A kind of selection of multiuser MIMO uplink antenna and user scheduling method
Technical field
The present invention relates to forth generations and the 5th third-generation mobile communication field.To solve the above problems, the invention proposes one kind The selection of multiuser MIMO uplink antenna and user scheduling method (Joint Antenna Selection and User Scheduling, JASUS), the rate capability of the local optimum of the algorithm is more preferable, approaches exhaust algorithm (Brute-Force Search,BFS);Meanwhile the computation complexity of the algorithm is far below the method for exhaustion, has larger application value.Therefore the present invention is more It is a kind of promising day line options and user scheduling method in user's mimo system.
Background technique
In modern and future mobile communication system, base station services multiple users simultaneously by deployment aerial array, from And constitute multi-user's multiple-input and multiple-output (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output, MIMO) system.
In the past decade, the MIMO technology in wireless communication is with its higher power system capacity and spectrum efficiency and by generation Researcher's extensive concern within the scope of boundary [is shown in document 1:G.Xu, A.Liu, W.Jiang, H.Xiang, and W.Luo, " Joint user scheduling and antenna selection in distributed massive MIMO systems with limited backhaul capacity,”China Communications,,vol.11,no. 5,pp.17-30, 2014].In commercial LTE system, the communication system based on MIMO technology has been the online experience band of mobile subscriber Tremendous increase is carried out.
In point-to-point MIMO communication, sender unit and receiver all include more antennas, it can be achieved that the space communicated Diversity and multiplexing.Theoretically, in the case where not increasing extra bandwidth and sending power, capacity acquired by mimo system with The minimum value of system dual-mode antenna quantity linearly increase [see document 2:F.Rusek, D.Persson, L.Buon Kiong, E.G.Larsson,T.L.Marzetta,O.Edfors,and F.Tufvesson, “Scaling up MIMO: opportunities and challenges with very large arrays,”IEEE Signal Processing Mag.,vol.30,pp.40-60,2013].In mobile cellular communication, multiuser MIMO (Multi-User MIMO, MU- MIMO) communication system has been widely used.When mobile base station obtains the channel state information of itself and different user When (Channel State Information, CSI), base station can use suitable precoding (wave beam forming of broad sense) skill Art gives multiple users to provide information services simultaneously, significantly improve traffic rate [see document 3-5:H.Q.Ngo, E.G.Larsson, and T.L.Marzetta, “Energy and spectral efficiency of very large multiuser MIMO systems,"IEEE Trans. Commun.,vol.61,no.4,pp.1436–1449,Apr.2012;L.Dai, Z.Wang,and Z.Yang, “Spectrally efficient time-frequency training OFDM for mobile large-scale MIMO systems,”IEEE J.Sel.Areas Commun.,vol.31,no.2,pp.251– 263,Feb.2013;Z.Lu, J.Ning,Y.Zhang,T.Xie,and W.Shen,"Richardson method based linear precoding with low complexity for massive MIMO systems,”in Proc.of IEEE 81st VTC Spring, 2015,pp.1-4].Currently, in the LTE-Advanced protocol specification of one of 4G standard It at most only include small scale MIMO (small-scale MIMO) [document 5:Z.Lu, J.Ning, Y.Zhang, T. of 8 antennas Xie,and W.Shen,“Richardson method based linear precoding with low complexity For massive MIMO systems, " in Proc.of IEEE 81st VTC Spring, 2015, pp.1-4], and Massive MIMO (also referred to as large-scale MIMO) technical requirements base station end includes 64 even up to a hundred antennas, is considered Be most be hopeful in following 5G communication with the technology of prospect [see document 6-7:E.Larsson, O.Edfors, F.Tufvesson, and T.Marzetta,“Massive MIMO for next generation wireless systems,”IEEE Commun.Mag.,vol.52,no.2,pp.186-195,Feb.2014;Y. Wang and Y.Dong,"A genetic antenna selection algorithm for massive MIMO systems with channel estimation Error,”in Proc.of Advances in Wireless and Optical Commun.(RTUWO),2015,pp.1– 4].In multiuser MIMO especially Massive mimo system, when antenna for base station quantity is enough, different user to base station Channel approximation mutually orthogonal [see document 6:Y.Wang and Y.Dong, " A genetic antenna selection algorithm for massive MIMO systems with channel estimation Error,”in Proc.of Advances in Wireless and Optical Commun. (RTUWO), 2015, pp.1-4], small scale channel fading and Uncorrelated noise can also be eliminated [see document 8:M.Benmimoune, E.Driouch, W.Ajib, and D.Massicotte, “Joint transmit antenna selection and user scheduling for massive MIMO systems,"in Proc.of IEEE WCNC,2015,pp.381-386];If, can be with using suitable precoding technique Completely eliminate the interference of information between different user.However, needing deployment and antenna in design for the antenna for making full use of base station The equal AFE module of quantity, this is not applicable in actual design.Due to base station AFE(analog front end) (Analog Front-End, AFE) module number is limited, uplink can simultaneous selection antenna amount and the user that is serviced all suffer restraints.
