Abstract
Recently, multi-user massive MIMO (MU-Massive MIMO) network has attracted a lot of attention as a technology to accommodate explosively increasing mobile data traffic. However, the MU-Massive MIMO network causes a tremendous hardware complexity in a base station and computational complexity to select optimal set of users. In this paper, we thus propose a simple algorithm for selecting antennas and users while reducing the hardware and computational complexities simultaneously. The proposed scheme has a computational complexity of $O((N-S_a+1){\times}min(S_a,K))$, which is significantly reduced compared to the complexity of optimal scheme based on Brute-Force searching, $$O\left({_N}C_S_a\sum_{i=1}^{min(S_a,K)}_KC_i\right)$$, where N, $S_a$, and K denote the number of total transmit antennas, the number of selected antennas, and the number of all users, respectively.
