Abstract

A large number of transmitting components makes Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) one of the most hopeful solution for the 5G technology. However, a large antenna system boosts the hardware intricacy and cost of the system because of RF transceivers used at the base station for every antenna element. Hence, antenna selection is one of the most effective schemes to select a good subset of antennas with the finest channel circumstances and contribute maximum to the channel capacity. This paper presents Branch and Bound (BAB) algorithm for efficient antenna selection in Massive MIMO technology. The effectiveness of the simulated BAB algorithm is evaluated based on channel capacity and compared with the traditional state of arts such as fast antenna selection algorithm, Exhaustive Search, Fast antenna selection, CBF, CBW, Random antenna selection, etc. Sunflower Optimization-based antenna selection has been shown to provide improved results in terms of channel capacity when compared to the traditional Branch and Bound algorithm. The results indicate that the Sunflower Optimization technique is a promising alternative for antenna selection in Massive MIMO systems, especially in cases where a large number of antennas are present at the transmitter and receiver ends. The proposed solution provides significant improvements over the traditional methods, making it an attractive option for optimizing MIMO performance in future wireless communication systems.