For diversity, the spatial multiplexing gain for making full use of big aerial array, radio-frequency front-end resource is saved, day line options are to close very much A kind of suitable selection [is shown in document 8:M.Benmimoune, E.Driouch, W.Ajib, and D. Massicotte, " Joint transmit antenna selection and user scheduling for massive MIMO systems,”in Proc.of IEEE WCNC,2015,pp.381-386].In the limited situation of AFE resource, day line options can be selected " most One group of antenna well " is communicated, such as selects channel conditions preferably or the highest one group of antenna of output signal-to-noise ratio.Study people There are many research achievements in terms of antenna selection by member.In the uplink, [see document 9:Y.Gao, W.Jiang, and T.Kaiser,“Bidirectional branch and bound based antenna selection in massive MIMO systems, " in Proc.of IEEE 26th PIMRC, 2015, pp.563-568] it proposes based on finding matrix The dicomponent of maximum minimum singular value (Minimum Singular Value, MSV) delimits (Bidirectional Branch and Bound, BBAB) algorithm realization day line options;Since there are monotonicity, this day line options energy for singular values of a matrix Globally optimal solution is enough searched for, and more much lower than the complexity of the method for exhaustion.In channel there are in the case where error, [document 7] is utilized Gene hepatitis B vaccine can realize the day line options based on water-filling;Low signal-to-noise ratio (Signal-to-Noise Ratio, When SNR), which is able to achieve better channel capacity than traditional algorithm.[document 10:S.E.El-Khamy, K.H. Moussa,A.A.El-Sherif,“On the performance of massive multiuser MIMO with different transmit beamforming techniques and antenna selection,”in Proc.of 2015 1st URSI Atlantic Radio Science Conference (URSI AT-RASC), 2015, pp.1-10] it mentions Go out based on the maximum Antenna Selection Algorithem of two norm of subscriber channel vector, which can be realized in the case of wave beam forming (Bit Error Rate, BER) performance boost.
On the other hand, due to the constraint of AFE module, most multipotency while the number of users of service when base station sends and receives signal Amount is no more than AFE resource module quantity, and the orthogonality of user also will affect multiuser MIMO system performance.Therefore user's tune Degree is also extremely important in system performance realization.It is assessed based on user distribution formula, [document 11:X.Xie and X.Zhang, “Scalable user selection for MU-MIMO networks,”in Proc.of IEEE INFOCOM,2014, Pp.808-816] user's dispatching algorithm based on competitive channel feedback is proposed, when which can effectively save CSI acquisition Between.Using zero-forcing beamforming (Zero-Forcing Beamforming, ZFBF) precoding, [document 1] is based on winding capacity Constraint proposes the day line options and user's dispatching algorithm of three kinds of searching locally optimal solutions;In existing local antenna set and user On the basis of set, locally optimal solution is jumped out by exchange antenna and user element, close to globally optimal solution.It is complicated to reduce Degree, [document 8] are proposed in the downlink based on the day line options of user's subspace orthogonality and user's scheduling, the algorithm energy Enough optimal performances [seeing document 8] for realizing the approximate method of exhaustion.
