISO) broadcast channel (BC) with M = 3 antennas at the transmitter and 1 antenna at each receiver, from the generalized degrees of freedom (GDoF) perspective, under the assumption that the channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) is limited to finite precision. In particular, our goal is to identify a parameter regime where a sim...

We characterize the sum GDoF of the K user symmetric MISO BC where the direct channels have strengths ∼ SNR, cross channels have strengths ∼ SNR, and the channel estimation error terms have strengths ∼ SNR. This is a step towards the ultimate goal of unifying recent advances which focus exclusively on either the diversity of channel strengths (α) or the channel uncertainty (β) aspect, and bridg...

Extending recent findings on the two-user MISO broadcast channel (BC) with imperfect and delayed channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT), the work here explores the performance of the two user MIMO BC and the two user MIMO interference channel (MIMO IC), in the presence of feedback with evolving quality and timeliness.

A conjecture made by Lapidoth, Shamai and Wigger at Allerton 2005 (also an open problem presented at ITA 2006) states that the degrees of freedom (DoF) of a two user broadcast channel, where the transmitter is equipped with 2 antennas and each user is equipped with 1 antenna, must collapse under finite precision channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT). That this conjecture, which pr...
