We propose a novel scheme for estimating the large- scale gains of the channels between user terminals (UTs) and base stations (BSs) in a cellular system. The scheme leverages TDD operation, uplink (UL) training by means of properly designed non-orthogonal pilot codes, and massive antenna arrays at the BSs. Subject to Q resource elements allocated for UL training and using the new scheme, a BS is able to estimate the large- scale channel gains of K users transmitting UL pilots in its cell and in nearby cells, provided K &#x2264;Q<sup>2</sup>. Such knowledge of the large-scale channel gains of nearby out-of-cells users can be exploited at the BS to mitigate interference to the out-of-cell users that experience the highest levels of interference from the BS. We investigate the large-scale gain estimation performance provided by a variety of non-orthogonal pilot codebook designs. Our simulations suggest that among all the code designs considered, Grassmannian line-packing type codes yield the best large-scale channel gain estimation performance.
