摘要:

针对多用户大规模多输入多输出(MU-mMIMO)系统,提出了一种基于角度混合预编码(AB-HP)的信道估计方法。提出的信道估计技术通过深度神经网络(DNN)和模糊c均值(FCM)聚类生成服务区域中用户终端(UT)区域的分组信道状态信息(CSI)。通过离线光线追踪和与一维卷积神经网络(1D-CNN)和回归树集合相关联的基于DNN的路径估计模型,从地理空间数据计算服务区域中的基站(BS)与可行UT位置之间的慢时变CSI。然后,UT级CSI的所有可行的位置被分组到一个建议的FCM聚类簇。最后,服务区域被划分为多个非重叠UT区。每个UT区的特征在于被称为UT组CSI的对应集群集合,其在AB-HP的模拟RF波束成形器设计中被利用以减少MU-mMIMO系统中所需的大的在线CSI开销。然后,在AB-HP的基带(BB)预编码器中采用减小尺寸的在线CSI。仿真在28 GHz的室内场景中进行,并在具有16 × 16 =256个天线和22个RF链的均匀矩形阵列(URA)的AB-HP MU-mMIMO系统中进行测试。说明性的结果表明,91.4%的在线CSI可以减少通过使用所提出的离线信道估计技术相比,传统的在线信道探测。所提出的基于DNN的路径估计技术产生相同量的UT级CSI,与计算上昂贵的光线追踪相比,运行时间减少了65.8%。

英文摘要:

This paper presents a novel channel estimation technique for the multi-user massive multiple-input multiple-output (MU-mMIMO) systems using angular-based hybrid precoding (AB-HP). The proposed channel estimation technique generates group-wise channel state information (CSI) of user terminal (UT) zones in the service area by deep neural networks (DNN) and fuzzy c-Means (FCM) clustering. The slow time-varying CSI between the base station (BS) and feasible UT locations in the service area is calculated from the geospatial data by offline ray tracing and a DNN-based path estimation model associated with the 1-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) and regression tree ensembles. Then, the UT-level CSI of all feasible locations is grouped into clusters by a proposed FCM clustering. Finally, the service area is divided into a number of non-overlapping UT zones. Each UT zone is characterized by a corresponding set of clusters named as UT-group CSI, which is utilized in the analog RF beamformer design of AB-HP to reduce the required large online CSI overhead in the MU-mMIMO systems. Then, the reduced-size online CSI is employed in the baseband (BB) precoder of AB-HP. Simulations are conducted in the indoor scenario at 28 GHz and tested in an AB-HP MU-mMIMO system with a uniform rectangular array (URA) having 16x16=256 antennas and 22 RF chains. Illustrative results indicate that 91.4% online CSI can be reduced by using the proposed offline channel estimation technique as compared to the conventional online channel sounding. The proposed DNN-based path estimation technique produces same amount of UT-level CSI with runtime reduced by 65.8% as compared to the computationally expensive ray tracing.
