We consider the downlink of a multiuser system equipped with multiple antennas transmitting to multiple single-antenna mobile receivers. Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is invoked to solve the constrained nonlinear optimisation problem for the minimum bit error rate (MBER) multiuser transmitter (MUT). The proposed PSO aided symbol-specific MBER-MUT and average MBER-MUT schemes provide improved performance in comparison to the conventional minimum mean-square-error MUT scheme, while imposing a reduced complexity compared to the state-of-the-art sequential quadratic programming based symbol-specific MBER-MUT and average MBER-MUT schemes, respectively.
