Functional Split of Zero-Forcing Based Massive MIMO for Fronthaul Load Reduction
The evolution towards centralized radio access network (C-RAN) for 5G is driven by the need for improved network performance and reduced total-cost-of-ownership (TCO). In C-RAN, physically separated remote radio units (RRUs) and baseband units (BBUs) are connected via fronthaul (FH) links, which are...
