Abstract
A multi-stream transmission method and device are provided for transmitting N data streams allocated to K different users. The method is implemented by a transmitter for a multi-user MIMO system having NT transmit antennas andreceive antennas associated with K receivers respectively associated with the K users. The method includes: performing a succession of two different iterative algorithms for calculating K precoding matrices of a linear precoder and K decoding matrices of a receiver, the receiver being of the normalized MF type with a Frobenius norm for the first algorithm, and the second iterative algorithm being initialized by a value output by the first iterative algorithm; and before each calculation of precoding matrices, calculating weights for weighting all of the streams.
