Performance of One-Bit Massive MIMO with Oversampling under Adjacent Channel Interference

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have attracted much attention lately due to the many advantages they provide over single- antenna systems. Owing to the many antennas, low- cost implementation and low power consumption per antenna are desired. To that end, massive MIMO structures with one-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADC) have been investigated in many studies. However, the effect of a strong interferer in the adjacent band on one-bit quantized massive MIMO systems have not been examined yet. In this study, we analyze the performance of uplink massive MIMO with one-bit ADCs under frequency selective fading with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in the perfect and imperfect receiver channel state information cases. We derive analytical expressions for the bit error rate and ergodic rate. We show that the interfering band can be suppressed by increasing the number of antennas or the oversampling rate when a zero-forcing receiver is employed.
