Joint beamforming and power control in downlink multiuser MIMO systems

In this paper we discuss joint beamforming and power control for downlink multiuser MIMO systems with target signal-to-interference+noise ratios (SINR) constraints. We derive necessary conditions for minimizing total interference at downlink receivers and present an algorithm which adapts the beamforming vectors and powers incrementally to meet specified SINR targets with minimum powers. The proposed algorithm is illustrated with numerical examples obtained from simulations.
