Title
Sum Rate Maximization for Frame-Based Multigateway Satellite Systems with Feeder Link Interference
Abstract
This paper studies the multicast precoding problem in frame-based multigateway multibeam satellite communications with feeder link interference. We formulate a sum rate maximization problem that incorporates the minimum signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) requirement for each user, the sum power constraint at each gateway as well as the per feed power constraints at the satellite. We propose two algorithms to solve the formulated problem. In the first algorithm, by employing the successive convex approximation (SCA) approach, we iteratively approximate the original nonconvex problem to a second-order cone program (SOCP) which can be solved by modern solvers efficiently. For the second, we propose a modified joint power control and beamforming algorithm which computes QoS beamforming and geometric programming (GP) based power allocation iteratively. Compared to the traditional method [5] which uses a subgradient and projection based approach for the power control, the GP based solution is more implementation friendly and practical appealing which also achieves a slightly better sum rate performance. Finally, numerical results are presented to validate the efficiency of the proposed schemes.
