Review of Last Lecture • Introduction to adaptive modulation • Variable-rate variable-power MQAM • Optimal power adaptation is water-filling • Optimal rate adaptation is R/B=log(g/gk)
Constellation Restriction M3 M(g)=g/gK* MD(g) M3 M2 M2 M1 M1 Outage 0 g0 g1=M1gK* g2 g3 g • Power adaptation: • Average rate:
Efficiency in Rayleigh Fading Spectral Efficiency (bps/Hz) Average SNR (dB)
Practical Constraints • Constellation updates: fade region duration • Estimation error • Estimation error at RX can cause error in absence of noise (e.g. for MQAM) • Estimation error at TX can be caused by estimator and/or delay in the feedback path • Causes mismatch of adaptive power and rate to actual channel • Can lead to large errors
Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)Systems • MIMO systems have multiple (r) transmit and receiver antennas • With perfect channel estimates at TX and RX, decomposes into r independent channels • RH-fold capacity increase over SISO system • Demodulation complexity reduction • Can also use antennas for diversity (beamforming) • Leads to capacity versus diversity tradeoff in MIMO
MIMO Decomposition • Decompose channel through transmit precoding (x=Vx) and receiver shaping (y=UHy) • Leads to RHmin(Mt,Mr) independent channels with gain si (ith singular value of H) and AWGN • Independent channels lead to simple capacity analysis and modulation/demodulation design ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ y=S x+n y=Hx+n H=USVH ~ ~ ~ yi=six+ni
Main Points • Discretizing the constellation size results in negligible performance loss in adaptive modulation • Constellations cannot be updated faster than 10s to 100s of symbol times: OK for most dopplers. • Estimation error/delay causes error floor • MIMO systems exploit multiple antennas at both TX and RX for capacity and/or diversity gain • With TX and RX channel knowledge, channel decomposes into independent channels
