Statistical multiplexing and pilot optimization in fronthaul-constrained massive MIMO

Abstract Cloud-radio access network (C-RAN) has been an attractive solution in the recent years for the future generation mobile networks due to its promising benefits. However, the transport link between the remote radio unit (RRU) and the baseband unit (BBU), known as fronthaul (FH), imposes strin...
