Multi-User Downlink Beamforming Using Uplink Downlink Duality With CEQs for Frequency Selective Channels
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High-resolution fully digital transceivers are infeasible at millimeter-wave (mmWave) due to their increased power consumption, cost, and hardware complexity. The use of low-resolution converters is one possible solution to realize fully digital architectures at mmWave. In this paper, we consider a setting in which a fully digital base station with constant envelope quantized (CEQ) digital-to-analog converters on each radio frequency chain communicates with multiple single antenna users with individual signal-to-quantization-plus-interference-plus-noise ratio (SQINR) constraints over frequency selective channels. We first establish uplink downlink duality for the system with CEQ hardware constraints and OFDM-based transmission considered in this paper. Based on the uplink downlink duality principle, we present a solution to the multi-user multi-carrier beamforming and power allocation problem that maximizes the minimum SQINR over all users and sub-carriers. We then present a per sub-carrier version of the originally proposed solution that decouples all sub-carriers of the OFDM waveform resulting in smaller sub-problems that can be solved in a parallel manner. Our numerical results based on 3GPP channel models generated from Quadriga demonstrate improvements in terms of ergodic sum rate and ergodic minimum rate over state-of-the-art linear solutions. We also show improved performance over non-linear solutions in terms of the coded bit error rate with the increased flexibility of assigning individual user SQINRs built into the proposed framework.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
