Abstract: This article studies the performance of the cooperative system where each base station (BS) is connected to a
central process or (CP) via a noiseless and rate-limited backhaul link. The single-user compress-and-forward scheme is
deployed at the BSs, and the problem for jointly setting the quantisation noise and the transmit power levels is left
open. The authors formulate the weighted sum-rate (WSR) problem of optimi sing quantisation and transmit power
levels for K-users and B-BSs situation. However, the problem is non- convex and difficult to be sol ved directly by
conventional convex methods. In this work, an algorithm is proposed to solve the optimisation problem and achieve its
global optimality. More importantly, the authors reveal the reason for the effect of the quantisation levels on the
performance of cooperative system. Lower and upper bounds of quantisation levels are derived u nder the given signal
to interference noise ratio (SINR) requirements. The lower and upper bounds are then demonstrated to be rather close
to the numerical results. It is also numerically shown that the proposed algorithm can achieve the global optimality
and is robust with respect to different multi-user situations.
1 Introduction
In modern cellular systems, network capacity is mainly limited by
inter-cell interference. The limitation is particularly severe near the
cell edge where the quality of service deteriorates sharply due to
strong interference from the nearby cells. To address this issue,
joint multicell processing (MCP) or cooperation of multi-point
(CoMP) is adopted as a superior approach to eliminate inter-cell
interference [1]. In the cooperation among BSs, joint decoding in
the uplink and joint transmission in the downlink are employed to
overcome the interference effect. Theoretically, the interference
can be eliminated entirely when BSs share all the data and perfect
channel state information (CSI) with each other. In the uplink
scenarios, MCP and CoMP are also called as network
multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO).
The inchoate concept of network MIMO is mentioned by
the authors in [2]. The capacity region of network MIMO can be
easily obtained with infinite backhaul link capacity, because the
downlink scenario can be degraded to a broadcast channel (BC) and
the uplink network MIMO can be degraded to a multiple access
channel (MAC). However, in practical uplink scenarios, the effect of
finite backhaul capacity must be taken into consideration. Moreover,
owing to the finite backhaul links, the BSs need to compress
their received signals and then share the quantised signals with each
other via the finite-capacity backhaul links. Thus the quantisation
levels motivate us to explore their effect to the achievable rate
region of uplink network MIMO model with limited backhaul.
Researchers have studied uplink network MIMO with
finite-capacity backhaul in some of the latest research proposals. In
these researches, there are two major kinds of situations. One is
that the BSs are connected with each other for cooperation. While,
the other one is that the BSs are connected to a central processor
(CP) for cooperation. In the former situation, distributed
interference subtraction scheme is applied to acquire an achievable
data rate in [3]. Then in [4], a comprehensive analysis of rate
region under different cooperative schemes and different
quantisation scheme provides new insight into the value of
network MIMO. However, about the second situation, an
achievable rate from user to the CP is given based on a single-user
scenario in [5], and whether the BSs are capable of decoding or
not is also considered. In [6], the situation that two users
communicate with a CP via two BSs is considered. The author
also derives the upper and lower bounds of the average achievable
throughput. Further, under the Wyner model, the achievable
throughput of the multi-user situations are taken into consideration
in [1, 7]. While in [8], the performance of various multiuser
detection scheme is compared under a Gaussian interference
channel. Nevertheless, these works do not study the effect of the
quantisation levels to the performance of the system.
Some authors have also looked at the effect of quantisation levels
in [9–13]. In [9], the authors analysed the performance of the
cooperative system where complex distributed Wyner–Ziv (D-WZ)
compression was used. Further, a robust and efficient distributed
compression for cloud radio access network is proposed to cope
with uncertainties on the correlation of the received signals in
[12]. In [11, 13], the quantisation levels of D-WZ are studied and
optimised to maximise the sum rate under the fixed transmitted
power. However, the distributed compression requires each BS to
have the information about the joint statics of the received signals
across other BSs, and is difficult to be implemented in practice.
Thus, in [10], the authors design simple receiver structures where
a single-user quantiser is deployed on the BSs and successive
interference cancellation (SIC) is applied at the CP. However, all
the works only consider the separated optimisations of transmit
power or quantisation levels and the works about joint
optimisation of transmit power and quantisation levels are very few.
Summary of contributions. In this paper, we focus on the
uplink network MIMO scenario in which each BS is connected
to a CP via a noiseless and rate-limited backhaul link (see Fig. 1).
To implement the compression scheme practically for multicell
processing, the BSs compress the signals using a single-user
quantiser after receiving the signals. Finally, the BSs send the

