The current paper considers the joint precoding and transmit antenna selection to reduce hardware cost, such as radio-frequency chains, associated with antennas in the downlink of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output systems with limited feedback. The joint precoding and transmit antenna selection algorithm requires an exhaustive search of all possible combinations and permutations to find the optimum solution at the transmitter, thus resulting in extremely high computational complexity. To reduce the computational load while still maximizing channel capacity, the cross-entropy (CE) method is adopted to determine the suboptimum solution. Compared with the conventional genetic algorithm and random search method, the CE method provides better performance under the same computational complexity, as shown by the simulation results.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are a core technology designed to achieve the performance objectives defined for 5G wireless communications. They achieve high spectral efficiency, reliability, and diversity gain. However, the many radio frequency chains required in base stations equipped with a high number of transmit antennas imply high hardware costs and computational complexity. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the use of a transmit-antenna selection scheme, with which the number of required radio frequency chains in the base station can be reduced. This paper proposes two efficient transmit-antenna selection (TAS) schemes designed to consider a trade-off between performance and computational complexity in massive MIMO systems. The spectral efficiency and computational complexity of the proposed schemes are analyzed and compared with existing TAS schemes, showing that the proposed algorithms increase the TAS performance and can be used in practical systems. Additionally, the obtained results enable a better understanding of how TAS affects massive MIMO systems.

A transmit antenna selection (TxAS) aided multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system is proposed for operating in the MIMO downlink channel environments, which shows significant improvement in terms of higher data rate when compared to the conventional MU-MIMO systems operating without adopting TxAS, while maintaining low hardware costs. We opt for employing a simple yet efficient zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF) linear precoding scheme at the transmitter in order to reduce the decoding complexity when considering users’ side. Moreover, considering that users within the same cell may require various qualities of service (QoS), we further propose a novel user-oriented smart TxAS (UOSTxAS) scheme, of which the main idea is to carry out AS based on the QoS requirements of different users. At last, we implement the proposed UOSTxAS scheme in the software defined radio (SDR) MIMO communication hardware platform, which is the first prototype hardware system that runs the UOSTxAS MU-MIMO scheme. Our results show that, by employing TxAS, the proposed UOSTxAS scheme is capable of offering higher data rates for priority users, while reasonably ensuring the performance of the common users requiring lower rates both in simulation and in the implemented SDR MIMO communication platform.

Background: The paper considers the wireless system with large number of users (more than 50 users) and each user is assigned large number of antennas (around 200) at the Base Station (BS). Objective: The challenges associated with the defined system are increased power consumption and high complexity of associated circuitry. The antenna selection is introduced to combat these problems while the usage of linear precoding reduces computational complexity. The literature suggests number of antenna selection techniques based on statistical properties of signal. However, each antenna selection technique suits well to specific number of users. Methods: In this paper, the random antenna selection is compared with norm-based antenna selection. It is analysed that the random antenna selection leads to inefficient spectral efficiency if the number of users are more than 50 in Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) system. Results: The paper proposes the optimization of Energy-Efficiency (EE) with random transmit antenna selection for large number of users in MU-MIMO systems. Conclusion: Also the computation leads to optimization of number of transmit antennas at the BS for energy efficiency. The proposed algorithm results in improvement of the energy efficiency by 27% for more than 50 users.

Transmit antenna selection (TAS) is an efficient way for improving the system performance of spatial modulation (SM) systems. However, in the case of large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) configuration, the computational complexity of TAS in large-scale SM will be extremely high, which prohibits the application of TAS-SM in a real large-scale MIMO system for future 5G wireless communications. For solving this problem, in this paper, two novel low-complexity TAS schemes, named as norm-angle guided subset division (NAG-SD) and threshold-based NAG-SD ones, are proposed to offer a better tradeoff between computational complexity and system performance. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes can achieve better performance than traditional TAS schemes, while effectively reducing the computational complexity in large-scale spatial modulation systems.

Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) system improves performance as well as the capacity of the wireless system. The use of large number of antennas in a MIMO system increases the hardware complexities and also its price. To overcome this, MIMO systems that activate single transmit antenna at a time, namely transmit antenna selection (TAS) is considered in this paper. Selection combining (SC) and Maximal ratio combining (MRC) are carried out at the receiver over    fading channels. Expressions for outage probability and average bit error rate (ABER) are derived considering TAS/SC as well as TAS/MRC MIMO systems. All the derived expressions are validated by Monte-Carlo simulation results.

Though MIMO systems improve performance of a wireless communication network by the usage of multiple antennas, demand of distinct set of RF chain (i.e., electronic components required for antenna transmission and reception, in wireless communication) for all the antennas leads to an increase in complexity and cost. Antenna selection technique of MIMO has proved to be a good means to solve this issue. Antenna Selection methods find optimal number of antennas required out of the total antennas present in the MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) system. The selection of antenna can be performed at both ends of the communication network i.e., transmitter or receiver. In this paper, an overview of various Transmit Antenna Selection techniques for various MIMO systems is presented.

Abstract “Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (M-MIMO) systems specifically refers to a practical technique for sending and receiving more than one data signal simultaneously over the same radio channel by exploiting multipath propagation”. It depends on several antennas for transferring varied data streams simultaneously. With the increase in count of antennas, the energy or power utilization also gets increased. Thus, it becomes necessary to select optimal transmit antennas that exist as the great challenge in M-MIMO systems. This work introduces a new “Hybrid Sea Lion-Whale Algorithm (HS-WA)” for selecting the optimal transmit antenna by considering the multi-objectives, which increases both capacity and efficiency. The adopted scheme is the combination of both “Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Sea Lion Optimization Algorithm (SLnO)” that optimizes the antenna’s count and moreover, it finds out “which antenna to be selected”. At last, the supremacy of presented model is confirmed over existing models in terms EE and capacity analysis.