In addition, [document 12:Y.Cao and V.Kariwala, " Bidirectional branch and bound for controlled variable selection:Part I.Principles and minimum singular value Criterion, " Computers&Chemical Engineering, vol.32, no.10, pp.2306-2319,2008] and [document 13:T.Yoo and A.Goldsmith, " On the optimality of multiantenna broad-cast scheduling using zero-forcing beamforming,”IEEE J.Select.Areas Commun., Vol.24, no.3, pp.528-541, Mar.2006.] in also proposed day line options and user's dispatching algorithm.
But various algorithms should realize the performances such as standard deviation of superior system velocity, rate, again reduce to calculate Complexity is currently to be difficult to realize.
Summary of the invention

Specific embodiment
As previously mentioned, the antenna cost of base station is very low in multiuser MIMO especially Massive MIMO communication system, Aerial array can be constituted with large scale deployment;But AFE(analog front end) resource is relatively expensive, and all disposing an AFE for every antenna can be big Amount increases cost, and will cause the wasting of resources.Considering the limited practical application scene of AFE module, proposition of the embodiment of the present invention A kind of day line selection for the search maximum MSV that the downward branch-and-bound based on user's semi-orthogonal, local iteration's optimizing combine It selects and user scheduling method, does not obviously increase complexity in the case where improving performance.Below from algorithmic descriptions, method and step It is illustrated with the several aspects of performance evaluation.
One, algorithmic descriptions
1.1 system models and problem rate
1.1.1 system model
Assuming that in multiuser MIMO cellular cell, base station deployment M root antenna and N number of AFE module, and M > > N.Meanwhile Assuming that there are k single-antenna subscriber etc. is to be serviced in the cell, k > N.Because the quantity of base station AFE module limits, base station is each The N root antenna that at most channel quality can only be selected best from M root antenna sends and receives signals, and can only at most service N simultaneously A user.If considering the up channel of multiuser MIMO, antenna for base station received signal meets following formula:
Wherein, y is received aerial signal vector, andUser to base station it is quasi-static solely Vertical same distribution Rayleigh channel matrix;It is the emission signal vector that k user is uploaded to base station,It is M day Line receives the additive white Gaussian noise (Additive White Gaussian Noise, AWGN) being superimposed on signal, and each point Amount all obey mean value be 0, the multiple Gauss random distribution that variance is 1, i.e. zi~CN (0,1).
In base station receiving end, optimum reception can be achieved with using linear receiver such as squeeze theorem etc..Wherein,It is the receiving matrix of multi-user MIMO system, and W=(HHH)-1HH/||(HHH)-1HH||2, wherein | | | |2For Two norms, ()HIt is the conjugate transposition of matrix.
It is as follows that the user that then receiver detects sends signal:
Wherein, τ=| | (HHH)-1HH||2.Then the SNR of user k meets [9]:
Wherein, λmin(H) minimum singular value of matrix H is represented.
1.1.2 problem describes
If the uplink transmission power P of single user is certain, the quantity N of the AFE module of base station deployment is certain, then base station is each N root antenna can only be at most utilized, constitutes antenna set A, and system at most can provide communication service simultaneously for N user, Constitute user's set U;The channel matrix then finally actually used are as follows:
HA,U=H (A, U) (4)
Because communication process is random process, therefore system is maximum ergodic and rate are as follows:
In formula, E { } is mathematic expectaion, and antenna set and user's set need to meet constraint condition:
|A|≤N
|U|≤N (6)
In formula, | | it is cardinal of the set.By formula (4), (5), (6) it is found that when communication system rate maximum, user gathers The element number of U and antenna set A is N.According to formula (3) and (5) it is found that make the rate of system maximum, then need to meet Following condition:
λmin(HA,U)≥λmin(H′)
H∈{Hs|Hs∈CN×N,Hs=H(N,N)} (7)
The channel matrix H finally selected based on antenna set A and user's set UA,UIn all N of H × N-dimensional submatrix H(N,N)In have maximum MSV [9].
