Power Minimization for Adaptive Systems based on Quantized Channel State Information

Performance of wireless communication systems (quantified in terms of transmission rate, power e±ciency or error probability) degrades severely due to fading effects introduced by the shared air-interface. This degradation can be mitigated if channel state information (CSI) is available at the receiver and/or the transmitter side. Full CSI can be assumed when sufficient training allows for essentially perfect channel estimation, while quantized CSI can be used when only the class (cluster or region) that the channel belongs to is known. This dissertation aims at optimally designing and exploiting quantized CSI to minimize transmit-power under rate and error probability constraints. The setup comprises a wireless communication system with channel-adaptive modulation; where the receiver has available perfect CSI while the transmitter has only quantized CSI. In this context, innovative claims from a high-level vantage point pertain to novel schemes with variable complexity, under different channel types shared by single or multiple users. Simulated numerical tests corroborate the analytical claims and reveal that significant power savings result when implementing the proposed schemes. Specific contributions can be summarized as follows: (i) the quantization and adaptive transmission parameters can be obtained as the solution of a judiciously formulated constrained minimization problem; (ii) the channel quantization algorithms developed attain at least a local optimum of the objective function; (iii)the adaptive schemes reach the global optimum; (iv) the required computational complexity per channel realization for the adaptive schemes ranks from moderate to negligible; (v) the amount of feedback transmitters need from the receiver is stunningly small; and (vi) power consumed by adaptive schemes based on quantized CSI is significantly less than that required by non-adaptive alternatives, and closely approaches the power savings achieved by the benchmark perfect transmit-CSI design. These features encourage practical deployment of the proposed schemes that, with moderate computational overhead, offer a significant performance improvement. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10016/839
