In this paper we consider Millimeter wave (mmWave) Massive MIMO systems where a large antenna array at the base station (BS) serves a few scheduled terminals. The high dimensional null space of the channel matrix to the scheduled terminals is utilized to broadcast system information to the non-scheduled terminals on the same time-frequency resource.
Our analysis reveals the interesting result that with a sufficiently large antenna array this non-orthogonal broadcast strategy requires significantly less total transmit power when compared to the traditional orthogonal strategy where a fraction of the total resource is reserved for broadcast of system information.
