Abstract
This paper investigates the performance of multi-user transmitter preprocessing (MUTP) based on singular value decomposition (SVD) technique for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) aided space division multiple access (SDMA) system over correlated and uncorrelated frequency-selective channels with two power allocation regimes, namely ‘water-filling’ and equal power for downlink (DL) communications. Specifically, we study the effects of delay spread distribution of vehicular channel model pertaining to Long Term Evolution (LTE). In multi-user MIMO downlink (DL) communications, users conflict multi-user interference (MUI) as well as multi-stream interference (MSI) which can severely degrade the achievable performance. It is demonstrated with the aid of simulation results that MUTP can yield better achievable bit error rate (BER) by mitigating MUI and MSI and can also obviate the need for employing complex multiuser detectors (MUDs) at the mobile stations (MSs). Further, our simulation study shows that invoking the ‘water-filling’ based power allocation regime results in better achievable capacity.