For such NP-hard problem, the method for exhaustion can search out globally optimal solution, but computation complexity is high.It is full Sufficient practical application, the present invention propose day line options and user scheduling method (the Largest MSV based-based on maximum MSV JASUS, LMSV-JASUS) find locally optimal solution.The algorithm and the selection of existing joint antenna and user scheduling method (JASUS) algorithm complexity is suitable, by by (Throughput and Complexity Balanced JASUS, TCB- JASUS) algorithm commutative element can skip the thinking of current local optimum, and performance is made to have further promotion, therefore be a kind of close The algorithm of globally optimal solution.
The JASUS algorithm of 1.2 search maximum MSV
It is analyzed based on the problem of 1.1 section, this section will be described in detail based on the downward branch-and-bound of user's semi-orthogonal, part The LMSV-JASUS algorithm that iteration optimizing combines.The algorithm is largely divided into two parts:
1) the downward branch-bound algorithm based on semi-orthogonal user selection
By the algorithm can find as far as possible system performance close to the method for exhaustion antenna set A and user's set U;
2) the local iteration's optimizing algorithm exchanged based on antenna with user's set element
In the case where having obtained A and U, fixed set A, U, exchanges the user element chosen and antenna element respectively. If it find that set A, U after commutative element can make channel speed bigger, then current locally optimal solution is jumped out to another individual character It can more preferably locally optimal solution.Because globally optimal solution is the maximum value in locally optimal solution, therefore this method has more maximum probability Obtain globally optimal solution.
1.2.1 the downward branch-bound algorithm based on semi-orthogonal
1) downward branch-bound algorithm
Downward branch-bound algorithm is a kind of unsupervised classification algorithm, may search for the overall situation when meeting downward monotonicity most It is excellent.Its category theory is as follows:
Target: assuming that there is set X={ 1,2,3,4,5 } includes 5 elements, it is now desired to select 2 from this collection The set X that a element is constituted2, meet objective function J (X):
Downward monotonicity: set X if it existsn, whenWhen, always have:
J(Xn)≥J(Xm)(9)
Objective function J (X) is then claimed to meet downward monotonicity.If set XnMeet:
Then set XSPlace branch is the optimal direction of search.
Global optimum: it is based on the downward monotonicity of objective function J (X), by successive ignition, which can be obtained entirely Office optimal solution X2
As shown in Figure 1, branch-bound algorithm is divided into search branch and boundary determines two processes.Steps are as follows:
A) root node is original collection X={ 1,2,3,4,5 }, includes 5 elements.
B) branch is searched for: set X size is n, can be divided into n search branch, and each branch, which represents, removes it from set X In an element i, constitute set X-i, i=1 ..., n;In the first round, set X has 5 elements, therefore is segmented into 5 Branch;Number in branch is represented removes the element from set X, therefore has 5 branches.
C) boundary determines: according to b) principle, the set X that each branch is generated-iIt brings objective function into, calculates J (X-i) Value;Find out J (X-i) in make the maximum set X of function valueS(meeting formula (10)).In the first round, after removing element 3 Set Xs={ 1,2,4,5 } are the optimal directions of search.
It d) will set XSIt is replaced by X, whether the element number for calculating the set meets the requirements.If it is greater than 2, go to Step b) is executed;If being equal to 2, just terminate search process.
Based on a)~d), it is searched for by three-wheel, each wheel successively removes element 3,2,5;Finally obtain globally optimal solution X2= {1,4}.The algorithm needs to search for altogether (M-N) wheel, and total computation complexity is not high.
2) the downward branch-bound algorithm based on semi-orthogonal user selection
If J (Xn) meet dullness downwards, globally optimal solution can be searched out according to branch-bound algorithm principle.In [9] In, when fixed by service user, only carry out day line options;The maximum MSV of channel matrix H is J (A)=λ at this timemin(H(A,:)) Meet downwards dull [9,12], globally optimal solution can be obtained.
