摘要翻译：
与传统的小规模MIMO技术相比，大规模多用户多输入多输出（MU-MIMO）技术在频谱效率和链路可靠性方面有了显著的提高。此外，线性预编码器，例如使用迫零或维纳滤波(WF)预编码，足以在海量MU-MIMO下行链路中实现优异的误码率性能。然而，这些方法需要在基站(BS)处集中处理，这导致(i)过高的互连和芯片输入/输出数据速率，以及(ii)高的实现复杂性。我们提出了两种前馈结构和相应的分散WF预编码器，它们在多个计算结构上并行化预编码，有效地缓解了集中式方法的问题。为了验证分散预编码器的有效性，我们在多GPU系统上的实现结果表明，我们的解决方案在Gbit/s体制下实现了吞吐量，同时在大规模MU-MIMO下行链路中实现了（接近）最优的误码率性能。

英文摘要：
  Massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) enables significant gains in spectral efficiency and link reliability compared to conventional small-scale MIMO technology. Furthermore, linear precoders, e.g., using zero forcing or Wiener filter (WF) precoding, are sufficient to achieve excellent error-rate performance in the massive MU-MIMO downlink. However, these methods necessitate centralized processing at the base-station (BS), which causes (i) excessively high interconnect and chip input/output data rates, and (ii) high implementation complexity. We propose two feedforward architectures and corresponding decentralized WF precoders that parallelize precoding across multiple computing fabrics, effectively mitigating the issues of centralized approaches. To demonstrate the efficacy of our decentralized precoders, we provide implementation results on a multi-GPU system, which show that our solutions achieve throughputs in the Gbit/s regime while achieving (near-)optimal error-rate performance in the massive MU-MIMO downlink.
