The package contains a simulation environment, based on Matlab, that can be used to reproduce all the simulation results in the monograph. We hope that the code will support you in the learning of the Massive MIMO topic and also serve as a baseline for further research endeavors. *We encourage you to also perform reproducible research!*

## Abstract of the Monograph

## Abstract of the Book

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is one of the most promising technologies for the next generation of wireless communication networks because it has the potential to provide game-changing improvements in spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE). This monograph summarizes many years of research insights in a clear and self-contained way and provides the reader with the necessary knowledge and mathematical tools to carry out independent research in this area. Starting from a rigorous definition of Massive MIMO, the monograph covers the important aspects of channel estimation, SE, EE, hardware efficiency (HE), and various practical deployment considerations.

This code package contains 74 Matlab scripts, 29 Matlab functions, and 7 binary files with Matlab data.

Each script is used to reproduce a particular simulation-generated figure in the monograph. The scripts are named using the convention sectionX_figureY, which is interpreted as the script that reproduces Figure X.Y. A few scripts are instead named as sectionX_figureY_Z and will then generate both Figure X.Y and Figure X.Z.

The functions are used by the scripts to carry out certain tasks, such as initiating a simulation setup, generating channel correlation matrices, generating channel realizations, computing channel estimates, computing SEs, computing the power consumption, etc.
