On the Performance of Cell-Free Massive MIMO in Ricean Fading
(2019) IEEE 52nd Annual Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers- Abstract
- We consider an uplink time–division duplex cell–free massive multiple–input multiple–output (MIMO) system in which many user equipments (UEs) are simultaneously served by many access points (APs) via simple matched filtering processing. The propagation channel is modeled via the Ricean distribution, which includes a dominant line–of–sight component on top of diffuse scattering. The Ricean K–factor of each link varies with the UE location (relative to the locations of the APs). The system performance in terms of the spectral efficiency is investigated taking into account imperfect channel knowledge. Power and AP–
weighting control is proposed to maximize the lowest spectral efficiency across all UEs. This optimization problem can be...

This optimization problem can be efficiently solved via a bisection method by solving a sequence of linear feasibility problems together with the generalized eigenvalue problem. We show that by optimally selecting the power control and AP–weighting coefficients, the per–UE throughput increases significantly. Furthermore, we propose an AP selection scheme to reduce the backhaul requirements in a cell–free massive MIMO system, with slight reduction in performance. (Less)
