Abstract:

The key performance indicators (KPIs) of the sixth generation (6G) will increase by orders of magnitude compared to the fifth generation (5G), promising extreme connectivity performance with Tbps-scale data rate, Kbps/Hz-scale spectral efficiency (SE) and \mu \text {s} -level latency. Cell-free massive MIMO (CF-mMIMO) with rich spatial dimension resources is expected to be a key architecture to realize \text {TK}\mu extreme connectivity, but the existing research has not yet given a compact and closed-form approximation to describe the relationship between the spatial dimension and system performance, which makes it difficult to evaluate the KPIs of \text {TK}\mu intuitively. This paper derives explicit closed-form expressions for the relationship between system performance and system configuration parameters for finite blocklength CF-mMIMO systems and analyzes the relationship between system performance and spatial dimensions. Based on this, we perform parameter selection and performance evaluation of specific implementations in the three \text {TK}\mu KPIs in CF-mMIMO systems. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results show that increasing the spatial degree of freedom (DoF) and deploying antennas more dispersedly can realize latency reduction while guaranteeing the system performance, and the joint collaboration of multi-users and multiple access points (APs) with large DoFs can achieve a continuous increase in SE and data rate.
