Abstract-Coarse quantization at the base station (BS) of a massive multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless system promises significant power and cost savings. Coarse quantization also enables significant reductions of the raw analog-to-digital converter (ADC) data that must be transferred from a spatially-separated antenna array to the baseband processing unit. The theoretical limits as well as practical transceiver algorithms for such quantized MU-MIMO systems operating over frequency-flat, narrowband channels have been studied extensively. However, the practically relevant scenario where such communication systems operate over frequency-selective, wideband channels is less well understood. This paper investigates the uplink performance of a quantized massive MU-MIMO system that deploys orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) for wideband communication. We propose new algorithms for quantized maximum a-posteriori (MAP) channel estimation and data detection, and we study the associated performance/quantization trade-offs. Our results demonstrate that coarse quantization (e.g., four to six bits, depending on the ratio between the number of BS antennas and the number of users) in massive MU-MIMO-OFDM systems entails virtually no performance loss compared to the infinite-precision case at no additional cost in terms of baseband processing complexity.Index Terms-Analog-to-digital conversion, convex optimization, forward-backward splitting (FBS), frequency-selective channels, massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO), maximum a-posteriori (MAP) channel estimation, minimum mean-square error (MMSE) data detection, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), quantization.

Abstract-Spatial-Multiplexing aided Spatial Modulation (SMx-SM) is proposed, which intrinsically amalgamates the concept of Vertical Bell Labs Space-Time (V-BLAST) and Spatial Modulation (SM) to attain a high transmission rate, despite its low number of Radio Frequency (RF) chains at the transmitter. Specifically, in the SMx-SM scheme, the Transmit Antennas (TAs) are partitioned into groups and the SM technique is applied individually to each group. Furthermore, lowcomplexity threshold-aided Compressive Sensing (CS) based and Message Passing (MP) based detectors are derived for our SMx-SM system. Our simulation results show that the proposed SMx-SM system exhibits a better performance despite its lower complexity than the Conventional Generalized Spatial Modulation (C-GSM) system. More importantly, the proposed SMx-SM system is capable of providing considerable performance gains over the V-BLAST system at the same number of RF chains and throughput. Finally, an upper bound is derived for the Average Bit Error Probability (ABEP), which is confirmed by our simulation results.
