Suppressing Pilot Contamination in Massive MIMO Downlink via Cross-Frame Scheduling

A novel downlink scheduling strategy for time-division duplexing massive multiple-input multiple-output networks is proposed to relieve the pilot contamination. Specifically, users of slow-channel variation and simultaneous uplink pilot transmission are scheduled in different downlink subframes for...
