Hybrid Precoding Architecture for Massive Multiuser MIMO With Dissipation: Sub-Connected or Fully Connected Structures?
TLDR
In this paper, the authors investigated the spectral efficiencies of two typical hybrid precoding structures, i.e., the sub-connected structure and the fully connected structure, under a more realistic hardware network model, particularly, with inevitable dissipation.Abstract:
In this paper, we study the hybrid precoding structures over limited feedback channels for massive multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We focus on the system performance of hybrid precoding under a more realistic hardware network model, particularly, with inevitable dissipation. The effect of quantized analog and digital precoding is characterized. We investigate the spectral efficiencies of two typical hybrid precoding structures, i.e., the sub-connected structure and the fully connected structure. It is revealed that increasing signal power can compensate for the performance loss incurred by quantized analog precoding. In addition, by capturing the nature of the effective channels for hybrid processing, we employ a channel correlation-based codebook and demonstrate that the codebook shows a great advantage over the conventional random vector quantization codebook. It is also discovered that, if the channel correlation-based codebook is utilized, the sub-connected structure always outperforms the fully connected structure in either massive MIMO or low signal-to-noise ratio scenarios; otherwise, the fully-connected structrue achieves better performance. Simulation results under both Rayleigh fading channels and millimeter wave (mm-wave) channels verify the conclusions above.read more

Massive MIMO for next generation wireless systems
TL;DR: While massive MIMO renders many traditional research problems irrelevant, it uncovers entirely new problems that urgently need attention: the challenge of making many low-cost low-precision components that work effectively together, acquisition and synchronization for newly joined terminals, the exploitation of extra degrees of freedom provided by the excess of service antennas, reducing internal power consumption to achieve total energy efficiency reductions, and finding new deployment scenarios.
