Meeting 5G network requirements with Massive MIMO

Abstract

Massive MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output) radios are the leading radio solution for new 5G deployments on mid-band TDD spectrum. The ability to use a larger number of radio chains - 16–64, for example, compared with the 2–8 typically used in conventional radio solutions - makes it possible for communication service providers (CSPs) to benefit significantly from multi-antenna techniques.
