Title
Robust Interference Mitigation Against Channel Uncertainty for MIMO Cognitive Radios
Abstract
This paper studies robust interference mitigation against the imperfectness of channel knowledge involved in the interference link of a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) cognitive radio (CR) system that coexists with a primary radio (PR) system via opportunistic spectrum-sharing (OSS) scheme. The robust design leads to a seemingly complicated matrix-valued problem. Nevertheless, we show that it can be equivalently converted into two convex semidefinite programs (SDPs). One of them is identified as a null-forcing approach with closed-form power allocation, and the other can be reduced to a convex scalar power allocation subproblem by properly relaxing the interference constraint. Numerical results demonstrate significant performance gain of the robust design over previous nonrobust strategies.
