Title
Beam-Blocked Channel Estimation for FDD Massive MIMO With Compressed Feedback.
Abstract
To fully exploit both multiplexing gain and array gain of massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), the channel state information must be obtained accurately at transmitter side (CSIT). However, conventional channel estimation solutions are not suitable for frequency-division duplexing (FDD) multiuser massive MIMO because of overwhelming pilot and feedback overhead. To reduce the pilot and feedback overhead of channel estimation in FDD systems, we propose a compressive channel estimation scheme for FDD massive MIMO systems in this paper, where the beam-blocked sparsity of massive MIMO channels in beamspace is leveraged. Particularly, we first propose a beam-blocked compressive channel estimation scheme, which can reduce the overhead for downlink training. Then, an optimal block orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm at the BS is proposed to acquire reliable CSIT from the limited number of pilots. Furthermore, an efficient algorithm for channel matrix recovery from separately quantized amplitude and phase of received signals is developed to efficiently decrease feedback load. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms conventional solutions.
