A cellular base station serves a multiplicity of single-antenna terminals over the same time-frequency interval. Time-division duplex operation combined with reverse-link pilots enables the base station to estimate the reciprocal forward- and reverse-link channels. The conjugate-transpose of the channel estimates are used as a linear precoder and combiner respectively on the forward and reverse links. Propagation, unknown to both terminals and base station, comprises fast fading, log-normal…

The uplink of interference-limited cellular networks with base stations that have large numbers of antennas and use linear Minimum-Mean-Square Error processing with power control is analyzed and mobiles can perform simple power control that does not depend on other users in the network, reducing system complexity and improving the analytical tractability of such systems.

Inter-Cell Interference in Noncooperative TDD Large Scale Antenna Systems

This paper shows that the contamination of the channel estimates happens whenever a pilot sequence is received at a base station simultaneously with non-orthogonal signals coming from other users, and proposes a method to avoid such simultaneous transmissions from adjacent cells, thus significantly decreasing interference.

The uplink of a wireless network with base stations distributed according to a Poisson Point Process (PPP) is analyzed and provides insight into the performance of so-called massive Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems in spatially distributed cellular networks.

Impact of user mobility on optimal linear receivers in cellular networks

Numerical results reveal the outperformance of the proposed OLR against known linear receivers, mostly in environments with high interference and certain user mobility, as well as that massive MIMO is preferable even in time-varying channel conditions.

Downlink Goodput Analysis for Massive MIMO Networks with Underlaid D2D

The system design trade-off between downlink and co-channel device-to-device communications can be investigated analytically and the performance region in which the co- channel device- to- device communications could lead to better overall spectral efficiency can be obtained.

Asymptotic analysis of downlink MISO systems over Rician fading channels

In this work, we focus on the ergodic sum rate in the downlink of a single-cell large-scale multi-user MIMO system in which the base station employs N antennas to communicate with K single-antenna…

Downlink Goodput Analysis for D2D Underlaying Massive MIMO Networks

The system design trade-off between downlink and co-channel device-to-device communications can be investigated analytically and it is shown by simulations that the analytical results matches the actual performance very well.

  • 2012
This work performs an uplink large system analysis of multi-cell multi-antenna system when the receiver employs a matched filtering with a pilot contaminated estimate and finds the asymptotic Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) as the number of antennas and number of users per base station grow large while maintaining a fixed ratio.

Network MIMO With Linear Zero-Forcing Beamforming: Large System Analysis, Impact of Channel Estimation, and Reduced-Complexity Scheduling

A new simplified downlink scheduling scheme that preselects the users according to probabilities obtained from the large-system results, depending on the desired fairness criterion is proposed, performing close to the optimal (finite-dimensional) opportunistic user selection while requiring significantly less channel state feedback, since only a small fraction of preselected users must feed back their channel state information.

Analysis of a mobile wireless link comprising M transmitter and N receiver antennas operating in a Rayleigh flat-fading environment concludes that, for a fixed number of antennas, the capacity approaches the capacity obtained as if the receiver knew the propagation coefficients.

This paper addresses digital communication in a Rayleigh fading environment when the channel characteristic is unknown at the transmitter but is known (tracked) at the receiver with the aim of leveraging the already highly developed 1-D codec technology.

Coordinating multiple antenna cellular networks to achieve enormous spectral efficiency

It is observed that CCT mutes intercell interference enough, so that enormous spectral efficiency improvement associated with using multiple antennas in isolated communication links occurs as well for the base-to-user links in a cellular network.

On the achievable throughput of a multiantenna Gaussian broadcast channel

Under certain mild conditions, this scheme is found to be throughput-wise asymptotically optimal for both high and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and some numerical results are provided for the ergodic throughput of the simplified zero-forcing scheme in independent Rayleigh fading.

BLAST training : Estimating Channel Characteristics for High-Capacity Space-Time Wireless

The results have an interesting implication for BLAST, either in a mobile environment, or for TDMA, where both training and data transmission have to occur within a xed interval: if one wishes to maximize the overall transmission rate, then the number of transmit antennas should be chosen such that half of the interval is used for training, and half ofThe interval for data transmission.

MIMO capacity through correlated channels in the presence of correlated interferers and noise: a (not so) large N analysis

An approach that provides analytic expressions for the statistics of throughput of the mutual information of multiple-antenna systems with arbitrary correlations, interferers, and noise is presented and a method to analytically optimize over the input signal covariance is developed.

The result shows that information-theoretic limits of wireless communication problems can be rigorously obtained without relying on stochastic fading channel models, but studying their physical geometric structure.

Network coordination for spectrally efficient communications in cellular systems

This article considers network coordination as a means to provide spectrally efficient communications in cellular downlink systems and describes how the antenna outputs are chosen in ways to minimize the out-of-cell interference, and hence to increase the downlink system capacity.

Adapting a downlink array from uplink measurements

It is demonstrated that obtaining a good estimate of the uplink covariance matrix is not essential for the successful operation of the adaptive scheme, and even when the mobile is at rest and the uplinking information comprises only a single snapshot from the receiver array, an adaptive scheme can improve the SNR.
