(2-D) massive MIMO systems with

of antennas. Instead of assuming independent fading between different transmit–receive antenna pairs, an array-structure-based physical channel model that characterizes the realistic scattering environments via the angles and gains associated with different propagation paths is studied. A 2-D

. Based on the spectrum analysis, the spatial spectrum of the received data is used to estimate the channel parameters, including

(incident azimuth and elevation angles) and the path amplitude of each resolvable path. Since the channel coefficients are estimated in spatial domain and the proposed 2-D FT can be realized by

, the computational complexity is reduced significantly. Simulation results are provided to verify the accuracy and the complexity of the proposed scheme. |
