A Grant-Based Random Access Protocol in Extra-Large Massive MIMO System
Extra-large massive multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems is a new concept, where spatial non-stationarities allow activate a high number of user equipments (UEs). This letter focuses on a grant-based random access (RA) approach in the novel XL-MIMO channel scenarios. Modifications in the classical Strongest User Collision Resolution (SUCRe) protocol have been …