quantised signals to the CP. In the CP, the SIC scheme is applied for
joint decoding. The contributions are organised as follows:
† We extend the results in [10, Theorem 2] to a weighted sum-rate
(WSR) problem of jointly optimising quantisation levels and
transmit power. However this WSR optimised problem is not a
convex problem with respect to the power values and the
quantisation levels due to the coupled interference.
† By analysing property of the quantisation levels to the WSR
optimised problem and referring to the solution of obtaining the
boundary of the achievable rate region in [14–17], we propose an
algorithm to solve the complex optimised problem and achieve the
global optimality. The convergence of the proposed algorithm is
proved.
† Next, in [18], although we have derived the theoretical lower and
upper bounds of the quantised levels based on two-users and
two-BSs scenario when each user has its own SINR requirement,
the theoretical results are expanded to multi-user and multi-BS
scenario in this paper. The analyses reveal that the quantised levels
not only affect the rate of users, but also save the power of users
to achieve the SINR requirement. In our simulation results, the
global optimality of our proposed algorithm is able to be achieved.
Besides, the results also show that the upper bound and lower
bound are also very close to the theoretical results.
The paper is organised as follows. In Section 2, we briefly
introduce the model of uplink network MIMO system and the
quantised model. In Section 3, the effect of quantisation levels to
the achievable rate region is analysed, and an algorithm is
proposed to achieve the global optimality of the formulated WSR
optimised problem in this section. Then in Section 4, we derive
the theoretical lower and upper bounds of the quantised levels
under the given SINR requirements. The reason why the lower
bound and the upper bound exist is explained. The numerical
simulations are presented in Section 5, and the final conclusions
are drawn in Section 6.
2 System model
In this section, the uplink model considered in our work is depicted
in Fig. 1, where there are K single-antenna users and L
single-antenna base stations (BSs) in our scenarios. Each BS is
connected to the CP via a noiseless backhaul link with capacity C
l
for joint decoding. All the data X
k
of users follow Gaussian
distributions, that is, X
k
[ CN(0, 1). Y
l
denotes the signal received
by BS l and
ˆ
Y
l
the signal quantised by BS l. The coefficient H
lj
∈
ℂ states the channel gain from user j to BS l. n
l
is the background
noise which is also Gaussian as n
l
[ CN(0,
s

).
Hence the signals received by the BS l can be expressed as

where

is the power divided to the data of user i. We assume
individual power constraints per user as
p

imax
, i = 1, 2, ..., K (2)
where P

is the maximised transmitted power of user i.
The BSs are assumed to be oblivious to the codebooks of users
and forward quantised

to the central
processor (CP) via orthogonal backhaul links, each of which has
capacity C

detail description about the quantisation model can be found in
[10, 16], hence we omit for briefty.
3 Problem formulation and propose d solution
In this section, we will review some results in [10, Theorem 2], and
then extend the results to a WSR problem of jointly optimising
quantisation levels and transmit power. Finally, the effect of the
quantisation noise on the performance of our model is explored
and the WSR problem is solved by our proposed algorithm.
3.1 Achievable rate region and formulated WSR
optimised problem
To render the performance of multicell joint processing more
tractable in [10], we assume K = L and a fixed-order SIC scheme
is applied to the CP, which results in much simpler rate
expressions. Next, we define the achievable rate region for the
fixed-order SIC scheme.
Definition 1: The rate region of the fixed-order SIC scheme is
defined as
R
SIC
=
p
1
,..., p
K
(r
1
, ..., r
L
), (4)
and the constraint of r
k
is expressed as
r

i=k+1
||H

p

s

, k = 1, 2, ..., L.

The detail proof of the rate constraint r
k
can be found in [10]. It is
worth mentioning that the single-user quantisation noise Q
k
is
constraint as
log 1 +

i=1
||H

, k = 1, 2, ..., L. (6)
It is obvious that the quantisation noise is related to the feasibility of
the power region from the constraint (6). Under the higher
quantisation levels, the power region becomes much bigger.
Therefore, higher power levels will resist higher quantisation noise
to raise the data rate (5). However, the available maximum power
may be constrained by the maximum power P
kmax
