该文研究了下行多用户MIMO通信系统中多用户分集问题,并且提出了两种基于最大系统容量准则的多用户分组调度算法。提出了一种基于相关用户的信道向量间内积的价值因子。通过使用该价值因子作为信道容量的评价标准,有效地降低了分组调度过程的复杂度。仿真结果显示该文提出的多用户调度算法可以明显提高系统容量;且随着系统中激活用户数量的增加,系统的调度增益不断增大。
In this paper, multi-user diversity in the downlink channel of multi-user MIMO system is investigated and two multi-user scheduling algorithms are proposed which are based on the criteria of maximum system capacity. A factor based on inner products of channel vectors of relative users is used and complexity of scheduling procedure is greatly reduced. Simulation results are presented that multi-user scheduling methods enlarge system average capacity, and with the increase of the number of active users, multi-user scheduling gain grows gradually.
