We propose a novel time‐shift pilot scheme to mitigate the pilot contamination in large‐scale
multicell multiuser MIMO (LS‐MIMO) systems. In the proposed scheme, the length of the …

Large-scale multi-cell multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (LS-MIMO) systems can
greatly increase the spectral efficiency. But the performance of these systems is deteriorated …

This paper concerns the uplink of multicell multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
systems. To tackle the effect of pilot contamination that is generally viewed as a bottleneck in …

A large-scale MIMO multi-cell system is considered where the desired cell bears pilot
contamination. Multiple neighbor cells and the desired cell use the same pilot position to …

A non-reused pilot (NRP) design scheme is presented for Large-scale multi-cell multiuser
multiple-input multiple-output (LS-MIMO) systems. As the users at the cell edge suffer from …

Although the benefits of precoding and combining data signals are widely recognized, the
potential of these techniques for pilot transmission is not fully understood. This is particularly …

To alleviate pilot contamination for multi‐cell large‐scale multiple‐input multiple‐output
(MIMO) systems, here the authors propose a constellation coordination scheme according to …

Massive MIMO is one of the key components in the technologies of the next generation
wireless communication network; the fifth generation (5G). Although massive MIMO is …

We investigate pilot contamination problem for very large MIMO multi-cell TDD system. The
asymptotic sum rate of two typical precoding schemes, ie, the single-cell zero forcing (ZF) …

In this work, we investigate the pilot contamination problem in multi-cell massive multi-input
multi-output (MIMO) systems. The conventional approaches to address pilot contamination …
