Linear interference cancellation for the cell-free C-RAN uplink

Drawing on the notion of parallel interference cancellation, this paper formulates a one-shot linear receiver for the uplink of centralized, possibly cloud-based, radio access networks (C-RANs) operating in a cell-free fashion. This receiver exhibits substantial interference rejection abilities, yet...
