Popis
Shrnutí:A number of important problems in engineering can be formulated as non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP). The general QCQP problem is NP-Hard. In this paper, we consider a class of non-convex QCQP problems that are expressible as the maximization of the point-wise minimum of homogeneous convex quadratics over a "simple" convex set. Existing approximation strategies for such problems are generally incapable of achieving favorable performance-complexity tradeoffs. They are either characterized by good performance but high complexity and lack of scalability, or low complexity but relatively inferior performance. This paper focuses on bridging this gap by developing high performance, low complexity successive non-smooth convex approximation algorithms for problems in this class. Exploiting the structure inherent in each subproblem, specialized first-order methods are used to efficiently compute solutions. Multicast beamforming is considered as an application example to showcase the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms, which achieve a very favorable performance-complexity tradeoff relative to the existing state of the art.
