Since Maddah-Ali and Tse showed that the completely stale transmitter-side channel state information (CSIT) still benefits the Degrees of Freedom (DoF) of the Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MISO) Broadcast Channel (BC), there has been much interest in the academic literature to investigate the impact of imperfect CSIT on DoF region of time correlated broadcast channel. Even though the research focus has been on time correlated channels so far, a similar but different problem concerns the frequency correlated channels. Indeed, the imperfect CSIT also impacts the DoF region of frequency correlated channels, as exemplified by current multi-carrier wireless systems. This contribution, for the first time in the literature, investigates a general frequency correlated setting where a two-antenna transmitter has imperfect knowledge of CSI of two single-antenna users on two adjacent subbands. A new scheme is derived as an integration of Zero-Forcing Beamforming (ZFBF) and the scheme proposed by Maddah-Ali and Tse. The achievable DoF region resulted by this scheme is expressed as a function of the qualities of CSIT.
