Favorable Propagation for Massive MIMO with Circular and Cylindrical Antenna Arrays
Massive MIMO systems with uniform circular and cylindrical antenna arrays are studied. Favorable propagation property is rigorously shown to hold asymptotically in LOS environment for a fixed antenna spacing and under some mild conditions. The analysis is based on a novel method using a Bessel function expansion, a new bounding technique and a simplified representation of inter-user interference for array geometries obeying Kronecker structure.
