To accomplish these demands in a cellular environment is a huge challenge and it is more critical at the cell edges infected with interference. Moreover, if the users have poor channel conditions, they experience even more severe degradation due to inter-cell interference that creates a bottleneck in wireless systems. Besides, neither time/frequency division multiplexing nor power control has achieved the full promise of spectral efficiency. Due to differences in transmission power and channel gain in heterogeneous networks, interference cancellation-based transmission techniques have great opportunities to increase throughput. Therefore, to meet the quality of service (QoS) requirements, user equipment devices (UEs) must be assigned a significant amount of power. To address these requirements and challenges, we propose a novel hybrid coordinated multi-point (H-CoMP) design for cell-edge users to combat inter-cell interference (ICI), inter-user interference (IUI), and improve spectral efficiency. Specifically, channel-based precoders are designed to deal with ICI, remove channel effects and provide reliable communication to cell-edge users. Mathematical models and simulations highlight the inventiveness and efficiency of the proposed H-CoMP paradigm. The acquired results show the performance of the proposed solution and the ability to reduce system complexity leading to enhanced overall system performance.

Yet, the most exciting feature of DAS is the distribution of remote radio heads (RRH) Distributed antenna system (DAS) is a highly diversified concept that can help lower radiated power, maximize coverage, and improve spectral efficiency. Yet, the most exciting feature of DAS is the distribution of remote radio heads (RRH) or antennas over a wide geographical area, which allows the use of less complex signal processing techniques resulting in the reduction of systems’ size and cost. These features of DAS were utilized in network MIMO, distributed MIMO, multi-cell MIMO, and distributed-input distributed-output (DIDO) systems to move away from the centralized approach as in conventional multi-user and massive MIMO systems. In this tutorial paper, we first talk about MIMO systems with their relevant technologies by categorizing them into two main approaches according to their working principles and systematic architecture; the first approach is based on a centralized (or collocated) architecture, whereas the second is based on a decentralized (or distributed) architecture. We then deep dive into all the different technologies related to these architectures one by one and explain each in detail with much more focus on the similarities and differences between them. After that, we exposition the main target of this study, which is to answer the following question \"Is cell-free massive MIMO (CF-MMIMO) equivalent to the already existing and commercialized pCell technology?\". To confidently answer this question, we comprehensively and deeply study the two technologies considering the differences in their system models and look into their conceptual formulations as well as their respective channel models. More particularly, we detail CF-MMIMO and pCell architectures while giving special attention to pCell’s SDR wireless platform and stating why it is crucial for the current wireless systems. Then, we present the understandings that are acquired after careful observations and provide recommendations based upon them. In short, this study aims to focus the reader attention on the fact that all the distributed and cell-free MIMO-related technologies work on the same principle, and the way these systems are built makes them fundamentally equivalent, yet, they are displayed quite differently using different terminologies and perspectives, which can cause confusion to readers and end up misleading future researchers.

Rye Primary School was given a little oak tree which had been grown from an acorn from an oak tree brought from Gallipoli. The tree was planted at the front of the school by 5 students who are direct descendants of diggers who went to World War 1 from Rye. After the tree planting we had an assembly in the hall. The School leaders and the choir led us with readings, songs, and the National Anthem in a beautiful remembrance with a lovely contribution of a poem from Talia. I was extremely proud to be principal of Rye Primary School as I can honestly say every single student in the hall engaged with the commemoration and demonstrated great respect through their behaviour. Many of our visitors commented on the students behaviour in a very positive way.
