Massive MU-MIMO-OFDM uplink with direct RF-sampling and 1-Bit ADCs
Paper i proceeding, 2019

Advances in analog-to-digital converter (ADC) technology have opened up the possibility to directly digitize wideband radio frequency (RF) signals, avoiding the need for analog down- conversion. In this work, we consider an orthogonal frequency- division multiplexing (OFDM)-based massive multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) uplink system that relies on direct RF-sampling at the base station and digitizes the received RF signals with 1-bit ADCs. Using Bussgang's theorem, we provide an analytical expression for the error-vector magnitude (EVM) achieved by digital down-conversion and zero-forcing combining. Our results demonstrate that direct RF-sampling 1-bit ADCs enables low EVM and supports high-order constellations in the massive MU-MIMO- OFDM uplink.
