简介:在这篇文章,一个Grassmannianprecoding多用户多重输入多重产量(MU-MIMO)为downlink传播的计划被建议。建议MU-MIMO计划将表现安排并且precoding同时在库驻扎,增加获得多用户差异获得和precoding,最大化系统能力。precoding方法与Grassmannianprecoding有关,它扩大点对点的单个用户的Grassmannianprecoding到point-to-multipoint多用户Grassmannianprecoding。它比单身的用户MIMO(SU-MIMO)系统提供进一步重要的系统能力改进并且也超过块diagonalization(BD)在一样的模拟环境下面的算法。
