Abstract

In this paper, we investigate multiuser MIMO scheduling in LTE downlink cellular networks. We formulate the downlink LTE-A MIMO scheduling as a weighted sum rate maximization problem by allocating the RBs to users or user pairs subject to some constraints in LTE-A. We develop a low-complexity MU-MIMO scheduling and resource allocation algorithm and propose an adaptive switching approach between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO to improve network performance. System-level simulation results demonstrate significantly performance improvement of the proposed MU-MIMO scheduling algorithm and the adaptive switching algorithm.
