Full-Duplex Massive MIMO

Project Dataset

This dataset was collected in the anechoic chamber setup at the POWDER platform. In Full-Duplex systems, one of the main challenges is self-interference where outgoing transmissions essentially "drown" the incoming signals. For this dataset we measured the self-interference across all radios on a massive MIMO base station comprised of 48 radios. We used our Sounder tool to continuously send pilots from each antenna, in round robin fashion, while all other antennas listened to those transmissions. These datasets were collected by the RENEW team at the University of Utah campus. For any questions about this dataset, please contact us.
