Performance Analysis of Multiuser Transmission with Adaptive Antenna Arrays Using Spatial Classes
Zheng Jiang, Yanyan Liao, Yan Zhang, Dacheng Yang, Xin Zhang · 2007
CDMA system capacity is interference limited. The multiuser transmission (MUT) with adaptive antenna arrays for the downlink direction is considered to increase system capacity and to eliminate the multiple-access interference (MAI) and the inter-symbol interference (ISI) of the CDMA system. In this paper, the angular gain of the spatial filter is modeled by a piece-line function to analysis the interference difference between the in-beam users and the out-beam users. Based on this analysis, a lower complexity MUT scheme using spatial classes is proposed for avoiding MUT computation complexity, which can achieve the nearly same performance with the conventional MUT scheme. The bit-error probability approximation of this MUT scheme is also analyzed as well. The simulation result is used to confirm the availability of this lower complexity MUT scheme.
