摘要:Massive multi-input multioutput (MIMO) is a
promising technique for the next generation of wireless communication
networks. In this paper, we focus on using the ray-launching
based channel simulation to model massive MIMO
channels. We propose one deterministic model and one statistical
model for indoor massive MIMO channels, both based on ray-launching
simulation. We further propose a simplified version
for each model to improve computational efficiency. We simulate
the models in indoor wireless network deployment environments
and compare the simulation results with measurements. Analysis
and comparison show that these ray-launching based simulation
models are efficient and accurate for massive MIMO channel
modelling, especially with application to indoor network planning
and optimisation.
