This work focuses on the downlink communication of a multiuser MIMO system where the base station antennas and the users receiving antennas are all active, but at each transmission, only a subset of the receive antennas is selected by the base station to receive the information symbols, and the particular chosen subset (pattern) represents part of the information conveyed to the user. In this paper we present a mathematical model for the system and develop expressions that are fairly general and adequate for its analysis. Based on these expressions we propose a procedure to optimize the choice by the ERB of the sets of antenna patterns to be used in the transmissions to the different users, aiming at the maximization of the detection signal-to-noise ratio. Performance results, with and without the optimization procedure, are presented for different scenarios.

In this correspondence, we propose a space domain index modulation (IM) scheme for the downlink of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems. Instead of the most common approach where spatial bits select active receiver antennas, in the presented scheme the spatial information is mapped onto the transmitter side. This allows IM to better exploit large dimensional antenna settings which are typically easier to deploy at the base station. In order to mitigate inter-user interference and allow single user detection, a precoder is adopted at the BS. Furthermore two alternative enhanced signal construction methods are proposed for minimizing the transmitted power or enable an implementation with a reduced number of RF chains. Simulation results for different scenarios show that the proposed approach can be an attractive alternative to conventional precoded MU-MIMO.

The power consumption of digital-to-analog converters (DACs) constitutes a significant proportion of the total power consumption in a massive multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) base station (BS). Using 1-bit DACs can significantly reduce the power consumption. This paper addresses the precoding problem for the massive narrow-band MU-MIMO downlink system equipped with 1-bit DACs at each BS. In such a system, the precoding problem plays a central role as the precoded symbols are affected by extra distortion introduced by 1-bit DACs. In this paper, we develop a highly-efficient nonlinear precoding algorithm based on the alternative direction method framework. Unlike the classic algorithms, such as the semidefinite relaxation (SDR) and squared-infinity norm Douglas-Rachford splitting (SQUID) algorithms, which solve convex relax
Physical layer security is a useful tool to prevent confidential information from wiretapping. In this paper, we consider a generalized model of conventional physical layer security, referred to as hierarchical information accessibility (HIA). A main feature of the HIA model is that a network has a hierarchy in information accessibility, wherein decoding feasibility is determined by a priority of users. Under this HIA model, we formulate a sum secrecy rate maximization problem with regard to precoding vectors. This problem is challenging since multiple non-smooth functions are involved into the secrecy rate to fulfill the HIA conditions and also the problem is non-convex. To address the challenges, we approximate the minimum function by using the LogSumExp technique, thereafter obtain the first-order optimality condition. One key observation is that the derived condition is cast as a functional eigenvalue problem, where the eigenvalue is equivalent to the approximated objective function of the formulated problem. Accordingly, we show that finding a principal eigenvector is equivalent to finding a local optimal solution. To this end, we develop a novel method called generalized power iteration for HIA (GPI-HIA). Simulations demonstrate that the GPI-HIA significantly outperforms other baseline methods in terms of the secrecy rate.
Recently, multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) systems with low-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs) has received considerable attention, owing to the capability of dramatically reducing the hardware cost. Besides, it has been shown that the use of low-resolution DACs enable great reduction in power consumption while maintain the performance loss within acceptable margin, under the assumption of perfect knowledge of channel state information (CSI). In this paper, we investigate the precoding problem for the coarsely quantized MU-MIMO system without such an assumption. The channel uncertainties are modeled to be a random matrix with finite second-order statistics. By leveraging a favorable relation between the multi-bit DACs outputs and the single-bit ones, we first reformulate the original complex precoding problem into a nonconvex binary optimization problem. Then, using the S-procedure lemma, the nonconvex problem is recast into a tractable formulation with convex constraints and finally solved by the semidefinite relaxation (SDR) method. Compared with existing representative methods, the proposed precoder is robust to various channel uncertainties and is able to support a MUMIMO system with higher-order modulations, e.g., 16QAM.
In this paper, the bit error rate (BER) performance of spatial modulation (SM) systems is investigated both theoretically and by simulation in a non-stationary Kronecker-based massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channel model in multi-user (MU) scenarios. Massive MIMO SM systems are considered in this paper using both a time-division multiple access (TDMA) scheme and a block diagonalization (BD) based precoding scheme, for different system settings. Their performance is compared with a vertical Bell labs layered space-time (V-BLAST) architecture based system and a conventional channel inversion system. It is observed that a higher cluster evolution factor can result in better BER performance of SM systems due to the low correlation among sub-channels. Compared with the BD-SM system, the SM system using the TDMA scheme obtains a better BER performance but with a much lower total system data rate. The BD-MU-SM system achieves the best trade-off between the data rate and the BER performance among all of the systems considered. When compared with the V-BLAST system and the channel inversion system, SM approaches offer advantages in performance for MU massive MIMO systems.
