[en] This paper addresses the problem of the interference between multiple co-channel transmissions in the downlink of a multi-antenna wireless system. In this context, symbol-level precoding achieves a constructive interference effect which results in SINR gains at the receivers side. Usually the constructive interference is exploited in the spatial dimension (multi-user interference), however in this work we consider a spatio-temporal precoding model which allows to exploit the interference also in the temporal dimension (inter-symbol interference). The proposed method, which optimizes the overs ampled transmit waveforms by minimizing the per-antenna transmit power, allows faster-than-Nyquist signaling over multi-user MISO systems without imposing additional complexity at the user terminals. The optimization is performed in a sequential fashion, by splitting the data streams in blocks and handling the inter-block interference. Numerical results are presented to assess the gains of the scheme in terms of effective rate and energy efficiency.
