This paper proposes a new codebook structure called Kronecker-product based codebook (KPC), where each codeword is the Kronecker product of two oversampled DFT codewords in both the horizontal and vertical domains. The KPC is especially suitable for the three-dimensional (3D) multiuser multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) systems. Besides, channel state information feedback based on the best companion cluster scheme is investigated. Since all codewords have been grouped into several clusters, each user feeds back its best precoding matrix index, best interference cluster index and channel quality information, then the BS pairs and schedules users according to the received feedback. Different codewords clustering methods affect the performance of the limited feedback schemes. We proposes two kinds of codewords clustering methods based on 3D beam patterns, including both the symmetric and …
