Linear transmitter precoding design for downlink of multiuser MIMO systems

Presented is the design of a set of linear transmitter precoding vectors for the downlink of a multiuser MIMO system, using the maximum signal-to-jamming and noise ratio for each user criterion, subject to a transmit power constraint. The proposed scheme does not impose any restrictions on the number of transmit antennas as do many conventional methods. Simulation results have shown the superiority of the proposed scheme compared to the conventional transmitter precoding schemes.
