摘要:

由于对\emph{green}无线通信的需求不断增长,以及\emph{cell-free}(CF)大规模多输入多输出(MIMO)系统的优势,我们专注于其下行链路的设计,以获得最佳的\emph{energy efficiency}(EE)。为了解决这个基本问题,我们假设每个接入点(AP)部署有多个天线,并在相同的时间-频率资源上为多个用户提供服务,而AP是泊松点过程(PPP)分布,这实际上接近其机会空间随机性。依靠随机几何的工具,我们推导出下行链路平均可达频谱效率(SE)的下限。接下来,我们考虑一个现实的CF大规模MIMO系统的功耗模型。这些步骤使制定一个易于处理的优化问题,每单位面积的下行链路EE,这导致在分析确定的最佳导频重用因子,AP密度,AP天线和用户的数量,最大化EE。值得注意的是,每单位面积的EE,而不仅仅是EE是必要的度量来描述CF系统,我们满足多点传输。因此,我们提供了有用的设计准则CF大规模MIMO系统的基本系统变量对最佳EE。其中的结果,我们观察到,较低的导频复用因子,使干扰的减少,随后,更高的EE到一个特定的值。总体而言,它表明,CF大规模MIMO技术是一个有前途的候选人,为下一代网络同时实现高SE和EE每单位面积。

英文摘要:

Motivated by the ever-growing demand for \emph{green} wireless communications and the advantages of \emph{cell-free} (CF) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, we focus on the design of their downlink for optimal \emph{energy efficiency} (EE). To address this fundamental topic, we assume that each access point (AP) is deployed with multiple antennas and serves multiple users on the same time-frequency resource while the APs are Poisson point process (PPP) distributed, which approaches realistically their opportunistic spatial randomness. Relied on tools from stochastic geometry, we derive a lower bound on the downlink average achievable spectral efficiency (SE). Next, we consider a realistic power consumption model for CF massive MIMO systems. These steps enable the formulation of a tractable optimization problem concerning the downlink EE per unit area, which results in the analytical determination of the optimal pilot reuse factor, the AP density, and the number of AP antennas and users that maximize the EE. Notably, the EE per unit area and not just the EE is the necessary metric to describe CF systems, where we meet multi-point transmission. Hence, we provide useful design guidelines for CF massive MIMO systems relating to fundamental system variables towards optimal EE. Among the results, we observe that a lower pilot reuse factor enables a decrease of the interference, and subsequently, higher EE up to a specific value. Overall, it is shown that the CF massive MIMO technology is a promising candidate for next-generation networks achieving simultaneously high SE and EE per unit area.
