Abstract

To overcome the pilot pollution of large-scale multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems caused by the repeated use of pilots in adjacent cells, a pilot assignment method based on time-shifting and space-division is proposed. Then, channel estimation error is analyzed. We derive the closed expression of the uplink and downlink rates to investigate the performance of the proposed scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can mitigate pilot contamination greatly and improve system performance.
