This letter proposes an antenna tilt adaptation approach for multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output systems. The asymptotic spectral efficiency of the system with pilot contamination in the limit of the antennas is first derived. The analysis demonstrates that the spectral efficiency is a concave function of the tilts with some specific requirements being satisfied. As a result, a gradient descent-based method is proposed to approach the optimal tilt. Numerical results verify that the proposed approach performs better than a traditional low-complexity approach.
