In this paper, we investigate a coordinated multipoint (CoMP) beamforming and power control problem for base stations (BSs) with a massive number of antenna arrays under coarse quantization at low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converter (DACs). Unlike high-reso...
