Robust Transmit Eigen Beamforming Based on Imperfect Channel State Information

Transmit beamforming is a powerful technique for enhancing the performance and increasing the throughput of wireless communication systems that employ multiple antennas at the transmitter. A major drawback of most existing transmit beamforming techniques is that they require nearly perfect knowledge of the channel at the transmitter, which is typically not available in practice. Transmitter designs that address the imperfect channel state …
