Massive MIMO has Unlimited Capacity. (arXiv:1705.00538v4 [cs.IT] UPDATED)
来源于:arXiv
The capacity of cellular networks can be improved by the unprecedented array
gain and spatial multiplexing offered by Massive MIMO. Since its inception, the
coherent interference caused by pilot contamination has been believed to create
a finite capacity limit, as the number of antennas goes to infinity. In this
paper, we prove that this is incorrect and an artifact from using simplistic
channel models and suboptimal precoding/combining schemes. We show that with
multicell MMSE precoding/combining and a tiny amount of spatial channel
correlation or large-scale fading variations over the array, the capacity
increases without bound as the number of antennas increases, even under pilot
contamination. More precisely, the result holds when the channel covariance
matrices of the contaminating users are asymptotically linearly independent,
which is generally the case. If also the diagonals of the covariance matrices
are linearly independent, it is sufficient to know these diagonals (and not t 查看全文>>
