Dense large-scale antenna deployments are one of the most promising technologies for delivering very large throughputs per unit area in the downlink (DL) of cellular networks. We consider such a dense deployment involving a distributed…

The use of a very large number of antennas at each base station site (referred to as "Massive MIMO") is one of the most promising approaches to cope with the predicted wireless data traffic explosion. In combination with Time Division…

The pilot contamination in cell-free massive multiple-input-multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) must be addressed for accommodating a large number of users. In previous works, we have investigated a decontamination method called subspace projection…

This paper presents a new approach to intra-cell pilot contamination in crowded massive MIMO scenarios. The approach relies on two essential properties of a massive MIMO system, namely near-orthogonality between user channels and…

Despite the common belief that substantial capacity gains can be achieved by using more antennas at the base-station (BS) side in cellular networks, the effect of BS antenna topology on the capacity scaling behavior is little understood. In…

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MaMIMO) has become an integral part of the fifth-generation (5G) standard, and is envisioned to be further developed in beyond 5G (B5G) networks. With a massive number of antennas at the base station…

Two key traits of 5G cellular networks are much higher base station (BS) densities - especially in the case of low-power BSs - and the use of massive MIMO at these BSs. This paper explores how massive MIMO can be used to jointly maximize…

In this paper, we analyze the benefits of including downlink pilots in a cell-free massive MIMO system. We derive an approximate per-user achievable downlink rate for conjugate beamforming processing, which takes into account both uplink…

One main goal of 5G-and-beyond systems is to simultaneously serve many users, each having a requested spectral efficiency (SE), in an energy-efficient way. The network capacity cannot always satisfy all the SE requirements, for example,…

We study a full-duplex (FD) cell-free massive MIMO system where distributed access points (APs) operate in FD mode while user equipments (UEs) remain half-duplex. Although simultaneous uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) transmissions improve…

We consider the uplink of a cellular massive MIMO network. Since the spectral efficiency of these networks is limited by pilot contamination, the pilot allocation across cells is of paramount importance. However, finding efficient pilot…

We propose a novel framework for optimizing antenna parameter settings in a heterogeneous cellular network. We formulate an optimization problem for both coverage and capacity - in both the downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) - which configures…

Assume that a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system is designed from scratch to uniformly cover a given area with maximal energy efficiency (EE). What are the optimal number of antennas, active users, and transmit power?…
