Description
Summary:Distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (D-MIMO) has been identified as a promising technology to meet the service requirements of 6 G wireless networks and beyond. The coordination between a massive number of distributed antennas introduces stiff challenges and requires a substantial amount of computing resources that must be put together with careful algorithm-architecture codesign. The process places a premium on flexibility, and toward this end the current paper presents an application-specific instruction set processor (ASIP) utilizing single instruction multiple data (SIMD), allied with programmer-visible hardware accelerators and a specialized memory subsystem, and employed in distributed and scalable massive MIMO systems. The chip is fabricated using the GF22nm FDX technology.
