摘要:

空中计算(AirComp)利用无线多址信道的叠加特性,被视为一种面向数据聚合和分布式学习的通信高效解决方案。然而,AirComp会受到不同无线设备所经历的不均匀信号衰减的显著影响。近年来,无蜂窝大规模MIMO(Cell-free mMIMO)作为一种通过联合相干传输提供均匀覆盖和高数据速率的有前景技术而兴起。本文研究了无蜂窝mMIMO系统中的AirComp,并考虑了空间相关衰落和信道估计误差。特别地,我们提出了在不同接入点协作级别下的发射系数和接收合并的优化设计。数值结果表明,采用完全集中式处理的无蜂窝mMIMO在均方误差(MSE)方面显著优于传统蜂窝mMIMO。此外,我们表明,当无线设备功率预算有限时,采用本地处理和大尺度衰落解码的无蜂窝mMIMO可以实现比蜂窝mMIMO更低的MSE。

英文摘要:

Over-the-air computation (AirComp) is considered as a communication-efficient solution for data aggregation and distributed learning by exploiting the superposition properties of wireless multi-access channels. However, AirComp is significantly affected by the uneven signal attenuation experienced by different wireless devices. Recently, Cell-free Massive MIMO (mMIMO) has emerged as a promising technology to provide uniform coverage and high rates by joint coherent transmission. In this paper, we investigate AirComp in Cell-free mMIMO systems, taking into account spatially correlated fading and channel estimation errors. In particular, we propose optimal designs of transmit coefficients and receive combing at different levels of cooperation among access points. Numerical results demonstrate that Cell-free mMIMO using fully centralized processing significantly outperforms conventional Cellular mMIMO with regard to the mean squared error (MSE). Moreover, we show that Cell-free mMIMO using local processing and large-scale fading decoding can achieve a lower MSE than Cellular mMIMO when the wireless devices have limited power budgets.