In the present invention, when number of users is greater than AFE quantity (k > N), it is necessary to while antenna and user's selection are carried out, J (A, U)=λ at this timemin(H(A,U)) just not exclusively meet dullness downwards, therefore globally optimal solution cannot be obtained.
Based on the above analysis, LMSV-JASUS algorithm of the invention is just proposed using the principle for finding local maxima MSV Realize that the downward branch-bound algorithm of JASUS, the algorithm are true using antenna subset branch, semi-orthogonal user selection, the direction of search Fixed three steps carry out day line options.To select most suitable N number of user from k user, the present invention is utilized in [13] and is proposed The maximum user's semi-orthogonal of the best and orthogonal amplitude based on user's semi-orthogonal select (Semi-orthogonal User Selection, SUS) algorithm.Therefore each node of Fig. 1 can first with the most suitable user's set U of SUS algorithms selection, then It solves based on currently by each antenna branch of service user's set UDetermine optimal search DirectionRemoving influences maximum single antenna m to system performance.It is secondary by (M-N) Iteration can obtain local optimum set A, U under this condition.
1.2.2 local iteration's optimizing algorithm
Under normal circumstances, 1.2.1 algorithm solve antenna and user's set A, U can all fall into local optimum rather than the overall situation most It is excellent, and the fluctuation of locally optimal solution is very big.For the fluctuation for reducing locally optimal solution, the present invention is based on the parts of [1] design Iteration optimizing algorithm can jump out current locally optimal solution and find the better locally optimal solution of performance, increase and obtain globally optimal solution Possibility.Its concrete thought is as shown in Figure 2:
Assuming that each point in plane gathers (A by an antenna, user there are two-dimensional surface spacei,Uj) indicateTarget is exactly that find optimal point allows system and rate maximum.
A) antenna and user's set A, U that local optimum is obtained according to the downward branch-bound algorithm of 1.2.1, are set to Initial point P (A1, U1).
B) fixed antenna set A1 finds user's set U2 that antenna set determines using SUS algorithm;Gather (A1, U2) Constitute point q.If q point calculate acquisition system and rate be greater than p point and rate, update optimal solution (A, U)= (A1,U2)。
C) fixed user's set U2, optimal antenna set A2 is searched out using DBAB algorithm, constitutes point R.If in R The system and rate of point are greater than system and rate in q point, then updating optimal solution is (A, U)=(A2, U2).
D) step c), d) is repeated, until system and rate are not further added by.Solution set (A, U) at this time is exactly final output Antenna set and user set.
Two, the specific implementation step of each algorithm
In 1.2 trifles, structure composition and realization principle of the detailed analysis of the present invention based on LMSV-JASUS algorithm.Its Mainly it is made of downward branch-bound algorithm, semi-orthogonal user selection algorithm and local iteration's optimizing algorithm.The tool of each algorithm Shown in body realizes that steps are as follows.
2.1 downward branch-bound algorithms (DBAB)
Downward branch-bound algorithm of the invention determines three by antenna subset branch, semi-orthogonal user selection, the direction of search A step is constituted, according to the analysis of 1.2.1 trifle it is found that the algorithm can obtain the antenna set A of local optimum and user gathers U.Specific steps process is as shown in Figure 3:
A) base station obtains channel matrix H, obtains AFE module number N, antenna amount M and the number of users k of system;Initially Change the wheel number t of antenna set A to be selected and search circulation:
A=1 ..., M } (11)
T=1 (12)
B) for any antenna element i ∈ A, set A is generated after removing antenna i in antenna set A-i, and being based on should Antenna set obtains current channel matrix H-i
C) it calls semi-orthogonal user to select (SUS) algorithm (2.2 detailed analysis), transmits respective channels matrix H-iWith single energy Number of users that may be served N generates corresponding user's set U-i
D) according to A-i、U-iCalculate the minimum singular value of corresponding channel matrixIt finds out and makes minimum unusual It is worth maximum antenna set and user's set A-i、U-i, instruction satisfaction:
A←{i∈A,i≠m} (14)
U=U-m (15)
If e) | A | > N, t ← t+1 repeat b)~d);If | A |=N stops iterative process, exports local optimum Antenna set and user's set A, U.
