    Talk Title: (Network) Massive MIMO -“ Analysis for a Local Area Scenario

    Abstract: The performance of centralized and distributed deployments of massive MIMO in an office building is analyzed both with and without cooperation. It is shown that using twice as many base station antennas as data streams provides most of the massive MIMO benefits. A simple transmission scheme achieves user fairness and operates close to a capacity upper bound. The tradeoff between performance and cost for backhauling is evaluated by comparing cooperation of distributed base stations with a single central deployment. First results on the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) of massive MIMO arrays are presented.

    Biography: Stefan Dierks received the B.Sc. and the M.Sc. equivalent Diplom-Ingenieur degree in Electrical Engineering from Technical University Munich (TUM) in 2009 and 2011 respectively. During his studies he visited Universidad Nacional del Sur in Bahía Blanca, Argentina for one semester. Since 2011 he is working towards his Ph.D. degree at the Institute for Communications Engineering at TUM under the supervision of Prof. Kramer. His research interests include massive MIMO, LTE, 5G, EIRP of MIMO arrays, and Interference Alignment.
