Eigenvector decomposition (EVD) is an inevitable operation to obtain the precoders in practical massive multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Due to the large antenna size and at finite computation resources at the base station (BS), the overwhelming computation complexity of EVD is one of the key limiting factors of the system performance. To address this problem, we propose an eigenvector prediction (EGVP) method by interpolating the precoding matrix with predicted eigenvectors. The basic idea is to exploit a few historical precoders to interpolate the rest of them without EVD of the channel state information (CSI). We transform the nonlinear EVD into a linear prediction problem and prove that the prediction of the eigenvectors can be achieved with a complex exponential model. Furthermore, a channel prediction method called fast matrix pencil prediction (FMPP) is proposed to cope with the CSI delay when applying the EGVP method in mobility environments. The asymptotic analysis demonstrates how many samples are needed to achieve asymptotically error-free eigenvector predictions and channel predictions. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the spectral efficiency improvement of our scheme over the benchmarks and the robustness to different mobility scenarios.
This paper addresses the mobility problem in massive multiple-input multiple-output systems, which leads to significant performance losses in the practical deployment of the fifth generation mobile communication networks. We propose a novel channel prediction method based on multi-dimensional matrix pencil (MDMP), which estimates the path parameters by exploiting the angular-frequency-domain and angular-timedomain structures of the wideband channel. The MDMP method also entails a novel path pairing scheme to pair the delay and Doppler, based on the super-resolution property of the angle estimation. Our method is able to deal with the realistic constraint of time-varying path delays introduced by user movements, which has not been considered so far in the literature. We prove theoretically that in the scenario with time-varying path delays, the prediction error converges to zero with the increasing number of the base station (BS) antennas, providing that only two arbitrary channel samples are known. We also derive a lower-bound of the number of the BS antennas to achieve a satisfactory performance. Simulation results under the industrial channel model of 3GPP demonstrate that our proposed MDMP method approaches the performance of the stationary scenario even when the users' velocity reaches 120 km/h and the latency of the channel state information is as large as 16 ms.
Codebooks have been indispensable for wireless communication standard since the first release of the Long-Term Evolution in 2009. They offer an efficient way to acquire the channel state information (CSI) for multiple antenna systems. Nowadays, a codebook is not limited to a set of pre-defined precoders, it refers to a CSI feedback framework, which is more and more sophisticated. In this paper, we review the codebooks in 5G New Radio (NR) standards. The codebook timeline and the evolution trend are shown. Each codebook is elaborated with its motivation, the corresponding feedback mechanism, and the format of the precoding matrix indicator. Some insights are given to help grasp the underlying reasons and intuitions of these codebooks. Finally, we point out some unresolved challenges of the codebooks for future evolution of the standards. In general, this paper provides a comprehensive review of the codebooks in 5G NR and aims to help researchers understand the CSI feedback schemes from a standard and industrial perspective.
