Forward Link Analysis for Full-Duplex Cellular Networks with Low Resolution ADC/DAC

Signal Processing 2022-05-20 v3

Abstract

In this work, we consider a full-duplex (FD) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular network with low resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Our first contribution is to propose a unified framework for forward link analysis where matched filter precoders are applied at the FD base stations (BSs) under channel hardening. Second, we derive expressions for the signal-to-quantization-plus-interference-plus-noise ratio (SQINR) for general and special cases. Finally, we quantify effects of quantization error, pilot contamination, and full duplexing for a hexagonal cell lattice on spectral efficiency and cumulative distribution function (CDF) to show that FD outperforms half duplex (HD) in a wide variety of scenarios.
