This paper proposes a unified transmission strategy for multiuser time division duplex (TDD)/frequency division duplex (FDD) massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems, including uplink (UL)/downlink (DL) channel estimation and user scheduling for data transmission. With the aid of antenna array theory and array signal processing, we build a spatial basis expansion model (SBEM) to represent the UL/DL channels with far fewer parameter dimensions. Hence, both the UL and DL channel estimations of multiusers can be carried out with a small amount of training resource, which significantly reduces the training overhead and feedback cost. Meanwhile, the pilot contamination problem in the UL training is immediately relieved by exploiting the spatial information of users. To enhance the spectral efficiency, we also design a greedy user scheduling scheme during the data transmission period. Compared …
