Abstract:
A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for scheduling and MU-MIMO transmission based on outdated channel state information. In one embodiment, the multi-user (MU)-MIMO wireless communication system has a multi-antenna transmitter and L user terminals, and the method comprises scheduling a pair of user packets for a round-2 transmission to form one MAT session using outdated channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT), including a first packet destined for a first user terminal and a second packet destined for a second user terminal, based on knowledge of user channels from transmissions to some or all L user terminals into and based on a utility function, combining eavesdropped observations from two of the plurality of round-1 transmissions, the eavesdropped observations including information indicative of round-1 eavesdropped channels feedback from the first and second user terminals, and transmitting the combined observations of the pair of user packets as part of the round-2 transmission.
