In particular, burst interference may occur only on data symbols but not on pilot symbols, which means that interference information cannot be premeasured. To cancel the burst interference, we first revisit the uplink multi-user system and develop a matrixform system model, where the covariance pattern and the low-rank property of the interference matrix is discussed. Then, we propose a turbo message passing based burst interference cancellation(TMP-BIC) algorithm to solve the data detection problem, where the constellation information of target data is fully exploited to refine its estimate. Furthermore, in the TMP-BIC algorithm, we design one module to cope with the interference matrix by exploiting its lowrank property. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can effectively mitigate the adverse effects of burst interference and approach the interference-free bound.展开更多

By means of the performance analysis, the closed-form expressions of average packet error rate(APER)and overall average spectral efficiency(ASE)of distributed massive MIMO systems with CLD are derived based on the conditional probability density function of each user’s approximate effective signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and the switching thresholds under the target packet loss rate(PLR)constraint.With these results,using the approximation of complementary error functions,the approximate APER and overall ASE are also deduced. Simulation results illustrate that the obtained theoretical ASE and APER can match the corresponding simulations well. Besides,the target PLR requirement is satisfied,and the distributed massive MIMO systems offer an obvious performance gain over the co-located massive MIMO systems.展开更多

However, the excessively high computational complexity of the signal detection in massive MIMO systems imposes a significant challenge for practical hardware implementations. In this paper, we propose a novel minimum mean square error(MMSE) signal detection using the accelerated overrelaxation(AOR) iterative method without complicated matrix inversion, which is capable of reducing the overall complexity of the classical MMSE algorithm by an order of magnitude. Simulation results show that the proposed AOR-based method can approach the conventional MMSE signal detection with significant complexity reduction.展开更多
