The commercial fifth-generation (5G) wireless communications networks have already been
deployed with the aim of providing high data rates. However, the rapid growth in the number …

In recent times, the rapid growth in mobile subscriptions and the associated demand for high
data rates fuels the need for a robust wireless network design to meet the required capacity …

Imagine a coverage area where each mobile device is communicating with a preferred set of
wireless access points (among many) that are selected based on its needs and cooperate to …

Multiple antenna technologies have attracted much research interest for several decades
and have gradually made their way into mainstream communication systems. Two main …

Cell-free Massive MIMO is considered as a promising technology for satisfying the
increasing number of users and high rate expectations in beyond-5G networks. The key idea …

The combination of cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems along
with millimeter-wave (mmWave) bands is indeed one of most promising technological …

In this correspondence, an efficient pilot assignment scheme based on tabu search (TS) is
proposed to mitigate the severe pilot contamination effect caused by pilot reuse in cell-free …

In this paper, we mainly study how to improve the secure transmission performance of cell-
free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems by using location technology. In …

This paper considers an uplink cell-free massive multi-input multi-output (mMIMO) system
with multi-antenna access points (APs) and users, assuming low-resolution analog-to-digital …

One of the most promising technologies to be employed in beyond 5G networks is based on
the concept of cell-free (CF) massive MIMO, in which a predetermined set of access points …
