Abstract:

Conventional interference alignment (IA) requires perfect channel state infromation and is sensitive to channel uncertainties. Based on the norm-bounded channel uncertainties model, this paper proposes three worst-case approach robust IA algorithms. First, to decrease the interference and signal leakage, a robust algorithm is proposed to minimize the maximum leakage power; Second, to increase the interference and signal in the corresponding subspace, another robust algorithm is proposed to maximize the minimun subspace projection; finally, a united robust algorithm is proposed by uniting the two algorithms above. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms can outperform the conventional algorithms when channel uncertainties are norm-bounded, which affirms the robustness of the proposed algorithm.
