A method and network node configured to perform wireless network virtualization to allocate resources of an infrastructure provider (InP) among a plurality of service providers (SPs) are provided. According to one aspect, a method in a network node includes, in each of a plurality of successive time slots in a time interval, T: receiving precoding feedback information from each SP, allocating a virtual transmit power to each cell served by an SP based at least in part on the received precoding feedback information and determining a precoding matrix for each SP. The method also includes minimizing a loss function based at least in part on the received precoding feedback information received in multiple previous time slots.

Delay-tolerant constrained online convex optimization

A method, system and apparatus are disclosed. According to one aspect, a network node configured to communicate with a wireless device (WD), includes processing circuitry configured to perform downlink wireless network virtualization by minimizing an expected deviation of received signals at WDs subject to network node power constraints.

Online MIMO wireless network virtualization with unknown channel information

A method and network node for online coordinated multi-cell precoding are provided. According to one aspect, a method includes receiving from each of the plurality of service providers a virtual precoder matrix determined by the corresponding service provider. The method also includes determining a precoder matrix by minimizing a precoding deviation from a virtualization demand of the network subject to at least one power constraint, the virtualization demand being based at least in part on a product of a channel state matrix and a virtual precoder matrix. The method further includes applying the determined precoder matrix to signals applied to a plurality of antennas to achieve a sum of throughputs for the plurality of service providers that is greater than a sum of throughputs for the plurality of service providers achievable when the virtual precoder matrices are applied to the signals.
