This paper analytically reviews the performance of massive multiple input
multiple output (MIMO) system for communication in highly mobility
scenarios like high speed Railways. As popularity of high speed train
increasing day by day, high data rate wireless communication system for
high speed train is extremely required. 5G wireless communication systems
must be designed to meet the requirement of high speed broadband services
at speed of around 500 km/h, which is the expected speed achievable by HSR
systems, at a data rate of 180 Mbps or higher. Significant challenges of high
mobility communications are fast time-varying fading, channel estimation
errors, doppler diversity, carrier frequency offset, inter carrier interference,
high penetration loss and fast and frequent handovers. Therefore, crucial
requirement to design high mobility communication channel models or
systems prevails. Recently, massive MIMO techniques have been proposed
to significantly improve the performance of wireless networks for upcoming
5G technology. Massive MIMO provide high throughput and high energy
efficiency in wireless communication channel. In this paper, key findings,
challenges and requirements to provide high speed wireless communication
onboard the high speed train is pointed out after thorough literature review.
In last, future research scope to bridge the research gap by designing efficient

1. INTRODUCTION
In massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system, a base station mounted more than
hundred antennas provide simultaneous coverage to multiple users. Massive MIMO systems are nowadays
emerged as newly designed cellular network architecture with numerous interesting features like achievable
capacity can be increased by merely mounting additional antennas to currently active cell sites, a greater
number of antennas significantly reduce uplink and downlink transmit power. Energy conservation is
extremely necessary in existing scenario of the world and as per survey done in 2013, 69 Giga Watts power
consumed world-wide telecommunication networks i.e. equivalent to power consumed by 12 New York
cities in a year [1]. So massive MIMO is the prominent candidate that can dramatically reduce future power
consumption of wireless telecommunication technology and achieve huge energy efficiency. This higher

energy efficiency characteristic is not only relevant from an industrial benefit point of view but also
environmental as well as safety of health concern related to wireless communications. Another feature is
channel reciprocity, in which the overhead associated to channel training scales linearly with user terminals
(K) and is independent of the number of base station antennas (N), if N >> K, we can use the simplest linear
detectors at receiver. Due to large number of base station antennas, effect of thermal noise, interference, and
channel estimation errors vanish. When the number of BS antennas increases, the random channel vectors
between the users terminals and the base station become pair wise orthogonal. Another major advantage of
massive MIMO systems is that they facilitate us to reduce the transmitted power. On the uplink channel,
reducing the transmit power of the user terminals will decrease rate of drain their batteries. The design and
analysis of massive MIMO systems is a quite a new concept that is attracting extensive interest.
In this review paper, we have presented performance analysis of massive MIMO system for highly
mobility scenario like high speed railways (HSR). High speed railway (HSR) is established in many countries
and regions as one of the economic, secure, comfortable and punctual transportation system for medium to
long distance travel. To provide highly user friendly environment and operational safety in the train,
broadband services such as onboard high definition video surveillance, passenger high speed internet access,
multimedia functionalities of train, railway emergency communications, online Television and IoT
applications of railway, are nowadays very essential [2], [3]. In addition, record of maximum moving speed
of high speed train is refreshing quickly. Some new challenges are raised by increasing the speed of train like
inter carrier interference, carrier frequency offset, frequent and fast handover, high Doppler spread etc. “Field
tests carried out in various countries, which show that existing 4G technology can only provide maximum of
4 Mbps data rate to high speed trains” [4]. Expectations of future high speed trains are to provide services to
passengers at a data rate of 150 Mbps or more than that. Therefore, it is essential to design new technologies
that meet the need of flawless communication technology in high speed train. Significant challenges of high
speed railway communications are high channel fading, high penetration loss, inter carrier interference, time
varying nature of channel, channel estimation errors, doppler frequency offset (DFO), carrier frequency
offset and frequent handovers. In high mobility scenarios, severe channel estimation error occurs, which
causes serious degradation in system performance [5], [6]. Doppler shift generates carrier frequency offset
(CFO) which occurs because of difference between the frequency of the transmitter and receiver. Penetration
loss in HSR systems is introduced by the metal sealed train coaches. Inter carrier interference (ICI) is
introduced by doubly selective fading in high mobility systems in which channel changes inside single
OFDM symbol and thus ruin the orthogonality inside the subcarriers.
Some newly emerged technologies are introduced to solve the above problems of future HSR
communication systems such as 5G on HSR, and 5G for railway (5G-R) have attracted much attention. These
technologies are developed on the backbone of revolutionary transmission technologies like massive multiple
MIMO, mobile relay, coordinated multipoint and millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology [7], [8]. To
minimize penetration losses of propagation signals, mobile relay station (MRS) are mounted on roof of the
train coaches. MRS provides multihop coverage from base stations to train travelers and thus signal quality
improves. Massive MIMO technology improves channel capacity and hence increases data rate by
installation of large number of antennas at base station hence it is extremely significant role player for
improvement of performance of communication network. Throughput of wireless channel can be increased
by Position added channel estimation scheme where portion of transmitter antenna transmits pilot symbols to
estimate channel and hence no need to measure channel at the receiver by this method information bits can be
increased by minimizing channel estimation bits at receiver [9]-[11]. Beamforming technique is used at
antenna for high array gain. Other advantages of massive MIMO technology are high diversity gain and
multiplexing gain which results in high power gain. But in highly mobile scenario, massive MIMO
architecture requires huge number of transmitter antennas and hence dimension of antenna is increased and
complexity of structure also increased. To evaluate performance of massive MIMO, designing network and
testing in real field, a perfect channel model development is extremely essential [12].
First network is between backbone network which can be high speed 5G internet network and base
station, the second network is between mobile relay station (MRS) mounted on roof of train and base station,
and the last one is the MRS on the top of coach of a train coaches and travelers inside the train who are users.
For such communications network, some promising communication technologies, such millimeter Wave, tera
hertz (THZ) and massive MIMO using beamforming can be appropriate [13]. Massive MIMO will be
introduced to provide high gains to overcome high path loss of mmWave and THz communications. On the
other hand, co-ordinate multipoint technique can also be used in the combined cell to achieve high gain and
simultaneously improve spectral efficiency in high speed railway communication system [14], [15]. In the
combined network of coordinate multipoint technique, two or more base stations are connected to form a
coordinated cell to exchange data. The network architecture of described HST communication system is
illustrated in Figure 1.

2. HSR CHANNEL MODEL
Trains may experience different types of environmental conditions or scenarios while travelling.
These scenarios can be approximately categorised into six scenarios of train passes from like open space,
viaduct, hilly terrain, cutting, tunnels and stations. Moreover, wireless signal propagation can be categorised
into five categories that is, inter train, train to infrastructure, infrastructure to infrastructure, intra train, inside
the train station, and [16]. Table 1 shows various HSR channel models.
Table 1. Recent developments of HST channel models
Name of Channel model Frequency band Deterministic /stochastic Train speed (km/h)
Ray tracing model Mm Wave Deterministic 300
GBSM Mm Wave Stochastic 500
QuaDRiGa-based channel model Mm Wave Stochastic 500
Dynamic channel model Sub-6 GHz Stochastic 300
FSMC Sub-6 GHz Stochastic 350
Propagation graph model Sub-6 GHz Stochastic 198
The Ray tracing channel model is deterministic channel model and operates in mmWave frequency
band. It can provide accurate characterization of a propagation channel at a train speed of around 300 km/h
[16], [17]. One Ray is transmitted which measures information like delay, angle information and amplitude
which is tracked and at receiver summation of all such rays gives information of channel for modelling.
The geometry-based stochastic channel models (GBSMs) is stochastic model and operate at mm
Wave frequency band which can be classified into regular shaped GBSM and irregular shaped GBSM.
Channel information can be derived from geometric relationship. The GBSM channel model is widely used
in high speed railway channel modelling. QuaDRiGa-based channel model can support the mmWave band
and applicable to train speed of 500 km/h. This model works based on scattering multipath and non-
stationary of channel. The finite-state Markov model (FSMC) is stochastic model and applicable to train
speed of 350 km/h. Propagation Graph Model is based on graph theory, and applicable for train speed of
around 198 km/h.
3. ANALYSIS OF MASSIVE MIMO TO ADDRESS CHALLENGES OF FUTURE HSRs
Inter beam interference caused by high mobility scenario is discussed. Where massive MIMO
technology which is one of the main key role player for the upcoming HSR system is introduced.
Beamforming technology which is used at transmitter antenna in 5G technology and significantly reduce
inter beam interference [18], [19]. In massive MIMO transmitter antenna transmits highly directive pencil
narrow beams towards the receiver antenna of user, but unfortunately narrowing beam can reduce the
probability of effective beamforming. Therefore, it is crucial to choose the appropriate beamwidth to transmit

