In this paper, we investigate the downlink achievable ergodic spectral efficiency (SE) of a single-cell multi-user millimeter wave system, in which a uniform rectangular array is used at the base station (BS) to serve multiple single-antenna users. We adopt a three-dimensional channel model by considering both the azimuth and elevation dimensions under single-path propagation. We derive the achievable ergodic SE for this system in with maximum ratio transmission precoding. This analytical expression enables the accurate and quantitative evaluation of the effect of the number of BS antennas, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and the crosstalk (squared inner product between different steering vectors) which is a function of the angles of departure (AoD) of users and the inter-antenna spacing. Results show that the achievable ergodic SE logarithmically increases with the number of BS antennas and converges to a value in the high SNR regime. To improve the achievable ergodic SE, we also propose a user scheduling scheme based on feedback of users' AoD information and obtain the maximum achievable ergodic SE. Furthermore, we consider a dense user scenario where every user's AoD becomes nearly identical and then derive the system's minimum achievable SE.

Low cost and high efficiency, defined as energy efficiency (EE) and spectral efficiency (SE), have raised more and more attention in the fifth generation (5G) communication systems due to steadily rising hardware cost, energy consumption, and mobile traffic. This paper studies the hybrid architecture of multiuser massive MIMO systems, where the digital domain utilizes the zero-forcing (ZF) precoding scheme and the analog domain uses discrete Fourier transform (DFT) processing that significantly reduces hardware cost and energy consumption. We derive analytical expressions on the total achievable SE and EE, as well as offering insight into some engineering parameters in the system performance. Our aim is to achieve low cost and high efficiency massive MIMO system, with constraints on the overall transmit power, the number of users, and the number of radio frequency (RF) chains. Results exhibit that the total achievable SE of the hybrid architectures with DFT precessing is inferior to the full digital architectures and hybrid architectures with the ideal phase shifters, but the performance attenuation can be compensated by providing the more input SNR and higher number of RF chains. Moreover, we find that the total achievable EE of hybrid architectures with DFT precessing outperforms other massive MIMO architectures that include a full digital implementation, ideal phase shifters, and a switched network.

“…Thus, the detailed parameter set about the correlated fading channels can be found in the works [46][47][48]. 2 For simplicity, we use superscript * replace the different precoding schemes, which shall be denotes the "MRT", "ZF" or "MMSE", respectively.…”

We analyze the downlink multiuser precoding of massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system, where the base station (BS) has ideal channel state information (CSI) and adopts three types of different linear precoding schemes, i.e., maximum ratio transmission (MRT), zero-forcing (ZF), and minimum mean squared error (MMSE). Under a Rayleigh fading channel, we attain the exact expressions on the achievable rate for these three precoding schemes. Moreover, we provide several insights on the achievable rates and reveal the relation of the number of BS antennas, the number of users, and the input signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) with the achievable rates respectively. It is found in general that the achievable rate increases with the number of BS antennas and the input SNR. To be more specific, the MRT precoding scheme is much inferior to the ZF and MMSE precoding schemes and tends to be at a fixed rate at the high SNR case. On the contrary, the MRT precoding scheme outperforms ZF precoding schemes at the low SNR case. Moreover, the total achievable rate always does not increase with the number of users and the optimal number of users always exists for the ZF and MMSE precoding schemes.
