Finite Rate Feedback for Spatially and Temporally Correlated MISO Channels in the Presence of Estimation Errors and Feedback Delay

In this paper, the problem of finite-rate feedback for spatially and temporally correlated Rayleigh fading multiple input single output (MISO) channels with estimation errors at the receiver and feedback delay is addressed. A model that captures estimation errors, feedback delay, and finite-rate quantization of the channel is developed. A novel codebook design algorithm that minimizes the loss in ergodic capacity is proposed. Simulation results show that the new codebook designed under the consideration of estimation errors and feedback delay outperforms the codebook designed assuming ideal conditions. Analysis for the loss in ergodic capacity for spatially i.i.d channels with channel estimation errors and delay (EED) is presented and validated through simulations.
