The effects of pilot contamination (PC) on the performance of multi-cell multi-user massive multiple input multiple output (MC-MU-m-MIMO) system in uplink has been analyzed in this article. In a multi-cell scenario, the channel estimation (CE) at the desired cell using pilot reuse to avoid significant overhead results in poor CE due to PC. The improvement in degraded performance due to the effect of PC has been shown using low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes. The comparative analysis of performance in terms of variation in bit error rate (BER) with the signal to noise ratio (SNR) for LDPC coded and uncoded information blocks of users has been shown when the number of cells sharing the same frequency band is varied. Further, the expression for sum-rate has been derived and its variation with the number of base station (BS) antennas has also been shown. The simulated results have shown that the LDPC coded scheme performs better than the uncoded counterpart and the sum-rate capacity increases when the strength of channel coefficients between the BS antennas of the desired cell and the users of remaining cells is less.

This article studies the power-ordered Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) techniques associated with Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes, adopted for use in the fifth generation of cellular communications (5G). Both conventional and cooperative NOMA are studied, associated with Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization (SC-FDE) and massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO). Billions of Internet of Things (IoT) devices are aimed to be incorporated by the Fourth Industrial Revolution, requiring more efficient use of the spectrum. NOMA techniques have the potential to support that goal and represent strong candidates for incorporation into future releases of 5G. This article shows that combined schemes associated with both conventional and cooperative LDPC-coded NOMA achieve good performance while keeping the computational complexity at an acceptable level.
