DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Assoc. Prof. Melda Yüksel\, TOBB-ETÜ\n\nTopic: &quot;Prec
 oder Design for Downlink Multiuser MIMO Systems&quot;\n\nLocation: Middle East 
 Technical University\, Ankara\, Turkey\n\nAbstract: In this work\, a downl
 ink wireless communication channel is considered. The base station (BS) ha
 s common data for all users\, unicast data for a set of intended users\, a
 nd transmits the superposition of these messages. This setting neither fal
 ls into the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) nor into the multi-group
  multicasting literatures. In NOMA systems\, the BS has unicast data for a
 ll users\, and multiple users share the same resources. In multi-group mul
 ticasting\, there are non-overlapping groups\, each demanding a different 
 multicast message. This paper studies precoder design to achieve maximum w
 eighted sum rate (WSR). It is first shown that the precoders designed for 
 WSR maximization and weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) minimizati
 on are equivalent. Secondly\, an iterative\, low complexity algorithm (nam
 ed as WMMSE)\, based on WMMSE transmit precoders and receivers\, is propos
 ed. Another low-complexity precoder\, the phase aligned zero forcing (PAZF
 ) precoder is also introduced. The results show that both algorithms conve
 rge fast. The WMMSE algorithm outperforms both PAZF and the zero-forcing (
 ZF) precoder for all signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranges. It offers better 
 interference management and high coherent combining gains for common data\
 , while PAZF finds the optimal phase rotation on the ZF precoder\, and inc
 reases coherent combining gains.\n\nBio: Melda Yuksel received the B.S. de
 gree in electrical and electronics engineering from Middle East Technical 
 University\, Ankara\, Turkey\, in 2001\, and the Ph.D. degree in electrica
 l engineering from Polytechnic Institute of New York University\, Brooklyn
 \, NY\, in August 2007. She joined TOBB University of Economics and Techno
 logy\, Ankara\, Turkey\, in Fall 2007\, where she is currently an associat
 e professor. Her research interests are in information theory\, communicat
 ion theory and wireless communications. Dr. Yuksel is the recipient of the
  best paper award at the Communication Theory Symposium of the 2007 IEEE I
 nternational Conference on Communications and the Turkish National Science
  Foundation CAREER Award. Dr. Yuksel was the treasurer of 2013 IEEE Intern
 ational Symposium of Information Theory. She is currently serving as an ed
 itorial board member of PHYCOM\, Physical Communication.\n\nSpeaker(s): As

 tion channel is considered. The base station (BS) has common data for all 
 users\, unicast data for a set of intended users\, and transmits the super
 position of these messages. This setting neither falls into the non-orthog
 onal multiple access (NOMA) nor into the multi-group multicasting literatu
 res. In NOMA systems\, the BS has unicast data for all users\, and multipl

 s paper studies precoder design to achieve maximum weighted sum rate (WSR)
 . It is first shown that the precoders designed for WSR maximization and w
 eighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) minimization are equivalent. Sec
 ondly\, an iterative\, low complexity algorithm (named as WMMSE)\, based o
 n WMMSE transmit precoders and receivers\, is proposed. Another low-comple
 xity precoder\, the phase aligned zero forcing (PAZF) precoder is also int
 roduced. The results show that both algorithms converge fast. The WMMSE al
 gorithm outperforms both PAZF and the zero-forcing (ZF) precoder for all s
 ignal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ranges. It offers better interference managemen
 t and high coherent combining gains for common data\, while PAZF finds the

 ing gains.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;Bio: Melda Yuksel received the B.S. degree in electrica
