Description: MU-MIMO is widely considered a key technology
for system capacity improvement in modern
wireless networks. In contrast to
SU-MIMO, where the spatial multiplexing gain
is confined to a single user, MU-MIMO allows
multiple users to be co-scheduled on the same
time-frequency resources to exploit this gain
among two or more UE units. This is particularly
beneficial as high-rank SU-MIMO transmission
is often limited by the number of
antennas and antenna design constraints at the
user end, whereas high-rank transmission using
MU-MIMO is more feasible due to the scattered
user distribution.
It is well known that the information theoretic
optimal MU-MIMO scheme is dirty paper
coding (DPC), which unfortunately is a nonlinear/
non-causal beamforming scheme and therefore
unrealistic in real-life applications. From a
practical deployment point of view, the most
