Abstract: This paper deals with antenna selection for multi-user massive MIMO systems with the aim of maximising energy efficiency. Massive MIMO technology, by employing a large number of antennas at base station, provides huge improvements in throughput and energy efficiency. The increased number of antennas leads to additional energy consumption due to RF chains and signal processing circuit. The main purpose of the paper is to determine the optimal subset of antennas at the base station that should be activated to serve a given number of active user equipment. This idea is implemented using artificial bee colony algorithm which has proven it efficiency by specifying the best control parameters.
