Summary :

Vector precoding is a nonlinear broadcast precoding scheme in the downlink of multi-user MIMO systems which outperforms linear precoding and THP (Tomlinson-Harashima Precoding). This letter discusses the problem of joint receive antenna selection in the multi-user MIMO downlink with vector precoding. Based on random matrix analysis, we derive a simple heuristic selection criterion using singular value decomposition (SVD) and carry out an exhaustive search to determine for each user which receive antenna should be used. Simulation results reveal that receive antenna selection using our proposed criterion obtains the same diversity order as the optimal selection criterion.
