CI-BLB achieves im-proved performance over the traditional CI-based symbol-level beamforming (CI-SLB) method, because of its more intelligent power allocation scheme over the considered block of symbol slots. In this paper, we design a low-complexity algorithm based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) framework, which can efficiently solve QP problems. We analyze the convergence and complexity of the proposed algorithm. Nu-merical results validate the optimality of the proposed algorithm, and further show that the proposed algorithm offers a flexible performance-complexity tradeoff by limiting the maximum num-ber of iterations, which motivates the use of CI - BLB in practical wireless systems. date: 2024 date_type: published publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/wcnc57260.2024.10570542 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2299491 doi: 10.1109/WCNC57260.2024.10570542 isbn_13: 979-8-3503-0358-2 lyricists_name: Masouros, Christos lyricists_id: CMASO14 actors_name: Masouros, Christos actors_id: CMASO14 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public pres_type: paper publication: IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference, WCNC pagerange: 1-6 event_title: 2024 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC) event_location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates event_dates: 21st-24th April 2024 book_title: Proceedings of the IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC) 2024 citation: Wang, Y; Wen, Y; Li, A; Hu, X; Masouros, C; (2024) Intelligent Block-Level Interference Exploitation Beamforming Design: An ADMM Approach.
