Abstract

Eigen-beamforming technique is introduced in two typical multi-antenna systems: space-time block coding and VBALST. When the channel covariance information is known by the transmitter, optimal power allocation algorithm for eigen-beamforming is proposed based on minimizing the transmission errors. Also, it is indicated in this paper that this algorithm can be simplified when the channel is independent-identically distributed (I.I.D.) channel. By simulation and analysis, eigen-beamforming can greatly improve the performance of multi-antenna system when this power allocation algorithm is adopted.
