Partial pilot allocation scheme in Multi-Cell Massive MIMO systems for pilot contamination reduction

Inter-cell interference has been identified as one of the major challenges of multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO)-enabled cellular systems. This problem occurs when the same pilot sets are reused across adjacent cells to save bandwidth for data transmission. As a result, so-called pilot contaminat...
