A comparison of implicit and explicit channel feedback methods for MU-MIMO WLAN systems

In this paper we compare the implicit and explicit methods of providing channel state information (CSI) to the transmitter in a multi-user multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system as specified in the draft specification IEEE 802.11ac [1]. The comparison is made on the basis of both overhead requirements and packet-error-rate (PER) performance. We also propose a hybrid feedback scheme that combines the explicit and implicit feedback methods thus benefiting from more frequent calibration without incurring extra overhead.
