Abstract
In this paper, we analyze the achievable rate of the uplink of a single-cell multi-user distributed massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system. The multiple users are equipped with single antenna and the base station (BS) is equipped with a large number of distributed antennas. We derive an analytical expression for the asymptotic ergodic achievable rate of the system under zero-forcing (ZF) detector. In particular, we consider circular antenna array, where the distributed BS antennas are located evenly on a circle, and derive an analytical expression and closed-form tight bounds for the achievable rate of an arbitrarily located user. Subsequently, closed-form bounds on the average achievable rate per user are obtained under the assumption that the users are uniformly located in the cell. Based on the bounds, we can understand the behavior of the system rate with respect to…
