  This paper explores the potential of wireless power transfer (WPT) in massive
multiple input multiple output (MIMO) aided heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
where massive MIMO is applied in the macrocells, and users aim to harvest as
much energy as possible and reduce the uplink path loss for enhancing their
information transfer. By addressing the impact of massive MIMO on the user
association, we compare and analyze two user association schemes. We adopt the
linear maximal ratio transmission beam-forming for massive MIMO power transfer
to recharge users. By deriving new statistical properties, we obtain the exact
and asymptotic expressions for the average harvested energy. Then we derive the
average uplink achievable rate under the harvested energy constraint.
