Access Point Switch ON/OFF Strategies for Green Cell-Free Massive MIMO Networking
The combination of user-centric network densification and distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) operation has recently brought along a new paradigm in the wireless communications arena, referred to as cell-free massive MIMO networking.

Pilot Power Control for Cell-Free Massive MIMO [PDF]
In this correspondence paper, we consider a cell-free massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system where access points (APs) serve a much smaller number of users under the time-division duplex operation. The APs first estimate the channels via the uplink training phase.

Cell-Free Massive MIMO: Uniformly great service for everyone [PDF]
We consider the downlink of Cell-Free Massive MIMO systems, where a very large number of distributed access points (APs) simultaneously serve a much smaller number of users. Each AP uses local channel estimates obtained from received uplink pilots and applies conjugate beamforming to transmit data to the users.
