Sommario
On October 14th, 2021 at 5:30 pm, it will take place a new appointment of the “Thursday meetings – A glance to the future at cocktail-hour” organized by IEIIT – CNR Institute.
The series of fortnightly meetings deal with specific themes connected to IEIIT – CNR institute with transversal vision through application domains and technological areas with particular attention to their evolutions.
The new seminar will be held by Prof. Luca Sanguinetti (Pisa University) on the following subject: "MIMO Technology for 5G and Beyond".
Over the past decade, Massive MIMO has gone from being a wild multi-antenna concept for improving the data rates in future cellular networks to mainstream technology. Massive MIMO is a core technology in 5G or, at least, this is what operators and manufacturers are claiming. But how close to the theoretical predictions will the 5G Massive MIMO technology actually perform? In this talk, we will first answer this question and thereby reveal the main weaknesses of the MIMO technology in 5G. We will then take a look at potential technology evolutions that might address these weaknesses in beyond 5G networks. Among the different technologies, a promising one is represented by Cell-free Massive MIMO. The talk will will identify the fundamental limits that call for a shift towards the cell-free paradigm, and will explain the benefits of the user-centric cell-free operation compared to conventional cellular operation.
