Massive MIMO With Max-Min Power Control in Line-of-Sight Propagation Environment.

Massive MIMO relies on the asymptotic orthogonality of channel vectors to different users. For M service antennas, the expected correlation between a pair of channel vectors under line-of-sight (LoS) conditions decreases at least as fast as log(M)/M, while in independent and identically distributed (iid) Rayleigh fading, it decreases much slower at 1/√M, but the variance is higher under LoS.
