Specifically, we design the precoded transmit signals that minimize the symbol-level transmit power subject to per-antenna time-domain PAPR constraint and CI condition, using the knowledge of both data information and channel state information (CSI), based on which a non-convex problem is established. This non-convex problem is transformed into a convex one by the vectorization and relaxation method. For the relaxed problem, we employ Lagrangian method and Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions to obtain a closed-form expression on the precoded signals as a function of the Lagrangian multipliers. Subsequently, we study the dual problem and obtain the optimal Lagrangian multipliers via the proposed alternating iterative algorithm. We further consider the practical communication scenario with imperfect CSI, where the original CI constraint is transformed into a probabilistic constraint in order to achieve robustness against statistically CSI errors. Numerical results validate that the proposed low-complexity algorithm achieves an enhanced performance over existing methods in terms of transmit power, PAPR and computation complexity, both in ideal perfect CSI and practical imperfect CSI cases. date: 2024-09 date_type: published publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/twc.2024.3392764 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2278650 doi: 10.1109/twc.2024.3392764 lyricists_name: Masouros, Christos lyricists_id: CMASO14 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications volume: 23 number: 9 pagerange: 12484 -12498 issn: 1536-1276 citation: Qin, Yuanyuan; Li, Ang; Lyu, Yuanmeng; Liao, Xuewen; Masouros, Christos; (2024) Symbol-Level Precoding for PAPR Reduction in Multi-User MISO-OFDM Systems.
