Abstract(in English) Cell-free massive multi-input multi-output (CF-mMIMO), which is recently under extensive study, is considered to be an effective way to provide high-quality services to users by deploying a large number of antennas over a wide area in Beyond 5G systems. However, due to the extremely high computational complexity required for mMIMO, system scalability becomes an important issue for its practical implementation. In our previous study, we proposed a scalable user-cluster-centric (UCC) CF-mMIMO scheme, which employs interference suppression zero-forcing (IS-ZF)-based multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) to effectively mitigate the inter-cluster interference. How to identify and select dominant interfering users who give a strong impact on the system capacity is an important issue. In this paper, we will investigate the impact of the number of interfering users considered for the IS-ZF-based MU-MIMO on the system capacity and propose an effective selection method of dominant interfering users. We will show by the computer simulation that the proposed interfering user selection method can approximately reach the upper bound of capacity which is achieved by IS-ZF-based MU-MIMO considering all interfering users.
