Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, characterized by a large number of antennas at the transmitter, are expected to become a key enabler for spectral efficiency improvement. In massive MIMO systems, thanks to the orthogonality between different users' channels, high spectral and energy efficiency can be achieved through simple signal processing techniques. However, to get such advantages, accurate channel state information (CSI) needs to be available, and acquiring CSI in massive MIMO systems is challenging due to the increased channel dimension. In frequency division duplexing (FDD) systems, where CSI at the transmitter is achieved through downlink training and uplink feedback, the overhead for the training and feedback increases proportionally to the number of antennas, and the resource for data transmission becomes scarce in massive MIMO systems. In time division duplexing (TDD) systems, where the channel reciprocity holds and the downlink CSI can be obtained through uplink training, pilot contamination due to correlated pilots becomes a performance bottleneck when the number of antennas increases.
In this dissertation, I propose efficient CSI acquisition techniques for various massive MIMO systems. First, I develop a downlink training technique for FDD massive MIMO systems, which estimates the downlink channel with small overhead. To this end, compressed sensing tools are utilized, and the training overhead can be highly reduced by exploiting the previous channel information. Next, a limited feedback scheme is developed for FDD massive MIMO systems. The proposed scheme reduces the feedback overhead using a dimension reduction technique that exploits spatial and temporal correlation of the channel. Lastly, I analyze the effect of pilot contamination, which has been regarded as a performance bottleneck in multi-cell massive MIMO systems, and propose two uplink training strategies. An iterative pilot design scheme is developed for small networks, and a scalable training framework is also proposed for networks with many cells.1 Introduction 1

Distributed Compressive CSIT Estimation and Feedback for FDD Multi-user Massive MIMO Systems
To fully utilize the spatial multiplexing gains or array gains of massive
MIMO, the channel state information must be obtained at the transmitter side
(CSIT). However, conventional CSIT estimation approaches are not suitable for
FDD massive MIMO systems because of the overwhelming training and feedback
overhead. In this paper, we consider multi-user massive MIMO systems and deploy
the compressive sensing (CS) technique to reduce the training as well as the
feedback overhead in the CSIT estimation. The multi-user massive MIMO systems
exhibits a hidden joint sparsity structure in the user channel matrices due to
the shared local scatterers in the physical propagation environment. As such,
instead of naively applying the conventional CS to the CSIT estimation, we
propose a distributed compressive CSIT estimation scheme so that the compressed
measurements are observed at the users locally, while the CSIT recovery is
performed at the base station jointly. A joint orthogonal matching pursuit
recovery algorithm is proposed to perform the CSIT recovery, with the
capability of exploiting the hidden joint sparsity in the user channel
matrices. We analyze the obtained CSIT quality in terms of the normalized mean
absolute error, and through the closed-form expressions, we obtain simple
insights into how the joint channel sparsity can be exploited to improve the
CSIT recovery performance.Comment: 16 double-column pages, accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions
