This dissertation is devoted to the analysis of fairness at the physical layer in multi-antenna
multi-user communications, which implies a new view on traditional techniques. However …

This paper provides useful insights into the practical design of bit allocation algorithms in
multiantenna multiuser orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. With …

This paper addresses the problem of the spatial scheduling of users in a cell for
simultaneous downlink transmission from a base statimultiple antennas on (BS) having …

Optimizing a communication of a Q-antenna access point (AP) with K single antenna
terminals is not straightforward. Since a global optimization might not be solvable in real …

This paper deals with practical multiantenna multiuser OFDM systems. With the additional
degrees of freedom of multiple antennas and multiple subcarriers, the performance might be …

In a multi-antenna broadcast channel, the access point (AP) has several alternatives for
distributing the scarce resources among the users. When realistic conditions are taken into …

In this paper, we investigate the downlink scheduling and rate adaptation design in
multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems with imperfect channel state …

A resource allocation policy using transmit Beam-forming is proposed for the downlink of
multiuser systems. Users to be selected for transmission in a given time slot are examined …
