Optimizing 6G Networks: Impact of Massive MIMO on Throughput in 6G Communications
摘要
Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO), a transformative technology for next-generation mobile networks, significantly enhances data rates, spectral efficiency, and network capacity by utilizing a large number of antennas at both the base station and user equipment. In this paper we investigate the impact of massive MIMO configurations on the throughput of the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) in 6G link-level communications. Our study employs various antenna configurations to analyze their effects on throughput under different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions, especially in very noisy transmission case. The results indicate that increasing the number of antennas substantially improves system performance, achieving maximum throughput at lower SNR values. This underscores the importance of massive MIMO in realizing the ambitious goals of 6G networks.
