摘要:

导频污染(PC)是影响大规模多输入多输出(MIMO)系统的一个众所周知的问题。当不同小区之间复用频率和导频时,PC会成为系统性能的主要瓶颈之一。本文提出了一种基于变分自编码器(VAE)的方法,能够在信道估计(CE)过程中降低PC相关干扰的影响。我们获取了目标小区内用户设备(UE)和干扰小区内用户设备的条件高斯(CG)信道的一阶和二阶统计量,随后利用这些矩计算条件线性最小均方误差估计。结果表明,所提出的估计器能够利用干扰源的额外统计知识,性能优于其他经典方法。此外,我们还强调了可实现的性能与所选设置的关联,说明设置选择在多小区信道估计研究中至关重要。

英文摘要:

Pilot contamination (PC) is a well-known problem that affects massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. When frequency and pilots are reused between different cells, PC constitutes one of the main bottlenecks of the system's performance. In this paper, we propose a method based on the variational autoencoder (VAE), capable of reducing the impact of PC-related interference during channel estimation (CE). We obtain the first and second-order statistics of the conditionally Gaussian (CG) channels for both the user equipments (UEs) in a cell of interest and those in interfering cells, and we then use these moments to compute conditional linear minimum mean square error estimates. We show that the proposed estimator is capable of exploiting the interferers' additional statistical knowledge, outperforming other classical approaches. Moreover, we highlight how the achievable performance is tied to the chosen setup, making the setup selection crucial in the study of multi-cell CE.
