Abstract

It is known that vector perturbation (VP) precoding does not apply to the case where users employ different modulations, while existing solutions for this scenario are suboptimal. In this letter, a joint vector perturbation precoding algorithm is proposed for multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) downlink system in the adaptive modulation scenario where different users apply different modulation types. Compared with conventional block diagonalized vector perturbation (BD-VP) and user grouping VP where the search dimension of the perturbation vector is reduced, the proposed algorithm keeps the search dimension unchanged by applying a simple transformation to the VP operation. Our analysis and results show that the proposed algorithm provides an applicable VP solution to the adaptive modulation scenario, with optimal VP performance.
