Abstract

In this paper, we propose a systematic design framework to deal with the problem of limited CSIT feedback for MIMO-OFDM systems with correlated subcarriers. Based on the framework, we obtain the optimal transmission and CSI feedback strategies given the limited CSI feedback constraint. We propose a MIMO-OFDM design with combined adaptive power control and beam-forming framework for optimizing MIMO-OFDM link capacity with limited feedback in frequency selective fading channels. We derive a computationally efficient algorithm which exploits subcarrier correlation to search for the design of the optimal transmission and feedback strategy. We found that with a small number of bits for CSIT feedback, there is already significant capacity gain in the MIMO-OFDM systems
