大规模多输入多输出中利用定时偏移和剩余时延的随机接入

Luca Sanguinetti, Antonio A. D'Amico, Michele Morelli, Merouane Debbah

摘要:

大规模多输入多输出系统(其中基站配备有数百个天线)是处理数据业务快速增长的有吸引力的方式。随着用户设备(UE)数量的增加,在现代网络中的初始接入和切换将被用户冲突淹没。在本文中,提出了一种随机接入协议,解决冲突,并通过简单地利用大量的天线设想在大规模多输入多输出网络进行定时估计。进入网络的UE在时域和频域两者中执行扩展,并且在基站处使用子空间分解方法以封闭形式估计它们的定时偏移。该信息用于计算信道估计,基站随后采用该信道估计来与检测到的UE进行通信。大规模多输入多输出的有利传播条件抑制了UE之间的干扰,而固有的定时失准提高了协议的检测能力。数值结果被用来验证所提出的方法在蜂窝网络中的性能在不相关和相关衰落信道下。对于可以以概率1\%和总共的$16$频率-时间码(在给定的随机接入块中)同时变为活动的$2.5\times10^3$ UE,结果是,对于$100$天线,所提出的过程以概率75\%成功地检测到给定UE,同时提供可靠的定时估计。

英文摘要:

Massive MIMO systems, where base stations are equipped with hundreds of antennas, are an attractive way to handle the rapid growth of data traffic. As the number of user equipments (UEs) increases, the initial access and handover in contemporary networks will be flooded by user collisions. In this paper, a random access protocol is proposed that resolves collisions and performs timing estimation by simply utilizing the large number of antennas envisioned in Massive MIMO networks. UEs entering the network perform spreading in both time and frequency domains, and their timing offsets are estimated at the base station in closed-form using a subspace decomposition approach. This information is used to compute channel estimates that are subsequently employed by the base station to communicate with the detected UEs. The favorable propagation conditions of Massive MIMO suppress interference among UEs whereas the inherent timing misalignments improve the detection capabilities of the protocol. Numerical results are used to validate the performance of the proposed procedure in cellular networks under uncorrelated and correlated fading channels. With $2.5\times10^3$ UEs that may simultaneously become active with probability 1\% and a total of $16$ frequency-time codes (in a given random access block), it turns out that, with $100$ antennas, the proposed procedure successfully detects a given UE with probability 75\% while providing reliable timing estimates.
