Separating highly correlated users can reduce the loss caused by spatial correlation (SC) in multiuser multiple‐input multiple‐output (MU‐MIMO) systems. However, few accurate analyses of the loss caused by SC have been conducted. In this study, we define signal‐to‐interference‐plus‐noise ratio (SINR) loss to characterize it in multiuser multiple‐input single‐output (MU‐MISO) systems, and use coefficient of correlation (CoC) to describe the SC between users. A formula is deduced to show the accurate relation between SINR loss and CoC. Based on this relation, we propose a user selection method that utilizes CoC to minimize the average SINR loss of users in massive MU‐MISO systems. Simulation results verify the correctness of the relation and show that the proposed user selection method is very effective at reducing the loss caused by SC in massive MU‐MISO systems.

Channel estimation is one of the most important parts in three-dimensional multiple-input multiple-output (3D MIMO) systems. The characteristics of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) channel and line-of-sight (LOS) channel are different in 3D MIMO systems. If the same channel estimation scheme is used in LOS case as NLOS, the performance of estimation will be bad. In outdoor propagation environment, 3D MIMO channels between closely located antennas share the same delay support in temporal domain. With those prior knowledge, in this study, a new channel estimation scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme can be divided into two processes. First, it is needed to identify the received sounding reference signal whether is LOS or NLOS propagation. Then, different enhanced DFT-based channel estimation schemes are proposed separately according to the identification results. Simulation results verify the proposed algorithm outperforms traditional discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based channel estimation. At signal-to-noise ratio of 20 dB, the proposed algorithm has 17.7 and 35.7% improvement in NLOS case and LOS case separately in terms of normalised mean squared error compared with traditional DFT-based channel estimation scheme, and is achieved with additional liner complexity.

In this paper, we propose to identify line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions based on CNN in urban 3D massive MIMO systems. The proposed method includes two parts. In the first part, given that the paths spread differently in time domain, we combine the normalized tap energy distribution on each antenna utilizing sounding reference signals (SRS), and construct the coordinated tap energy matrix. In the second part, we train a convolutional neural network (CNN) to analyze the matrix and identify the LOS/NLOS conditions. 3D massive MIMO channel model is considered in our simulation. Results show that error rates of the worst performance using proposed identification algorithm are lower than 2.4%, and a remarkable improvement is achieved compared to schemes that exploit the space-time-frequency channel correlation features.

... A different line of research has considered enhancing Channel Estimation Capacity from SRS information, e.g., by using deep learning tools, hence inherently improving the utilization of SRS sequences [36]. Also, multi-user grouping has been proposed as a strategy to minimize SRS resource requirements, by bringing together users based on channel state information [37], or channel correlation [38]. ...

... The role of small cells was investigated in [20] for optimizing downlink heterogeneous cellular networks under LOS and NLOS transmissions. Beside using a convolutional neural network (CNN) in a 3-D massive MIMO channel model, LOS detection [21,22] treated the problem as a binary hypothesis test. Based on time-space-frequency channel correlation, the system in [22] aimed to improve the new radio capacity and spectral efficiency of the 5G network. ...

... The optimal number of the OPSs, that can be exploited, was fixed in [15], where half of the CI is dedicated for the channel training, while the other half is reserved for data transmission that is uplink/downlink data transmission. Standing on the spatial correlation of the channel vectors of the UEs, [16] analyzed the relationship between the users' signal-to-noise-plus-interference ratio (SINR) and the degree of correlation between the channel vectors; therefore, by properly separating the UEs of high correlation, it is possible to reach an enhanced SINR; however, perfect channel state information (CSI) is assumed, which is practically questionable. ...

... To further reduce the complexity, a chordal distance method is proposed in [6] which performs selection in a way to maximize the channel matrix distance between the previously selected user and the new one. Its complexity order was regarded as the lowest one until maximum correlation value (MCV) method was not proposed in [7]. It utilizes correlation to measure the orthogonality degree between users and selects the one which has the highest value with already selected users. ...
