| Abstract | Transmit antenna selection in spatially multiplexed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems is a low complexity low-rate feedback technique, which involves transmission of a reduced number of streams from the maximum possible to improve the error rate performance of linear receivers. It has been shown to be effective in enhancing the performance of single-user interference-free point-to-point MIMO systems. However, performance of transmit antenna selection techniques in interference-limited environments and over frequency selective channels is less well understood. In this paper, we investigate the performance of transmit antenna selection in spatially multiplexed MIMO systems in the presence of co-channel interference. We propose a transmission technique for the downlink of a cellular MIMO system that employs transmit antenna selection to minimize the effect of co-channel interference from surrounding cells. Several transmit antenna selection algorithms are proposed and their performance is evaluated in both frequency flat and frequency selective channels. Various antenna selection algorithms proposed in the literature for single user MIMO links are extended to a cellular scenario, where each user experiences co-channel interference from the other cells (intercell interference) in the system. For frequency selective channels, we consider orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with MIMO. We propose a selection algorithm that maximizes the average output SINR over all subcarriers. A method to quantify selection gain in frequency selective channel is discussed. The effect of delay spread on the selection gain is studied by simulating practical fading environments with different delay spreads. The effect of the variable signal constellation sizes and the number of transmitted streams on the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed system is also investigated in conjunction with the transmit antenna selection. Simulation results show that for low to moderate interference power, significant improvement in the system performance is achievable with the use of transmit antenna selection algorithms. Even though the gain due to selection in frequency selective channels is reduced compared to that in flat fading channels due to the inherent frequency diversity, the performance improvement is significant when the system is interference limited. The performance improvement due to reduced number of transmit streams at larger signal constellation sizes is found to be more significant in spatially correlated scenarios, and the gain due to selection is found to be reduced with the increased delay spread. It is found that employing transmit antenna selection algorithms in conjunction with adaptation of the number of transmitted streams and the signal constellation sizes can significantly improve the performance of MIMO systems with co-channel interference. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
