Abstract

In this letter, we propose a novel constant envelope precoding (CEP) design for multi-user multi-input single-output (MU-MISO) downlink, where we exploit the extra degrees of freedom (DoFs) by allowing individual rotation and scaling for each constellation point. By jointly optimizing the transmitting signal matrix and the complex scaling factors, the signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) at the receiver is maximized. The formulated optimization problem is divided into two sub-problems and solved by the alternating optimization approach. We further propose a simplified gradient descent algorithm and extend our algorithm to frame-level precoding design. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms outperform the existing CEP algorithms in terms of both symbol error rate (SER) and computational complexity.