2.2 semi-orthogonal users select (SUS) [8]
Semi-orthogonal user's selection algorithm be the user U that selects N number of orthogonality best in the case where antenna set A is fixed into Row service, the algorithm are taken turns search by N and are completed.Every wheel selects one from user to be selected set and has selected family collection orthogonality Best user is added by service user's set, until including N number of element by service user's set.Input parameter is CSI matrix H =[h1,…,hk] and the number of users N that can be serviced simultaneously.Implementation step is as follows:
A) parameter initialization:
According to CSI information, total number of users is k in cell.Initialize user's set T to be selected1With the i-th selected user:
T1=1 ..., k } (16)
I=1 (17)
Being selected user's set U of service is empty set:
B) for each user k ∈ Ti, it is based on channel vector hkCalculate itself and extending space { g(1),…,g(i-1)It is orthogonal Component gk:
As i=1, gk=hk.Wherein, orthogonal vectors base g(j)To selected user j=1 ..., the efficient orthogonal of (i-1) Component.
C) finding i-th, most preferably by service user π (i), (symbol refers to that the i-th wheel collects T from user to be selectediThe condition of middle selection The best number by service user):
U←U∪π(i) (21)
g(i)=gπ(i) (22)
If d) | U | < N, i ← i+1 update antenna set T to be selectedi+1Are as follows:
Ti+1={ k ∈ Ti,k≠π(i)} (23)
Repeat step b)~d);Otherwise, it goes to e);
E) returning to space size is N by selection user's set U.
The optimizing of 2.3 local iterations solves
By 2.1 and 2.2 constitute the JASUS based on user's semi-orthogonal can obtain one group of locally optimal solution (A, U).The process of the key step of the local iteration's optimizing algorithm carried out on this basis is as shown in Figure 4:
F) antenna and user's set A, U that local optimum is obtained according to 2.1 downward branch-bound algorithms, are set to just Initial point (A, U).
G) current optimal antenna and user are saved and gathers (A_t, U_t)=(A, U).
H) (i=1,2 ... be iteration wheel number) the fixed antenna set A in the i-th wheel, optimal use is solved using SUS algorithm Family set Ui.If point (A, U in plane at this timei) make system velocity R (A, Ui) > R (A, U) meets, then updates user's set U =Ui, system and rate R (A, U)=R (A, Ui);Otherwise, U and R (A, U) are not updated.
I) fixed user's set U can solve current optimal antenna set using downward branch-bound algorithm (not including SUS) Close Ai.If point (the A in plane at this timei, U) and make system velocity R (Ai, U) and > R (A, U), then update antenna set A=Ai, be Unite and rate R (A, U)=R (Ai,U);Otherwise, not more fresh target solution A and R (A, U).
J) whether identical compare the optimal solution (A, U) updated after optimal solution (A_t, U_t) and iteration.If it is different, again Execute c)~e);If identical, stop iterative process, executes method k).

Three, performance evaluation
The evaluation of 3.1 numerical results
In this trifle, by LMSV-JASUS algorithm proposed by the present invention and JASUS [8], TCB-SUS [1], the method for exhaustion (BFS) system performance of scheduling algorithm is compared, and analyzes the superiority and inferiority of various methods.In emulation experiment, due to the meter of the method for exhaustion Calculation complexity is too high, and when being related to compared with method of exhaustion performance, parameter setting is all smaller.
