Position Aware Communication with Noisy Position Measurements

Kurzfassung

This paper presents capacity limits of novel position aware adaptive cellular communication systems exploiting channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter (CSIT). The position aware adaptive communication systems are benchmarked against state-of-the-art adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) systems that use only feedback or predict CSIT in addition to the feedback CSI. We analyze the position aware adaptive communication systems both with perfect and imperfect position information. Numerical results demonstrate that position aware adaptive systems operate close to the channel capacity over a large range of feedback delays and channel variability with perfect position information. Further, position aware adaptive communication systems can outperform state-of-the-art AMC systems for Gaussian distributed position errors with standard deviations smaller than 2.5 m by more than 0.6 bits/s/Hz.
