摘要:

极大规模可重构智能表面(XL-RIS)正成为6G系统的一项极具前景的关键技术。为充分发挥XL-RIS的全部潜力,准确的信道估计至关重要。本文研究了在远场和近场信道共存的混合场场景下,XL-RIS辅助的大规模MIMO系统中的信道估计问题。我们使用字典学习来构建该问题,从而实现对字典和估计信道的联合优化。为处理XL-RIS信道的高维特性,我们专门采用了卷积字典学习(CDL)公式化方法。CDL公式化被构建为一个双层优化问题,我们使用基于梯度的方法对其进行求解。为解决计算上层目标函数梯度的挑战,我们引入了一种基于近端梯度下降(PGD)及其特例迭代软阈值算法(ISTA)的展开优化方法。我们提出了两种神经网络架构:Convolutional ISTA-Net及其增强版Convolutional ISTA-Net+,用于CDL的端到端优化。为克服线性卷积滤波器在捕获复杂混合场信道结构方面的局限性,我们提出了CNN-CDL方法,该方法在其梯度下降步骤中用CNN块替代线性卷积滤波器,在其近端映射步骤中采用可学习的近端映射模块,并整合了跨层特征集成。仿真结果证明了所提方法在混合场XL-RIS系统信道估计中的有效性。

英文摘要:

Extremely large reconfigurable intelligent surface (XL-RIS) is emerging as a promising key technology for 6G systems. To exploit XL-RIS's full potential, accurate channel estimation is essential. This paper investigates channel estimation in XL-RIS-aided massive MIMO systems under hybrid-field scenarios where far-field and near-field channels coexist. We formulate this problem using dictionary learning, which allows for joint optimization of the dictionary and estimated channel. To handle the high-dimensional nature of XL-RIS channels, we specifically adopt a convolutional dictionary learning (CDL) formulation. The CDL formulation is cast as a bilevel optimization problem, which we solve using a gradient-based approach. To address the challenge of computing the gradient of the upper-level objective, we introduce an unrolled optimization method based on proximal gradient descent (PGD) and its special case, the iterative soft-thresholding algorithm (ISTA). We propose two neural network architectures, Convolutional ISTA-Net and its enhanced version Convolutional ISTA-Net+, for end-to-end optimization of the CDL. To overcome the limitations of linear convolutional filters in capturing complex hybrid-field channel structures, we propose the CNN-CDL approach, which enhances PGD by replacing linear convolution filters with CNN blocks in its gradient descent step, employing a learnable proximal mapping module in its proximal mapping step, and incorporating cross-layer feature integration. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods for channel estimation in hybrid-field XL-RIS systems.
