In this paper, we investigate the spectral efficiency (SE) of a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) antenna network in full-duplex (FD) regime, where uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) users simultaneously share the same time and frequency resources. Zero-forcing approach is applied efficiently to precode/detect signals in both UL and DL. To achieve the SE maximization, we formulate an optimized problem where the transmit power of Base station (BS) and users are jointly considered. Numerical results are used to show that the proposed algorithm may bring significant SE gain over the previous approaches under realistic channel conditions.

The demand for higher data rates can be satisfied by the spectral efficiency (SE) improvement offered by Massive multiple-input multiple-output (M-MIMO) systems. However, the pilot contamination remains as a fundamental issue to obtain the paramount SE in such systems. This propitiated the research of several methods to mitigate pilot contamination. One of these procedures is based on the coordination of the cells, culminating in proposals with multiple pilot training phases. This paper aims to expand the results of the original paper, whereby the concepts of large pilot training phases were offered. The evaluation of such method was conducted through more comprehensible numerical results, in which a large number of antennas were assumed and more rigorous SE expressions were used. The channel estimation approaches relying on multiple pilot training phases were considered cumbersome for implementation and an uninteresting solution to overcome pilot contamination; contradicting the results presented in the genuine paper.
