Coverage Analysis of Multi-Stream MIMO HetNets With MRC Receivers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Most of the current research on the coverage performance of multi-stream MIMO heterogeneous networks (HetNets) has focused on a single data-stream. This does not always provide accurate results as our analysis show the cross-stream correlation due to interference can greatly affect the coverage performance. This paper analyzes the coverage probability in such systems, and studies the impact of cross-stream correlation. Specifically, we focus on the max-SIR cell association policy and leverage stochastic geometry to study scenarios, whereby a receiver is considered in the coverage, if all of its data-streams are successfully decodeable. Assuming open-loop maximum ratio combining (MRC) at receivers, we consider the cases where partial channel state information is available at the receiver. We then obtain an upper-bound on the coverage and formulate cross-stream SIR correlation. We further show that approximating such systems based on fully-correlated (non-correlated) data-streams results in a slight underestimation (substantial overestimation) of the coverage performance. Our results provide insights on the multiplexing regimes where densification improves the coverage performance and spectral efficiency. We also compare MRC with more complex zero-forcing receiver and provide quantitative insights on the design tradeoffs. Our analysis is validated via extensive simulations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
