Description
Summary:In this paper, we investigate the combination of linear group precoding with a transmit antenna group selection (TA-GS) algorithm based on the channel capacity analysis for Massive MIMO systems. Simultaneously, we propose a low complexity linear precoding algorithm that works on the selected antennas. The proposed precoder is developed based on the conventional linear precoders in combination with the element-base lattice reduction shortest longest vector technique having low complexity. Numerical and simulation results show that the system performance significantly improves when the transmit selection technique is applied. Besides, the proposed precoder has remarkably lower computational complexity than its LC-RBD-LR-ZF counterpart. The bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed precoder can approach that of the LC-RBD-LR-ZF precoder as the number of groups increases, yet at the cost of higher detection complexity.
