Abstract

Disclosed are a method and system for acquiring massive MIMO beam domain statistical channel information. A refined beam domain channel model involved in the disclosed method is based on a refined sampling steering vector matrix. Compared with a traditional DFT matrix-based beam domain channel model, when antenna size is limited, said model is closer to a physical channel model, and provides a model basis for solving the problem of the universality of massive MIMO for various typical mobile scenarios under a constraint on antenna size. The present invention provides a method for acquiring massive MIMO refined beam domain a priori statistical channel information and a posteriori statistical channel information, the a posteriori statistical channel information comprising mean and variance information of the a posteriori channel. The method of the present invention has low complexity, can be applied to an actual massive MIMO system, provides support for a robust precoding transmission method, and has large application value.
