What is multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) in 5G?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

My friend:<\/em>\u00a0Hi Ibrahim, I have a question for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me:<\/em>\u00a0Go ahead, please.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My friend:<\/em>\u00a0During the trial of MU-MIMO currently running at one site, we didn\u2019t notice an increase of user peak throughput, why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me:<\/em>\u00a0Actually, we aren’t expecting increase of peak user throughput rather than increase of cell throughput which already was higher as simply MU-MIMO means assigning same resource blocks to different users, so spectral efficiency increases and cell capacity increases also. For example, spectral efficiency can be doubled if same resource blocks are allocated to 2 UEs and spectral efficiency can be 4 times if same resource blocks are allocated by 4 UEs and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My friend:<\/em>\u00a0But, how can we allocate same resource blocks to different users? They will interfere each other, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me:<\/em>\u00a0Yes, you are right, that\u2019s why those users should be distributed across the cell area and thanks to beamforming, so each user should be served by separate beam and so beamforming can generate significant performance gains from MU-MIMO because the highly directional beams are able to increase the spatial separation between UEs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My friend:<\/em>\u00a0Thanks a lot.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please share this information to spread\u00a0it and make sure it is clear for everyone, and check here our\u00a0last post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
