Abstract
To reduce the performance deterioration induced by imperfect channel state information (CSI) in correlated multiple input multiple output(MIMO) downlink, the linear transmit/receive filters should be optimized to be robust to imperfect CSI. A sub-optimization algorithm based on minimizing sum MSE conditional on available imperfect CSI estimates subject to a per-user power constraint is proposed. The algorithm adapts the existing MMSE algorithm from uncorrelated single-user MIMO system with perfect CSI to correlated MIMO downlink with imperfect CSI. Simulation shows that the suboptimal algorithm can effectively mitigate the performance loss induced by imperfect CSI and has a good convergence performance. In addition, the effect of spatial correlation on the performance of the proposed algorithm is also simulated.