5183
signal. Proposed technique uses optimal position-aware beamwidth adjustment strategy for high speed train
scenario. An optimal beamwidth expression having good quality of service is derived by maximize the beam
directivity.
Due to dominant line of sight signal, spatial temporal correlation exists, which is the characteristic
of the propagation channels is discussed. Because of high channel correlation multiple antenna gain can’t be
achieved. However, it is necessary to control inter carrier interference (ICI) to decrease the strong channel
correlation. In spatial modulation technique only one transmit antenna is activated and transmits information
from the arrays of antennas. In spatial modulation, ICI is avoided which decreases channel correlation.
Analysis of performance of spatial temporal correlated over spatial modulated massive MIMO for Rician fading
channel and HSR scenario is conducted. Simulation result in [20] shows that, massive spatial modulated MIMO
outperforms VBLAST except as shown in plot of Figure 2. Where K is Ricean factor, ∆t is normalized
transmit antenna separation.
Figure 2. SNR vs. BER for velocity = 360 km/h and spectral efficiency 8 bits/s/Hz
Uplink channel from high speed train to base station is analysed based on exact channel power
spectrum density (PSD). Alsovia beamforming network optimization, further reduction in the channel time
variation is proposed. Uniform linear array is installed on the roof of train which separates multiple doppler
shifts in angle domain by beamforming technique. Channel time variation can be reduced by this method. In
this each branch of beamforming contains compensated Doppler shift at Tx antenna. Channel power
spectrum density (PSD) can be articulated as the product of a beam distortion function and pattern function.
Beamforming network is optimized by common configurable amplitudes and phases (CCAP) parameter [21].
In this way, channel time variation and doppler shift can be reduced. As shown in Figure 3 Doppler spread is
decreasing with increasing number of antennas M and also compared to MF beam formers, Doppler spread is
reduced in optimized CCAP beamformers.
Angle domain doppler compensation can be applied for massive MIMO uplink channel for highly
mobile environment. The time varying small scale fading channel is considered. Due to very high speed of
train, multiple doppler frequency offsets (DFOs) are generated. By deploying large number of uniform linear
array at transmitter antenna (mounted on the roof of train) a beamforming network having multiple parallel
beamforming branches is developed, in which each transmitted signal pointed to one particular angle.
Because of this structure, uplink signal of each branch will undergo only one dominant doppler frequency
offset. Compensation of this single dominant DFO can be achieved at transmitter. Channel time variation can
be efficiently reduced if large number of transmitter antennas are placed. Doppler spread is proportional to
doppler frequency offset and reduces as 1/√M where M is the number of transmit [22] as shown in Figure 4,
where fdTb is normalized maximum DFO.
Inter carrier interference (ICI) is introduced in high speed train because of fast time varying channel
due to very high velocity of train. AWGN and Ricean fading downlink channels are focused to develop ICI
reduction methods. “With the data of relative areas and speeds between comparing antenna pairs, ICI

matrices in AWGN and Ricean fading channels are determinant, and they are having unity value” [23], [24].
Finally, two analogous low complexity ICI reduction techniques for fast time shifting nature are described, which
analyse at the 300 km/h velocity with same QoS that obtained in the case without ICI.

Location based beamforming having less complex configuration for the massive MIMO system
without considering the effect of inter beam interference, a unique solution can be achieved to increase the
total system channel capacity in bits/Hz of base station is presented in high mobility scenario [25]. As shown
in Figure 5, mobile service in bits/ Hz is higher in resource allocation beamforming with inter beam
interference elimination technique compared to resource allocation beamforming technique without Inter
beam interference elimination technique because of suppressed channel time variation.

4. RESULT ANALYSIS
There is always tradeoff between antenna beam gain and beam width. By increasing beam gain of
antenna, beam width becomes narrow. Narrow beam width will decrease the probability of effective
beamforming. There is optimum position aware beam adjustment technique in which switching interval of
dominant radiating antenna is kept according to beamforming probability. By this technique antenna gain and
beamwidth will be appropriate with good QoS.
To obtain multiple antenna gain, channel correlation must be weakened. Spatial modulation massive
MIMO technique decreases ICI and thus channels correlation also reduces. This will ultimately increase
multiple antenna gain. Spatial modulation activates only one transmit antenna at a time, which will reduce
ICI.
Effectively Doppler spread is reduced by introducing common configurable amplitudes and phases
(CCAP) parameters to optimize beamforming network. It will suppress residual Doppler shifts and will
reduce channel time variations. Massive uniform linear array configured at transmitter provides multiple
beamforming branch. Each beam will undergo only one dominant doppler frequency offset (DFO), which can
be compensated at transmitter before transmitting the signal. Thus, channel time variation can be suppressed.
Also, as number of Tx antenna increases Doppler spread decreases.
ICI reduction process in High mobility scenario for distributed antennas massive MIMO downlinks
derived and total ICI matrix can be formulated as the weighting average of single ICI matrices. Where the
weighting coefficients are the corresponding channel gain factors. By calculations unitary ICI matrixes
derived and ICI reduction method without matrix inversion processes proposed with retaining same spectral
efficiency.
5. KEY FINDINGS AND FUTURE RESEARCH SCOPE
