In a three-dimensional (3D) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, the base station can use both horizontal and vertical spaces, transmitting spatial beam to users more accurately. This system has caught the attention of researchers in recent years. The existing research on the 3D MIMO technology is based on the assumption that the base station can acquire the ideal channel state information (CSI), which is not actually the case in real systems. Therefore, this paper introduces a limited feedback transmission scheme based on mobile station (MS) compensation in the 3D MIMO system. In this scheme, the vertical antenna gain of the 3D MIMO system compensation is assigned to the MS. Two CSI-RS ports are configured at the base station, omnidirectional CSI-RS port and partial CSI-RS port. The MS can calculate the horizontal CSI and the vertical beam gain according to omnidirectional CSI-RS port and partial CSI-RS port, respectively. Partial CSI-RS resources are used to calculate the channel after being weighted by the vertical beam vector, MS selects the optimal vertical precoding vector. Simulations show that compared with the reference strategy, the transmission scheme with limited feedback based on the MS compensation proposed in this article has more advantages. The average spectral efficiency of the system and the cell edge spectral efficiency can be greatly improved.
