Abstract:

Multicell cooperative processing (MCP) can overcome the detrimental effects of inter-cell interference (ICI). However, since mobile terminals (MTs) need to estimate and feed back channel state information (CSI) related to several cooperative base stations (BSs), reductions in CSI feedback overhead and delay are more demanding in MCP enabled networks. In this paper, a novel overlaid-pilot based CSI feedback scheme for multicell cooperative networks is proposed. MTs directly overlay the received downlink pilot data of all the cooperative BSs on the uplink pilot data and then broadcast it to the cooperative BSs. Each cooperative BS can recover multiple CSIs from the overlaid pilot by a presented overlaid-pilot based channel estimation algorithm. Because the overlaid pilot is fed back on the uplink pilot channel, no extra uplink channel is occupied and the downlink CSI feedback process is with zero-overhead regardless of the number of cooperative BSs. In addition, as it just needs one broadcast to feed back multiple CSIs to BSs, the feedback delay is decreased significantly. Numerical simulations show that the performance of the proposed CSI feedback scheme outperforms the traditional feedback scheme.
