Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, cell-free massive multiple-input-multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) system has been attracting a great attention. CF-mMIMO system is designed to accommodate a relatively small number of users by using a large number of antennas. From the practical perspective of computational complexity and fronthaul capacity, a user-centric antenna clustering approach is taken, i.e., each user is served by an antenna cluster which is a set of antennas with high channel gain. However, as the number of users increases, the interference tends to degrade the transmission performance. To improve the transmission performance under a densely populated user environment, we propose to incorporate the multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology into user-centric CF-mMIMO, which is called clusters-centric CF-mMIMO in this paper. In cluster-centric CF-mMIMO, user-clusters are first formed and a set of antennas is associated with each user cluster for performing MU-MIMO communication in parallel. We will show by computer simulation of user capacity that the proposed cluster-centric CF-mMIMO outperforms the user-centric CF-mMIMO under a densely populated user environment.
