Abstract EN
Other cell interference (OCI) degrades the achievable capacity of downlink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems seriously.
Among OCI mitigation schemes, methods that sacrifice ξ degrees of freedom to nullify the OCI have been proven to be helpful to improve the cell edge throughput.
However, since interference nulling schemes can only improve the signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) of ξ users, they are not optimal in terms of average cell throughput, especially for low to medium OCI levels.
We explore the question whether it is better to improve the SINR of every user in other cells rather than benefit ξ users.
An altruistic precoding method to minimize the sum of generated interference for all of the other cell users is proposed with ξ degrees of freedom being sacrificed.
With the altruistic precoding method, we deduce the lower bound on the capacity and solve the multicell user selection problem with a local optimal solution in which only eigenvalues of interfering channels are needed to be shared.
Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the existing algorithms at any OCI level.
Furthermore, we also analyze the best choice of degrees of freedom used to mitigate OCI through simulation.
