Title
On The Optimal Receive Soft Antenna Selection For Reliable Communications In Mimo Interference Channels
Abstract
A Soft Antenna Selection (SAS) method is basically implemented by a Linear Network (LN) which is located in RF domain of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems. In this paper, we find the optimum receiver SAS structure which maximizes the Signal to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) gain for the diversity transmission in an interference channel. The optimization is applied for two practical cases of transmitters either with or without Channel State Information. A two-Dimensional (2D) directive model is employed to realize the interference effect. A Rician channel model is used for computer simulation. The simulation results show the optimum SAS achieving the performance of the full-complexity MIMO, i.e. a MIMO system with the same number of antenna terminals and RF chains.
