Partial reciprocity-based precoding matrix prediction in FDD massive MIMO with mobility

Ziao Qin, Haifan Yin

TL;DR

This work addresses timely downlink precoding in FDD massive MIMO under mobility by proposing partial reciprocity-based, closed-form eigenvector interpolation methods. It introduces two schemes, EGVP-WCM and EGVP-CGM, to predict precoding matrices using interpolated channel weights derived from UL/DL partial reciprocity, with CGM reducing EVD complexity. Theoretical results establish a closed-form eigenvector prediction model and a correlation between wideband and Gram-based eigenvectors, while complexity analysis and simulations show substantial reductions in computation and robust performance across speeds up to 500 km/h. The proposed approach enables timely, accurate DL precoding in mobility scenarios, reducing latency and feedback burden.

Abstract

The timely precoding of frequency division duplex (FDD) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems is a substantial challenge in practice, especially in mobile environments. In order to improve the precoding performance and reduce the precoding complexity, we propose a partial reciprocity-based precoding matrix prediction scheme and further reduce its complexity by exploiting the channel gram matrix. We prove that the precoders can be predicted through a closed-form eigenvector interpolation which was based on the periodic eigenvector samples. Numerical results validate the performance improvements of our schemes over the conventional schemes from 30 km/h to 500 km/h of moving speed.
