Abstract

This communication attempts to characterize the performance metrics of downlink Massive MU-MIMO systems impaired by cochannel interference and additive noise over a Rayleigh fading environment. We obtain close-form solutions for the probability density function of signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and the sum ergodic capacity. The proposed work structures SINR in a quadratic form and thereby imposes a condition on its signal and interference power for a large transmit antenna diversity order; the conditional form is then analyzed using a distance correlation metric. Eventually, the sum ergodic capacity is expressed in a close-form by means of a residue theory approach and validated using the Monte Carlo simulation means.

Notes

  1. A special case of residue theory is generalized from [9] as

    $$\begin{aligned} \frac{1}{2\pi } \int _{-\infty }^{\infty }\frac{e^{j \omega p}}{a+ j \omega }~d\omega = e^{-a p} u(a p),\quad a > 0 . \end{aligned}$$
