In a time-varying massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) system, the acquisition of the downlink channel state information at the base station (BS) is a very challenging task due to the prohibitively high overheads associated with downlink training and uplink feedback. In this paper, we consider the hybrid precoding structure at BS and examine the antennatime domain channel extrapolation. We design a latent ordinary differential equation (ODE)-based network under the variational auto-encoder (VAE) framework to learn the mapping function from the partial uplink channels to the full downlink ones at the BS side. Specifically, the gated recurrent unit is adopted for the encoder and the fully-connected neural network is used for the decoder. The end-to-end learning is utilized to optimize the network parameters. Simulation results show that the designed network can efficiently infer the full downlink channels from the partial uplink ones, which can significantly reduce the channel training overhead.

Channel estimation is very challenging when the receiver is equipped with a limited number of radio-frequency (RF) chains in beamspace millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input and multiple-output systems. To solve this problem, we exploit a le arned denoising-based approximate message passing (LDAMP) network. This neural network can learn channel structure and estimate channel from a large number of training data. Furthermore, we provide an analytical framework on the asymptotic performance of the channel estimator. Based on our analysis and simulation results, the LDAMP neural network significantly outperforms state-of-the-art compressed sensingbased algorithms even when the receiver is equipped with a small number of RF chains. Therefore, deep learning is a powerful tool for channel estimation in mmWave communications.
With the depletion of spectrum, wireless communication systems turn to exploit large antenna arrays to achieve the degree of freedom in space domain, such as millimeter wave massive multi-input multioutput (MIMO), reconfigurable intelligent surface a ssisted communications and cell-free massive MIMO. In these systems, how to acquire accurate channel state information (CSI) is difficult and becomes a bottleneck of the communication links. In this article, we introduce the concept of channel extrapolation that relies on a small portion of channel parameters to infer the remaining channel parameters. Since the substance of channel extrapolation is a mapping from one parameter subspace to another, we can resort to deep learning (DL), a powerful learning architecture, to approximate such mapping function. Specifically, we first analyze the requirements, conditions and challenges for channel extrapolation. Then, we present three typical extrapolations over the antenna dimension, the frequency dimension, and the physical terminal, respectively. We also illustrate their respective principles, design challenges and DL strategies. It will be seen that channel extrapolation could greatly reduce the transmission overhead and subsequently enhance the performance gains compared with the traditional strategies. In the end, we provide several potential research directions on channel extrapolation for future intelligent communications systems.
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is one of the key techniques to achieve better spectrum and energy efficiency in 5G system. The channel state information (CSI) needs to be fed back from the user equipment to the base station in frequenc y division duplexing (FDD) mode. However, the overhead of the direct feedback is unacceptable due to the large antenna array in massive MIMO system. Recently, deep learning is widely adopted to the compressed CSI feedback task and proved to be effective. In this paper, a novel network named aggregated channel reconstruction network (ACRNet) is designed to boost the feedback performance with network aggregation and parametric rectified linear unit (PReLU) activation. The practical deployment of the feedback network in the communication system is also considered. Specifically, the elastic feedback scheme is proposed to flexibly adapt the network to meet different resource limitations. Besides, the network binarization technique is combined with the feature quantization for lightweight and practical deployment. Experiments show that the proposed ACRNet outperforms loads of previous state-of-the-art networks, providing a neat feedback solution with high performance, low cost and impressive flexibility.
We propose four hybrid combiner/precoder for downlink mmWave massive MU-MIMO systems. The design of a hybrid combiner/precoder is divided in two parts, analog and digital. The system baseband model shows that the signal processed by the mobile statio n can be interpreted as a received signal in the presence of colored Gaussian noise, therefore, since the digital part of the combiner and precoder do not have constraints for their generation, their designs can be based on any traditional signal processing that takes into account this kind of noise. To the best of our knowledge, this was not considered by previous works. A more realistic and appropriate design is described in this paper. Also, the approaches adopted in the literature for the designing of the combiner/precoder analog parts do not try to avoid or even reduce the inter user/symbol interference, they concentrate on increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We propose a simple solution that decreases the interference while maintaining large SNR. In addition, one of the proposed hybrid combiners reaches the maximum value of our objective function according with the Hadamards inequality. Numerical results illustrate the BER performance improvements resulting from our proposals. In addition, a simple detection approach can be used for data estimation without significant performance loss.

Channel estimation is one of the key issues in practical massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Compared with conventional estimation algorithms, deep learning (DL) based ones have exhibited great potential in terms of performance and complexity. In this paper, an attention mechanism, exploiting the channel distribution characteristics, is proposed to improve the estimation accuracy of highly separable channels with narrow angular spread by realizing the divide-and-conquer policy. Specifically, we introduce a novel attention-aided DL channel estimation framework for conventional massive MIMO systems and devise an embedding method to effectively integrate the attention mechanism into the fully connected neural network for the hybrid analog-digital (HAD) architecture. Simulation results show that in both scenarios, the channel estimation performance is significantly improved with the aid of attention at the cost of small complexity overhead. Furthermore, strong robustness under different system and channel parameters can be achieved by the proposed approach, which further strengthens its practical value. We also investigate the distributions of learned attention maps to reveal the role of attention, which endows the proposed approach with a certain degree of interpretability.
