ROBUST RATE, POWER AND PRECODER ADAPTATION FOR SLOW FADING MIMO CHANNELS WITH NOISY LIMITED FEEDBACK

摘要

System and methodologies are provided herein for rate, power and precoder adaptation for slow fading MIMO communication channels with noisy limited feedback. To optimize a rate of successful information delivery from a wireless transmitter to a wireless receiver and to provide robustness to channel noise, a joint design and optimization technique is utilized to provide optimal power, rate, and precoding adaptation policies for use by a wireless transmitter and an optimal feedback scheme and index assignment mapping for use by a wireless receiver. Additionally, various optimization and design techniques described herein are performed using a low-complexity online adaptation coupled with an offline optimization design.
