报告摘要（Abstract）：

We present a new transmission strategy for the multiuser massive MIMO systems, including uplink/downlink channel estimation and user scheduling for data transmission. This scheme exploits the array structure as well as the spatial information of the incoming signal at BS, and generates an alternative low rank signaling model, named as spatial basis expansion model (SBEM). The basis vectors of SBEM are formulated from discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) vectors and can be efficiently deployed by the fast Fourier transform (FFT). With SBEM, both uplink and downlink channel estimation of multiusers can be carried out with very few amount of training resources, which significantly reduces the training overhead and the feedback cost for the downlink training. Moreover, the channel estimation of different users could be spatially separated from orthogonal beams, which immediately relieve the pilot contamination problem. Compared to the existing low rank modeling, the newly proposed SBEM does not require knowledge of massive channel statistics and does not suffer from high complex eigenvalue decomposition of the massive covariance matrices. Another key benefit of SBEM is that due to reciprocity of electromagnetic waves, the beam directions are also reciprocal for uplink and downlink transmission. Hence, SBEM is not only applicable for TDD system but may also present a low complexity solution for the FDD systems. Lastly, some efficient user scheduling algorithms for data transmissions are designed based on different optimization criterions.
