Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, an apparatus and a computer readable storage medium of user selection for MU-MIMO communications. In example embodiments, a method is provided. The method comprises determining a set of candidate terminal devices; and iteratively performing the following at least once until an end condition is met: generating, based on respective channel estimations for the set of candidate terminal devices, a covariance matrix indicating interdependency among the set of candidate terminal devices; determining a minimum eigenvalue of the covariance matrix and an eigenvector corresponding to the minimum eigenvalue, the eigenvector indicating a set of measurements for interdependency among the set of candidate terminal devices; and updating the set of candidate terminal devices by removing, from the set of candidate terminal devices, a candidate terminal device associated with a maximum measurement in the set of measurements.
