Abstract

In this paper we consider the design of zero forcing (ZF) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) transceivers for non-regenerative multiple input multiple output (MIMO) relay networks. Our designs utilise linear processors at each stage of the network along with a decision feedback detection device at the receiver. Under the assumption of full channel state information (CSI) across the entire link the processors are jointly optimised to minimise the system arithmetic mean square error (MSE) whilst meeting average power constraints at both the source and the relay terminals. We compare the presented methods to linear designs available in the literature and show the advantages of the proposed transceivers through simulation results.
