Abstract
This paper investigates the performance of bidirectional dynamic networks (BDN) with massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. In BDN, dynamic allocation of the number of uplink and downlink remote radio heads (RRHs) is proposed, which offers a flexible solution to balance the data traffic asymmetry without requiring the time synchronization. Intuitively, the interference between the downlink and uplink RRHs is one of the main challenges in BDN. However, we prove that the massive MIMO strategy can effectively reduce a certain portion of the downlink-to-uplink interference. We derive the approximations of the achievable uplink and downlink rates using a maximum ratio transmission (MRT) precoder and a maximum ratio combination (MRC) receiver. Based on the asymptotic analysis, we exploit the power scaling laws that both the uplink and downlink power should scale down to 1/M (M is the antenna number) to ensure a desirable uplink or downlink rate. Furthermore, simulations show that BDN outperforms traditional time division duplex (TDD) systems in terms of the spectral efficiency.
