摘要

This paper investigates the multi-beam selection algorithms for transmit correlation channels by using statistical channel state information (SCSI) and instantaneous channel state information. Unlike the conventional codebook-based transmission scheme, the proposed multi-beam selection with the single channel quality indicator (CQI) feedback (MBS-SCF) algorithm determines the preferred beam vector by exploiting the SCSI and only feeds back CQI at each timeslot. The performance of the MBS-SCF algorithm is nearly the same as that of the conventional scheme. In order to further improve the average sum rate, a novel multi-beam selection with the dual CQIs feedback (MBS-DCF) algorithm is proposed, which determines dual preferred statistical eigen-directions and feeds back dual CQIs at each timeslot. The theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the MBS-DCF algorithm can increase the multiuser diversity and multiplexing gain and exhibits a higher average sum rate.
