 Practical Issues in Adaptive MQAM
 Update rate
 Estimation error and delay

 MIMO channel capacity
Midterm Postmortem
 Grade distribution typical
 Common Mistakes
 Prob 1(d): For outage, target SNR must be based
on Pb in AWGN and not average Pb in fading
 Prob 2(a)(ii): Instantaneous rate should not be
weighted by state probability
 2(c): Transmit power is fixed , so formula same
as capacity w/ RX CSI only (not inversion)

 2(d): Constellation size M for all channel states is


not fixed; should adapt M to SNR.

 Variable-rate variable-power MQAM
 Optimal power adaptation is water-filling
 Optimal rate adaptation is R/B=log(/k)

 Error floor from estimation error


 Estimation error at RX can cause error in absence of
noise (e.g. for MQAM)
 Estimation error at TX causes mismatch of adaptive
power and rate to actual channel
 Error floor from delay: let (t,)=(t-)/(t).
 Feedback delay causes mismatch of adaptive power
and rate to actual channel

Multiple Input Multiple
Output (MIMO)Systems
 MIMO systems have multiple (r) transmit and
receiver antennas

 With perfect channel estimates at TX and RX,


decomposes into r independent channels
 RH-fold capacity increase over SISO system
 Demodulation complexity reduction
 Can also use antennas for diversity (beamforming)
 Leads to capacity versus diversity tradeoff in MIMO
Capacity of MIMO Systems
 Depends on what is known at TX and RX and if
channel is static or fading

 For static channel with perfect channel


knowledge at TX and RX, waterfilling over space
is optimal power allocation:
 Similar idea in fading, based on short-term or long-
term power constraint

 Without channel knowledge, capacity metric is


based on an outage probability
Main Points
 Restricting constellation to a finite set has negligible
impact on adaptive MQAM

 Adaptive MQAM need not change more than every


10-100 symbol times.

 Estimation error and delay lead to irreducible error


floors in adaptive MQAM

 Multiple antennas at both TX and RX greatly


enhance capacity and reduce complexity.
 Alternatively, can be used for diversity gain
