Due to not considering the multiuser interference (MUI) and noise when selecting the subchannels and obtaining the precoding vectors, the performance of the coordinated BD algorithm is poor. In this paper, we propose a novel coordinated 10 beamforming approach for multiuser MIMO downlink systems, which takes the MUI and noise into account when selecting the subchannels and obtaining the precoding vectors. Simulation results also confirm that the proposed coordinated scheme outperforms the conventional coordinated BD scheme, which never considers the noise’s influence in the process of obtaining the transmit beamforming vectors. 15 Keywords:Multi-input multi-output(MIMO); Multiuser; coordinated beamforming; block diagonalizat ion(BD); coordinated BD; channel extension 0 Introduction Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems have drawn a lot of attention in the past few years 20 because of their promising improvement in terms of performance and bandwidth efficiency [1] [2] [3]. An important research topic is the study of multiuser MIMO systems, which have the potential to combine the high throughput achievable in MIMO processing with the benefits of space division multiple access (SDMA). More recently, the researches of the capacity region of the m
