Channel Hardening-Exploiting Message Passing (CHEMP) Receiver in Large-Scale MIMO Systems [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a MIMO receiver algorithm that exploits {\em channel hardening} that occurs in large MIMO channels. Channel hardening refers to the phenomenon where the off-diagonal terms of the ${\bf H}^H{\bf H}$ matrix become increasingly ...
