Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus and method for beam based pre-processing in a transmitting device in a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system. The transmitting device further comprises a transmission and receiver unit (TRX) array and a digital precoding module. The apparatus is configured to map a plurality of TRXs of the TRX array to a plurality of transmit ports of the digital precoding module according to a precoding matrix, wherein the number of transmit ports is less than the number of the plurality of TRXs. The precoding matrix is characterized by determining a channel covariance matrix for a plurality of receiving devices based on the channel information between the plurality of receiving devices and the transmitting device, performing an eigen decomposition operation on the channel covariance matrix to derive an eigenvector matrix, and selecting multiple eigenvectors from the eigenvector matrix as column vectors of the precoding matrix.

Description

technical field [0001] The non-limiting and exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to precoding solutions for multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems, and in particular to beam-based precoding solutions in MU-MIMO systems. Apparatus and method for processing precoding. Background technique [0002] Massive MIMO technology has been identified as one of the key technologies for 5G New Radio (NR) systems. Massive MIMO technology meets the ever-increasing performance requirements of 5G NR, but a large number of antenna elements (AE) or transceiver units (TRX) deployed in massive MIMO systems (such as MU-MIMO systems) inevitably bring huge baseband processing Complexity, hardware implementation cost, channel measurement and feedback signaling overhead, etc. How to effectively solve these problems is the key to successfully guarantee the application of massive MIMO. [0003] Hybrid precoding is a low-cost high-capacity solution for ...
