Quantized Uplink Massive MIMO Systems With Linear Receivers
Paper in proceeding, 2020

This paper considers the uplink of a single-cell multiuser massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Each receiver antenna of the base station is assumed to be equipped with a pair of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to quantize the real and imaginary part of the received signal. We propose a novel Bussgang-based weighted zero-forcing (B-WZF) receiver, which distinguishes the clipping and granular distortion. Numerical results demonstrate that for sufficiently high SNR and users that do not experience deep large-scale fading, the B-WZF brings significant performance gain over existing linear receivers in the literature, when the training sequence length is higher than the number of users.
