We propose a simple linear precoding scheme to cancel interference in downlink multiuser cellular relay networks where the available information is asymmetric between the base station and the relay node. The interference signal from the relay is eliminated by linear pre-pocessing at the base station without any cooperation between the base station and the relay. In the information asymmetric environment, our mathematical and numerical analysis shows that the proposed scheme outperforms a conventional time division multiple access (TDMA) scheme and approaches an ideal scheme based on dirty paper coding (DPC) in terms of capacity.
