Abstract

This paper is concerned with a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multi-user wireless networks in which multiple secondary users (SUs) can share the same radio spectrum with a single primary user (PU). The design problems of the transceivers in such MIMO interference channels are to find the precoding matrices at the transmitters and the receiving matrices at the receivers to minimize the mean square error (MSE) or to maximize the sum-rate of the SUs while guaranteeing the interference power at the PU receiver below an acceptable threshold. In this paper, we consider to design the transceivers using the interference alignment techniques. The objective is to align the interference at the SUs and maintain an acceptable leakage interference level from the SUs into the signal subspace of the PU receiver. Due to the nonlinearity and nonconvexity of the underlaying problems, we develop an alternating algorithm which efficiently solves a convex optimization in each iteration. The numerical results are provided to validate the performance of our algorithm.
