Channel estimation is challenging for hybrid millimeter wave (mmWave) large-scale antenna arrays which are promising in 5G/B5G applications. The challenges are associated with angular resolution losses resulting from hybrid front-ends, beam squinting, and susceptibility to the receiver noises. Based on tensor signal processing, this paper presents a novel multi-dimensional approach to channel parameter estimation with large-scale mmWave hybrid uniform circular cylindrical arrays (UCyAs) which are compact in size and immune to mutual coupling but known to suffer from infinite-dimensional array responses and intractability. We design a new resolution-preserving hybrid beamformer and a low-complexity beam squinting suppression method, and reveal the existence of shift-invariance relations in the tensor models of received array signals at the UCyA. Exploiting these relations, we propose a new tensor-based subspace estimation algorithm to suppress the receiver noises in all dimensions (time, frequency, and space). The algorithm can accurately estimate the channel parameters from both coherent and incoherent signals. Corroborated by the Cram{e}r-Rao lower bound (CRLB), simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is able to achieve substantially higher estimation accuracy than existing matrix-based techniques, with a comparable computational complexity.

Channel estimation in wideband millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems is very challenging due to the beam squint effect. To solve the problem, we propose a learnable iterative shrinkage thresholding algorithm-based channel estimator (LISTA-CE) based on dee p learning. The proposed channel estimator can learn to transform the beam-frequency mmWave channel into the domain with sparse features through training data. The transform domain enables us to adopt a simple denoiser with few trainable parameters. We further enhance the adaptivity of the estimator by introducing emph{hypernetwork} to automatically generate learnable parameters for LISTA-CE online. Simulation results show that the proposed approach can significantly outperform the state-of-the-art deep learning-based algorithms with lower complexity and fewer parameters and adapt to new scenarios rapidly.
In this paper, we tackle channel estimation in millimeter-wave hybrid multiple-input multiple-output systems by considering off-grid effects. In particular, we assume that spatial parameters can take any value in the angular domain, and need not fall on predefined discretized angles. Instead of increasing the number of discretized points to combat off-grid effects, we use implicit Dirichlet kernel structure in the Fourier domain, which conventional compressed sensing methods do not use. We propose greedy low-complexity algorithms based on orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP); our core idea is to traverse the Dirichlet kernel peak using estimates of the discrete Fourier transform. We demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed algorithms compared to standard OMP reconstruction. Numerical results show that our proposed algorithms obtain smaller reconstruction errors when off-grid effects are accounted for.
A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can shape the radio propagation by passively changing the directions of impinging electromagnetic waves. The optimal control of the RIS requires perfect channel state information (CSI) of all the links conne cting the base station (BS) and the mobile station (MS) via the RIS. Thereby the channel (parameter) estimation at the BS/MS and the related message feedback mechanism are needed. In this paper, we adopt a two-stage channel estimation scheme for the RIS-aided millimeter wave (mmWave) MIMO channels using an iterative reweighted method to sequentially estimate the channel parameters. We evaluate the average spectrum efficiency (SE) and the RIS beamforming gain of the proposed scheme and demonstrate that it achieves high-resolution estimation with the average SE comparable to that with perfect CSI.
Channel estimation is challenging for the reconfigurable intelligence surface (RIS) assisted millimeter wave (mmWave) communications. Since the number of coefficients of the cascaded channels in such systems is closely dependent on the product of the number of base station antennas and the number of RIS elements, the pilot overhead would be prohibitively high. In this letter, we propose a cascaded channel estimation framework for an RIS assisted mmWave multiple-input multiple-output system, where the wideband effect on transmission model is considered. Then, we transform the wideband channel estimation into a parameter recovery problem and use a few pilot symbols to detect the channel parameters by the Newtonized orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm. Moreover, the Cramer-Rao lower bound on the channel estimation is introduced. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed channel estimation scheme.
Communication at high carrier frequencies such as millimeter wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) requires channel estimation for very large bandwidths at low SNR. Hence, allocating an orthogonal pilot tone for each coherence bandwidth leads to excessiv e number of pilots. We leverage generative adversarial networks (GANs) to accurately estimate frequency selective channels with few pilots at low SNR. The proposed estimator first learns to produce channel samples from the true but unknown channel distribution via training the generative network, and then uses this trained network as a prior to estimate the current channel by optimizing the networks input vector in light of the current received signal. Our results show that at an SNR of -5 dB, even if a transceiver with one-bit phase shifters is employed, our design achieves the same channel estimation error as an LS estimator with SNR = 20 dB or the LMMSE estimator at 2.5 dB, both with fully digital architectures. Additionally, the GAN-based estimator reduces the required number of pilots by about 70% without significantly increasing the estimation error and required SNR. We also show that the generative network does not appear to require retraining even if the number of clusters and rays change considerably.
