Abstract

This paper considers low complexity transmission for MIMO bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) in spatially-correlated Rayleigh channels. We consider both statistical beam-forming (SB) and spatial-multiplexing with a zero-forcing (ZF) receiver. We derive tight closed-form bit error rate (BER) expressions based on a saddlepoint approximation. We then propose a practical adaptive algorithm which selects, based on the analytical results, the combination of code-rate, modulation format, and MIMO transmission scheme (SB or ZF) that maximizes throughput whilst maintaining a pre-defined BER.
