Superimposed Transmission for Cooperative Cellular and Cell-Free Massive MIMO Systems

Wei Jiang, Hans D. Schotten

This paper proposes a superimposed transmission strategy for cooperative cellular and cell-free massive MIMO systems. By classifying users into near and far, the base station transmits an additional data symbol for each near user, superimposed on the signals from distributed access points. Successive interference cancellation is employed at near-user receivers to decode both symbols. The proposed strategy achieves the highest peak spectral efficiency while maintaining fairness at the cell edge, thereby outperforming all the existing network configurations in system capacity.

Trade-Offs in Decentralized Gigantic MIMO with Hard-Boundary Constraints

Juan Vidal Alegría, Joao Vieira, Ove Edfors

To maintain the antenna apertures offered by 5G massive MIMO systems operating at the sub-6GHz band, known as FR1, 6G base stations (BSs) using the upper-mid band, FR3, should increase the number of antennas by a factor 4-8, giving rise to gigantic MIMO. This poses challenges in…
