Effects of antenna array characteristics on in-band full-duplex relays for broadband cellular communications

This paper considers a broadband multicell system with key characteristics that base-stations and relays employ beamforming via large antenna arrays, as well as in-band full duplex relay operation. The signal to interference plus noise ratio gain (which is in excess of the maximum required for such...
