Zusammenfassung:The heterogeneous network (HetNet) is a promising technology for deploying the next generation wireless networks. The major issue concerning multi-tier architecture in HetNets is the interference between the users in femtocells and macrocells i.e. cross-tier interference. In this paper, we propose a generalized eigenvalue decomposition (GEVD) based interference alignment (IA) technique for the uplink of a HetNet under imperfect channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT). The proposed method exploits the stochastic knowledge of error in CSI mismatch to model an approximated channel. By using the approximated channel, we design a robust precoder and decoder to harvest the benefit promised by multi-tier architecture under imperfect CSIT. We perform exhaustive simulation studies to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique in terms of the achieved bit error rate (BER) and sum rate. We compared the proposed method with a prevailing method in the literature known as Max-SINR algorithm and found that it achieves better performance. Further, the proposed method can be applied to realistic scenarios where the channel state information is imperfect.
