Abstract :
To support cell-edge users with certain quality-of-service (QoS), base stations (BSs) may need to exchange their channel state information (CSI), which would not be practical in a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. In this paper, joint power control is considered for QoS when noncooperative beamforming is used, which results in a low overhead to exchange limited CSI between BSs. For joint power control, we derive bounds on signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) in terms of slow-fading coefficients. Due to joint power control, a better performance is achieved.
