Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) is an extension of the conventional MIMO in the wireless systems which improves both of the access density and the spectral efficiency by adding a massive number of antenna array at the base station (BS). Massive MIMO increases the spectral efficiency by using the beamforming. Besides, the beamforming in massive MIMO improves the energy efficiency by focusing the energy in the desired direction instead of the omnidirectional propagation. In this paper, we propose and discuss different beamforming objectives in both the uplink and the downlink channels. These proposed objectives can be either use the beamforming of the desired signal without nulling the interference or use the beamforming with interference nulling. The beamforming with nulling objectives have better performance than those without nulling but this leads to a higher computational complexity as well. The results of this paper show and compare the performance of these objective including the spectral efficiency and energy efficiency as well as the computational complexity.

Abstract –In this paper, different amplitude and phase modulation formats are investigated and compared to find the optimum one among them for high spectral efficiency (SE) Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) systems with an acceptable value of the Bit Error Rate (BER). Also, the effectiveness of using the polarization interleaving scheme in minimizing the nonlinear effects in the optical fiber channel for the various modulation formats is investigated. (Optisystem v 7.0) A simulation package is used to simulate the system. The simulation results show the effectiveness of using the polarization interleaving in decreasing the nonlinear effects. RZ modulation formats are found to give a better BER value than the corresponding NRZ formats but with a smaller value of the SE. Among the compared modulation formats, RZ-AMI and the RZ-DQPSK are the only formats that are found to give the optimal performance for high capacity WDM networks.
