Abstract

MIMO or Multiple- input- Multiple- output is one of the latest technologies, which has been developed to combat the major problems encountering wireless communications. MIMO was developed to improve communication's capacity, range, reliability, throughput, to overcome bandwidth limitations, and to combat fading. This paper investigates the performance of massive MIMO which is the core of the fifth generation that is expected to be released by 2020. Massive MIMO is a promising technology that allows the use of hundreds of antennas at the base station to achieve optimal reliability, capacity, and throughput. However, it suffers from multiple limitations in the detection phase. A thorough discussion is given on the advantages that massive MIMO offers and any limitations it has. Additionally, using simulations, a comparison between the two main detection algorithm used to overcome those limitations is presented.
