TLDR
It is established that the overhead optimization for multiantenna systems is effectively the same as for single-antenna systems with the normalized Doppler frequency multiplied by the number of transmit antennas.Abstract:
The optimization of the pilot overhead in single-user wireless fading channels is investigated, and the dependence of this overhead on various system parameters of interest (e.g., fading rate, signal-to-noise ratio) is quantified. The achievable pilot-based spectral efficiency is expanded with respect to the fading rate about the no-fading point, which leads to an accurate order expansion for the pilot overhead. This expansion identifies that the pilot overhead, as well as the spectral efficiency penalty with respect to a reference system with genie-aided CSI (channel state information) at the receiver, depend on the square root of the normalized Doppler frequency. It is also shown that the widely-used block fading model is a special case of more accurate continuous fading models in terms of the achievable pilot-based spectral efficiency. Furthermore, it is established that the overhead optimization for multiantenna systems is effectively the same as for single-antenna systems with the normalized Doppler frequency multiplied by the number of transmit antennas.read more

Fundamental Limits of Cooperation
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the high-power spectral efficiency is upper bounded by a quantity that does not depend on the transmit powers, and that cooperation is possible only within clusters of limited size, which are subject to out-of-cluster interference whose power scales with that of the incluster signals.

Spectral Efficiency of Dynamic Coordinated Beamforming: A Stochastic Geometry Approach
TL;DR: The results indicate that coordinated beamforming is most beneficial to users that are in the outer part of their cells yet in the inner part oftheir coordination cluster and that the optimal cluster cardinality for the typical user is small and it scales with the fading coherence.
