A Pilot Allocation Algorithm Based on Coalitional Game Theory for Distributed MIMO Systems

With the advent of the 5G era, the number of user terminals has increased dramatically. However, the limitation of pilot resources results in pilot reuse among user terminals, which makes the performance of massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems constrained by pilot contamination. In...
