On the Interference Cancellation by Reduced Channel Zero Forcing Class of Precodings in Massive MIMO Systems

In this paper, we study the interference cancellation capabilities of receivers and transmitters in multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems using theoretical calculations and numerical simulations in Quadriga. We study so-called Reduced Channel Zero-Forcing (RCZF) class of precoding as well as Minimum MSE Interference Rejection Combiner (MMSE-IRC) and QR Maximum Likelihood Detection (QR-MLD) receivers. Based on very simple but extremely useful algebraic manipulations, their asymptotical equivalence is proven analytically and demonstrated via simulations. Our theoretical and experimental results confirm that MMSE-IRC and QR-MLD receivers in combination with the RCZF precoding provide complete interference suppression asymptotically.
