Abstract In this paper, the entire network model is a hybrid wireless network model in which each base station is connected to each other via a wired link. On this basis, we place a large number of antennas (massive MIMO) at each base station to serve a single terminal in the downlink scenario, and we research the outage capacity and ergodic capacity in this scenario. The result of this paper is that the expressions for ergodic throughput capacity, outage probability, and outage throughput capacity have been derived under the favorable propagation condition. Through simulation, we can see the trend of outage throughput capacity and ergodic throughput capacity.
