Precoding Design for Correlated MIMO-AF Relay Networks With Statistical Channel State Information.

An iterative precoding design of a two-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) multiple-input multiple-output relay network with one source, multiple relays, and one destination is presented. To provide a solution for general scenarios, the source-to-destination direct link and double correlated Kronecker Rician fading channels are considered. Statistical channel state information is used for the average cap...
