However, the large number of antennas at the transmitter imposes high computational burdens and high hardware overloads. In line with the above, in this paper we propose a low complexity antenna selection (AS) scheme which selects the antennas that maximize constructive interference between the users. Our analyses show that the proposed AS algorithm, in combination with a simple matched filter (MF) precoder at the transmitter, is able to achieve better performances than systems equipped with a more complex channel inversion (CI) precoder and computationally expensive AS techniques. First, we give an analytical definition of constructive and destructive interference, based on the phase of the received signals from phase-shifted-keying (PSK) modulated transmissions. Then, we introduce the proposed antenna selection algorithm, which identifies the antenna subset with the highest constructive interference, maximizing the power received by the user. In our studies, we derive the computational burden of the proposed technique with a rigorous and thorough analysis and we identify a closed form expression of the upper bound received power at the user side. In addition, we evaluate in detail the power benefits of the proposed transmission scheme by defining an efficiency metric based on the achieved throughput. The results presented in this paper prove that antenna selection and green radio concepts can be jointly used for power efficient M-MIMO, as they lead to significant power savings and complexity reductions. date: 2016-08 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TVT.2015.2477457 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Article verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1055558 doi: 10.1109/TVT.2015.2477457 lyricists_name: Amadori, Pierluigi lyricists_name: Masouros, Christos lyricists_id: PVAMA53 lyricists_id: CMASO14 actors_name: Amadori, Pierluigi actors_id: PVAMA53 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology volume: 65 number: 8 pagerange: 5944-5958 issn: 0018-9545 citation: Amadori, PV; Amadori, PV; Masouros, C; (2016) Interference driven antenna selection for Massive Multi-User MIMO.
