Rethinking Energy Efficiency in Cell-Free Massive MIMO: The Role of Processing and Optical Fronthaul

Ozan Alp Topal, Özlem Tuğfe Demir, Cicek Cavdar

Cell-free massive MIMO promises uniformly high performance by combining densely distributed radio units, coherent transmission, and centralized processing. Unlike earlier radio generations, it depends on dense fronthaul connectivity and a virtualized cloud-RAN architecture. In th…Read more
