Performance Analysis of Massive MIMO Multi-Way Relay Networks With Low-Resolution ADCs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High power consumption and hardware cost have motivated using low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) for practical massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) systems. In this paper, we consider a general mMIMO multi-way relaying system with a multi-level mixed-ADC architecture in which each antenna is connected to an ADC pair with an arbitrary resolution. By leveraging on Bussgang's decomposition theorem and Lloyd-Max algorithm for quantization, tight closed-form approximations are derived for the average achievable rates of zero-forcing (ZF) relaying considering both perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI). To handle such a challenging setup, we develop a novel method for the achievable rate analysis using distributions of the singular values of Gaussian matrices and properties of Haar matrices. We demonstrate that the average achievable rate has an almost linear relation with the square of the average of quantization coefficients pertaining to the ADC resolution profile. In addition, in the medium to high SNR region, the ADC resolutions have a more significant effect on the rate compared to the number of antennas. Our work also reveals that the performance gap between the perfect and imperfect CSI cases is smaller for lower ADC resolutions, hence imperfect CSI is better tolerated at lower resolutions.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
