MIMO-OFDM Wireless Channel Prediction by
Exploiting Spatial-Temporal Correlation

Abstract— MIMO-OFDM Wireless Channel Prediction by
Exploiting Spatial-Temporal Correlation. Channel prediction is an appealing technique to mitigate the performance degradation due to the inevitable feedback delay of the channel state information (CSI) in modern wireless systems. We first propose a general MIMO-OFDM channel prediction framework, which exploits both the spatial and temporal correlations among antennas. Then we derive two predictors which select data for auto-regressive (AR) predictors in different ways based on the proposed framework. The first predictor chooses the data set via minimizing the mean square error (MSE) of prediction model. The second predictor chooses the data in a heuristic way, which aims to reduce the computational complexity. Our algorithms can be < Final Year Projects 2016 > applied to improve the precoding performance in multi-user MIMO-OFDM systems. Simulation results show that the proposed methods can overcome the feedback delay effectively, even when the channel changes rapidly.
