Abstract:
To accommodate the explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), incorporating interference alignment (IA) into existing multiple access (MA) schemes is under investigation. However, when it is applied in MIMO networks to improve the system capacity, the new problem regarding information delay arises which does not meet the requirement of low-latency. Therefore, in this paper, we first propose a new metric named degree of delay (DoD) to quantify the issue of information delay. By analyzing DoD with classical transmission schemes, it can be seen that the information latency does affect the performance of the system. To cope with this issue, hybrid antenna array based partial interference elimination and retrospective interference regeneration scheme (HAA-PIE-RIR) is first proposed. It achieves optimal performance in 2-user MIMO scenarios, but suffers a performance loss in K -user MIMO scenarios. Then, the improved HAA-PIE-RIR scheme (HAA-IPIE-RIR), and HAA based cyclic interference elimination and RIR scheme (HAA-CIE-RIR) are proposed. The former achieves optimal performance in K -user MIMO scenarios, but requires heavy computational cost. The latter is a trade-off scheme considering performance and computational cost comprehensively. Overall, our proposed schemes can obtain lower DoD and higher DoF than that of traditional IA schemes.
