This paper investigates transceiver design for dual-hop up-link multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple- Output (MIMO) system with Amplify-and-Forward (AF) relay to improve the performance of Bit Error Ratio (BER) under the imperfect Channel State Information (CSI). Since the antenna correlation at both ends of the channel and the channel estimation errors are taken into account, a robust transceiver design is proposed. The optimization issue is formed with Minimum Mean-Square Error (MMSE) rule firstly. Then the relaying matrix and the optimal source precoding matrix are optimized at the maximum power constraint of the transmitter and relay station subsequently. Finally, the equalizer is optimized by a gradient-based line search algorithm. Simulation results indicate that the proposed design approach achieves better robustness against antenna correlation and channel estimation errors than existing methods.
