LMMSE Processing for Cell-free Massive MIMO with Radio Stripes and MRC Fronthaul
read the original abstract
Cell-free massive MIMO provides ubiquitous connectivity for multiple users, and implementation using radio stripes is very efficient. Compared with collocated massive MIMO, the major cost includes fronthaul overheads and AP hardware. Maximum ratio combination (MRC) achieves a low fronthaul loading and low-cost AP, but the performance is bad. This letter proposes to implement a quasi-LMMSE (Q-LMMSE) processing using MRC fronthaul design. Q-LMMSE is derived from a standard LMMSE, which gains interference information from MRC signal via singular value decomposition. Simulation results show that the proposed Q-LMMSE increases the spectral efficiency by several times using same MRC fronthaul.
