Concerning the optimizer, a binary particle swarm optimization algorithm was considered to decide whether to activate or deactivate any of the antennas within the original mesh, taking into account, in order to direct the search, the total spectral efficiency, the equality between the spectral efficiency of users, and the number of receiver antennas at the distributed base station. The analysis was carried out in a large indoor environment at the 5G n258 frequency band (26 GHz), concentrating on the up-link and considering a set of 20 uniformly distributed active users. The results obtained show that, in the distributed mMIMO system, an arrangement with fewer than half the number of receiver antennas of the initial mesh is required to achieve a similar performance to that of the concentrated one taken as a reference.This work was supported by the MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011 033/through the I+D+i Projects under Grants PID2020-119173RB-C21 and PID2020-119173RB-C22; and the Contrato Programa Gobierno de Cantabria-UC under Proyectos Puente 2024 funds (12.VP96.64662).MDPI AGEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de TelecomunicaciónDepartamento de ComunicacionesInstituto Universitario de Telecomunicación y Aplicaciones MultimediaGobierno de CantabriaAgencia Estatal de InvestigaciónRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20252025-03-20journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/221163reponame:RiuNet.
