Abstract

The sixth generation (6G) mobile networks need to meet various performance requirements such as the number of connections, latency, reliability, and energy efficiency. In particular, for the Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios with short packet transmission, it is necessary to analyze and optimize various performances while achieving massive connections. In addition, practical constraints (such as imperfect channel state information, limitations of classical Shannon’s capacity, inter-cell interference, massive user interference, etc.) further aggravate the difficulties of theoretical analysis and performance improvement. We propose a performance analysis and optimization strategy for short packet transmission systems based on cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CF mMIMO), which points out the idea of improving system performance with large-scale connections under practical constraints. Furthermore, with the combination of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) technology and finite blocklength (FBL) information theory, we derive the closed-form expressions of downlink signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), achievable data rate, and energy collected based on CF mMIMO. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, which is also expected to support massive ultra-reliable and low latency communications (mURLLC) with ultra-high energy efficiency or spectral efficiency in the future.
