Abstract
Multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) is a technique that achieves significant communication performance by allowing multiple antennas to simultaneously communicate. However, the achievable throughput highly depends on the channel state of the antennas which are transmitting concurrently. The target of this thesis is to improve the system throughput in interference-cancellation-based MU-MIMO by our proposed transmit antenna selection strategy. The whole proposed scheme consists of two procedures—antenna extraction procedure (based on the anisotropic orthogonal Procrustes analysis) and antenna ordering procedure. Simulation results indicate that our proposed scheme improves system throughput and that the performance of our proposed strategy is excellent in comparison with other schemes.
