Fractional pilot reuse and max k‐cut based pilot decontamination scheme for multi‐cell TDD massive MIMO systems

Abstract In multi‐cell massive multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) cellular networks, pilot contamination (PC) caused by ineluctable pilot reuse severely restricts the system performance in the effectiveness and reliability of transmission. To deal with this problem, an efficient pilot assignment...
