Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the downlink transmission, especially the user scheduling algorithm for single-cell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system under correlated Rician fading channels. Under the assumption of only statistical channel state information (CSI) at the base station (BS), the statistical beamforming transmission is derived by maximizing the lower bound of the average signal-to-leakage-plus-noise ratio (\(\text {SLNR}\)). Based on this beamforming transmission algorithm, three user scheduling algorithms are proposed exploiting only statistical CSI: (1) maximum SLNR: schedule the user with the maximum SLNR; (2) most dissimilar: schedule the user that is most dissimilar to the already selected users; (3) modified-treating interference as noise (TIN): treat the inter-user interference as uncorrelated noise to each user’s useful signal and schedule the user with the largest signal-to-noise factor. Simulation results show that the proposed user scheduling algorithms perform well in achieving considerable sum rate.
