Cell-Free and User-Centric Massive MIMO Architectures for Reliable Communications in Indoor Factory Environments

Factory automation is one of the use cases for 5G-and-beyond mobile networks where strict requirements in terms of latency, availability and reliability are required. In this paper, we investigate the potentials of massive MIMO in delivering those promises for industrial automation. Namely, communic...
