Feedback in SISO Single User Wireless Communication

In this chapter, we study the different feedback strategies for the case of a single user wireless communication system where both the transmitter and the receiver are equipped with a single antenna. After a review of the capacity of finite state and Rayleigh fading channel, we have studied the adaptive transmission over time and frequency where rate and power are adapted in order to maximize the spectral efficiency. We have shown that depending on the availability of the channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter (CSIT) and at the receiver (CSIR), the capacity can significantly increase by exploiting the time variation of the channel. We extend the study to consider the important class of frequency selective channel where the power can be optimally shared among the frequencies. We study the adaptive transmission over time and frequency where rate and power are adapted in order to maximize the spectral efficiency. The adaptive modulation and coding where a joint optimization of the coding rate and modulation is a practical scheme to approach capacity. We then study channel prediction at the transmitter to compensate the delay due to feedback link. While average spectral efficiency is not affected by the time delay, there is a significant degradation on the average bit error depending on the length of the prediction filter. For wideband channel, due to correlation of the channel in frequency, the amount of feedback can be reduced by performing data compression. Finally, we consider the Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) schemes that allow to build a reliable data transmission using ACK/NACK feedback message and data retransmission.