Fig. 5 be different joint antenna selection and user's dispatching algorithm Mean Speed with SNR comparison diagram.Because wireless Channel is random process, therefore the rate and standard deviation of taking system in testing are as measurement index;And because the height of the method for exhaustion is multiple Miscellaneous degree, therefore reduced parameter.Assuming that in nest bee system single subdistrict, 10 antennas of base station deployment and 5 AFE modules share 10 A user needs to be serviced.Due to AFE limited amount, can only at most there are 5 users to be serviced every time in uplink communication.Therefore base Five antennas can at most be selected every time while service 5 users by standing.Assuming that system is ergodic, the equal of 50 subrates is solved in text It is worth the expectation as system velocity.When the SNR of system progressively increases to 30dB by 0dB, LMSV-JASUS algorithm is than existing JASUS, TCB-SUS have better rate it is expected, and LMSV-JASUS algorithm solves in patent system and rate approach BFS's Optimal value.
What the standard deviation that Fig. 6 is different the average and rate of joint antenna selection and user's dispatching algorithm changed with SNR Comparison diagram.Its major parameter is consistent with the setting of Fig. 5.With the increase of SNR, the LMSV- minimum with speed standard difference of the method for exhaustion JASUS algorithm approaches the method for exhaustion with speed standard difference, has lower value than existing JASUS, TCB-SUS, system and fast Rate is relatively more stable.
Fig. 7 is that different joint antennas select and the rate of user's dispatching algorithm is with AFE change curve.Assuming that in cellular system In single subdistrict, base station deployment has 64 antennas, which shares user 25, and the SNR of user transmitting terminal is 10dB.Because it Line number amount and number of users are more, and the rate of BFS does not just compare again.When the quantity of AFE progressively increases to 12 by 4, The TCB-JASUS for only relying on element exchange loses the upper hand quickly, falls into locally optimal solution;JASUS and LMSV-JASUS algorithm Rate can continue increasing, and algorithm ratio JASUS performance of the invention is more preferably.
Fig. 8 is that different antennae selects and the mean iterative number of time of user's dispatching algorithm is with the increased change curve of AFE. JASUS does not have iterative process, therefore not drawn in the figure.It can be found that with the increase of AFE quantity, the iteration of TCB-JASUS Number is about 2, and the number of iterations for local iteration's optimizing algorithm that article proposes is always slightly less than 1, and relative constant.This explanation exists In most cases, the result of the downward branch-bound algorithm based on the selection of user's semi-orthogonal is all can be by iteration again It optimizes, but being obviously improved for performance can be achieved with by an iteration.
Based on the analysis to Fig. 5-8 it is found that the system velocity of realization of LMSV-JASUS algorithm, the standard deviation of rate all compare The performance of more excellent, the closer method of exhaustion of TCB-JASUS, JASUS.Existing downward branch-bound algorithm realizes the solution of JASUS all Local optimum can be fallen into, the performance for only relying on the iteration optimizing algorithm of element exchange is easy to lose work when selected set increases With.Method proposed by the present invention had not only given full play to the advantage of two kinds of algorithms, but also not will increase the number of iterations.Therefore it is proposed by the present invention The LMSV-JASUS algorithm that downward branch-and-bound, local iteration's optimizing based on the selection of user's semi-orthogonal combine is that have very much Meaning.
3.2 analysis of complexity
The computation complexity of LMSV-JASUS algorithm proposed by the present invention mainly from based on user's semi-orthogonal select to The computation complexity of inferior division key-machine and local iteration's optimizing algorithm is constituted.
Based on 1.2.1 section analysis it is found that the computation complexity based on downward branch-bound algorithm is mainlyAnd the computation complexity of objective function J (x) include orthogonal users set selection algorithm SUS, really The complexity of SVD after determining user's set, i.e.,Therefore downward branch-bound algorithm Complexity be
Analysis is saved based on 1.2.2 it is found that wheel local iteration's optimizing includes individual SUS and downward branch-bound algorithm. So when computation complexity be
Therefore the computation complexity of LMSV-JASUS algorithm is aboutT is iteration wheel number. Since the mean iterative number of time of actual emulation is lower than once, total average computation complexity is less than So its computation complexity does not obviously increase compared with the JASUS algorithm in [8].
