Neural Network Based Optimization of Transmit Beamforming and RIS Coefficients Using Channel Covariances in MISO Downlink

We propose an unsupervised beamforming neural network (BNN) and a supervised reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) convolutional neural network (CNN) to optimize transmit beamforming and RIS coefficients of multi-input single-output (MISO) downlink with RIS assistance. To avoid frequent beam updates, the proposed BNN and RIS CNN are based on slow-changing channel covariances and are different from most other neural networks that utilize channel instances. Numerical simulations show that the proposed BNN with RIS CNN can achieve much higher sum rates than zeroforcing beamforming with waterfilling power allocation does, especially for systems with higher load, and reduces computation time.

Optimal Transmit Power and Channel-Information Bit Allocation With Zeroforcing Beamforming in MIMO-NOMA and MIMO-OMA Downlinks

In downlink, a base station (BS) with multiple transmit antennas applies zeroforcing beamforming to transmit to single-antenna mobile users in a cell. We propose the schemes that optimize transmit power and the number of bits for channel direction information (CDI) for all users to achieve the max-min signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) fairness. The optimal allocation can be obtained by a geometric program for both non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and orthogonal multiple access (OMA). For NOMA, 2 users with highly correlated channels are paired and share the same transmit beamforming. In some small total-CDI rate regimes, we show that NOMA can outperform OMA by as much as 3 dB. The performance gain over OMA increases when the correlation-coefficient threshold for user pairing is set higher. To reduce computational complexity, we propose to allocate transmit power and CDI rate to groups of multiple users instead of individual users. The user grouping scheme is based on K-means over the user SINR. We also propose a progressive filling scheme that performs close to the optimum, but can reduce the computation time by almost 3 orders of magnitude in some numerical examples.

On Optimizing Feedback Interval for Temporally Correlated MIMO Channels With Transmit Beamforming And Finite-Rate Feedback

A receiver with perfect channel state information (CSI) in a point-to-point multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel can compute the transmit beamforming vector that maximizes the transmission rate. For frequency-division duplex, a transmitter is not able to estimate CSI directly and has to obtain a quantized transmit beamforming vector from the receiver via a rate-limited feedback channel. We assume that time evolution of MIMO channels is modeled as a Gauss-Markov process parameterized by a temporal-correlation coefficient. Since feedback rate is usually low, we assume rank-one transmit beamforming or transmission with single data stream. For given feedback rate, we analyze the optimal feedback interval that maximizes the average received power of the systems with two transmit or two receive antennas. For other system sizes, the optimal feedback interval is approximated by maximizing the rate difference in a large system limit. Numerical results show that the large system approximation can predict the optimal interval for finite-size system quite accurately. Numerical results also show that quantizing transmit beamforming with the optimal feedback interval gives larger rate than the existing Kalman-filter scheme does by as much as 10% and than feeding back for every block does by 44% when the number of feedback bits is small.

Outage Bound for Max-Based Downlink Scheduling With Imperfect CSIT and Delay Constraint

We consider downlink max-based scheduling in which the base station and each user are equipped with a single antenna. In each time slot, the base station obtains channel gains of all users and selects the user with the largest squared channel gain. Assuming that channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT), i.e., squared channel gain, can be inaccurate, we derive lower bounds for probability of outage, which occurs when a required data rate is not satisfied under a delay constraint. The bounds are tight for Rayleigh fading and show how required rate and CSIT error affect outage performance.

On Transmit Beamforming for MISO-OFDM Channels With Finite-Rate Feedback

With finite-rate feedback, we propose two feedback methods for transmit beamforming in a point-to-point MISO-OFDM channel. For the first method, a receiver with perfect channel information, quantizes and feeds back the optimal transmit beamforming vectors of a few selected subcarriers, which are equally spaced. Based on those quantized vectors, the transmitter applies either constant, linear, or higher-order interpolation with the remaining beamforming vectors. With constant interpolation, we derive the approximate sum achievable rate and the optimal cluster size that maximizes the approximate rate. For linear interpolation, we derive a closed-form expression for the phase rotation by utilizing the correlation between OFDM subcarriers. We also propose a higher-order interpolation that requires more than two quantized vectors to interpolate transmit beamformers, and is based on existing channel estimation methods. Numerical results show that interpolation with the optimized cluster size can perform significantly better than that with an arbitrary cluster size. For the second proposed method, a channel impulse response is quantized with a uniform scalar quantizer. With channel quantization, we also derive the approximate sum achievable rate. We show that switching between the two methods for different feedback-rate requirements can perform better than the existing schemes.

Power and Bit Allocation for Wireless OFDM Channels with Finite-Rate Feedback and Subcarrier Clustering

The study investigated the allocation of transmission power and bits for a point-to-point orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing channel assuming perfect channel information at the receiver, but imperfect channel information at the transmitter. Channel information was quantized at the receiver and was sent back to the transmitter via a finite-rate feedback channel. Based on limited feedback from the receiver, the corresponding transmitter adapted the power level and/or modulation across subcarriers. To reduce the amount of feedback, subcarriers were partitioned into different clusters and an on/off threshold-based power allocation was applied to subcarrier clusters. In addition, two options were proposed to interpolate a channel frequency response from a set of quantized channel gains and apply the optimal water-filling allocation or a greedy bit allocation based on channel interpolation. Proposed schemes with finite feedback rates were shown to perform close to the optimal allocation without a feedback-rate constraint. In the numerical example, channel capacity decreased about 6% from the optimum when one bit of feedback per subcarrier was used.

Tree-Structured Random Vector Quantization for Limited-Feedback Wireless Channels

We consider the quantization of a transmit beamforming vector in multiantenna channels and of a signature vector in code division multiple access (CDMA) systems. Assuming perfect channel knowledge, the receiver selects for a transmitter the vector that maximizes the performance from a random vector quantization (RVQ) codebook, which consists of independent isotropically distributed unit-norm vectors. The quantized vector is then relayed to the transmitter via a rate-limited feedback channel. The RVQ codebook requires an exhaustive search to locate the selected entry. To reduce the search complexity, we apply generalized Lloyd or $k$-dimensional (kd)-tree algorithms to organize RVQ entries into a tree. In examples shown, the search complexity of tree-structured (TS) RVQ can be a few orders of magnitude less than that of the unstructured RVQ for the same performance. We also derive the performance approximation for TS-RVQ in a large system limit, which predicts the performance of a moderate-size system very well.
