Iterative Signal Detection Based on MSD-CG Method for Uplink Massive MIMO Systems

The fifth generation cellular communication is all about high speed internet access with devices consuming less amount of power. Millimeter wave Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems is a promising technology that offers high data rates due to a large bandwidth. These systems are compact with minimal antenna heights which allows us to deploy these systems more widely. The mm-Wave Massive MIMO systems enhances the data rates to a large extent. But due to the increasing number of antennas to support high data rates, the power consumption of the system goes high. In this paper, a limited channel state information (CSI) based precoding technique has been used to optimize the power consumption and to reduce the computational complexity of the system. The use of Hybrid Precoder architecture with sub array of precoding blocks helps in reducing the computational complexity by many folds. The conditional switching between two stages minimizes the number of computations required. The estimation of Angle of arrival (AoA) enables the precoder to steer the beam at the transmitter for higher throughput. The smart antenna selection algorithm optimizes the power consumption of the system. The two – staged precoding algorithm proposed employs all these techniques to optimize the performance of mm-Wave MIMO systems.

Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) low complexity receiver which utilizes the compressive sensing detection for Spatial Modulation in large scale MIMO system in order to reduce the system complexity. In conventional MIMO system; huge amount of antennas is used at both ends to exploit the multipath propagation. This system maximizes the throughput performance and data rates are increased but only at the cost of high hardware complexity and increased power-consumption. Spatial Modulation Matching Pursuit (SMMP) is the proposed enhanced CS technique used for the improvement of detection performance. Hence, this paper reviews recent research findings concerning normalized Compressive Sensing (CS) detection algorithm, used for Spatial Modulation (SM) in massive MIMO, to lowers the signal processing complexity, which in result improves the energy efficiency of system against that of conventional MIMO system.This strategy is achieved by involving additional structures and sparsity in which a single transmitter antenna or a subset of it is turned on at each case to transmit a certain data. The subset of antenna which is turned on for transmission depends on approaching data bits. Therefore, the total increase in the spectral efficiency of the system is given as base-two logarithm of whole antennas at the transmitter. It reduces the signal processing load at base station and doesn’t depend upon any synchronization between transmitters. The Spatial Modulation Matching Pursuit used prevents the Inter Channel Interference (ICI) of the system which in result improves the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance than the typical MIMO system.

Over the last two decades, multiple‐input, multiple‐output (MIMO) technology has been successfully deployed on a wide scale in cellular communication systems. MIMO technology involves the use of multiple antennas at one or both ends of a communication link to boost the performance and reliability through strategies such as beamforming, diversity transmission, spatial multiplexing, and interference suppression. The currently‐deployed 4G/LTE cellular standards (LTE Rel‐8/9/10) support a comprehensive suite of MIMO techniques for up to eight antenna ports in a single sector on the downlink and up to four transmit antennas at a mobile station.For 5G cellular communications, massive MIMO, sometimes called full dimension MIMO, is a promising technology for enhancing system performance for frequency bands ranging from under 6 GHz to 100 GHz. Also, for 5G systems deployed in higher frequency bands such as cmWaves (6–30 GHz) and mmWaves (30–100GHz), large‐scale antenna arrays will be a prerequisite for overcoming the poor propagation characteristics in those bands.This chapter will describe the basics of massive MIMO and how it will satisfy the high‐data‐rate demands of 5G cellular systems for frequency bands up to 100 GHz. The current state of the art of MIMO technology are reviewed, and the application of large‐scale antenna arrays to 5G are described. The chapter also surveys current trends in massive MIMO technology and system concepts, with a focus on methodologies for significantly enhancing cellular system performance. Various trends and promising concepts are identified, and various practical issues highligh ted.

As a combination of spatial modulation (SM) system and massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, massive SM aided MIMO (SM-MIMO) system is recently proposed. In broadband scenarios, single-carrier (SC) modulation is introduced to massive SM-MIMO system, thus massive SC-SM MIMO system is proposed for uplink multi-user transmission over frequency-selective fading channels. In this study, the uplink spectral efficiency (SE) of multi-cell massive SC-SM MIMO system is analysed, meanwhile the pilot contamination effect is taken into consideration. A tight SE lower bound of multi-cell massive SC-SM MIMO system is proposed with maximum ratio (MR) combining, which also takes into account the imperfect channel estimation, transmit antenna correlation and path loss. The tightness of the authors' proposed closed-form SE lower bound is shown via simulation results. The optimal pilot reuse factor can be determined with different system configurations by simulations, and the pilot reuse factor that is larger than one is more suitable for less TAs and user equipments.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology for wireless communication is considered a key technology for the future fifth-generation (5G) communication networks. To reduce the propagation loss of channel, MIMO systems with analog or digital hybrid precoders and combiners (HPC) architecture have been used. This review paper presents the various types of analog and digital HPC designs for the massive MIMO communication systems that were investigated within the last decade. The reviewed systems are useful for both single-user (SU) and multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) systems. The key parameter of the study was spectral efficiency (SE), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), signal-to-interference pulse noise ratio (SINR), system sum-rate (SR) performance, computational complexity (CC), co-channel interference (CCI), inter-primary base station interference (IPBSI), multiuser interference (MUI), effective desired channel gain (EDCG), and minimum mean square error (MMSE).

This paper presents multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) measurements in the 20-GHz band, and evaluates the basic performance of massive MIMO systems when considering 100 elements at a base station (BS) and seven user equipment units. First, it is shown that zero forcing (ZF) is essential as a transmission scheme in massive MIMO systems, whereas the maximum-ratio combining method cannot reduce interference effectively in such systems. In addition, it is shown that analog–digital hybrid beamforming can be used to reduce the calculation complexity and improve hardware implementation. Next, we compared the Shannon capacity with the achievable bit rate (ABR), using ZF for seven-user MIMO transmissions with 100 elements at the BS. When the number of degrees of freedom in the array antenna is guaranteed, the ABR is almost the same as the Shannon capacity. Moreover, multiuser transmission is realized by linear decoding. Thus, decoding methods such as ZF are effective in massive MIMO systems.

Accurate channel state information (CSI) at base station (BS) is the key to achieve full multiplexing and diversity gain in traditional multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. In frequency-division-duplex (FDD) systems, it is obtained through downlink training and uplink feedback. However, the training and feedback overhead in massive MIMO systems is unacceptable for the large number of antennas equipped at BS. To reduce the CSI feedback overhead and improve CSI quantization accuracy, we propose a limited feedback scheme for spatio-temporal correlated massive MIMO channel. The proposed scheme jointly performs Karhunen-Loève transform (KLT) and polar-cap quantization on CSI. For the compactly deployed antennas at BS, there exists spatial correlation in massive MIMO channel. When the user equipment (UE) moves slowly, adjacent channels feature temporal correlation. The high dimensional and spatial correlated CSI is compressed through KLT. Then the compressed CSI is normalized to be isotropic to perform polar-cap quantization. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme is capable of improving the sum-rate performance with limited feedback bits for massive MIMO systems.

Visible light communication (VLC) building on the existing illumination infrastructure utilizes light emitting diode (LED) luminaries as wireless transmitters. To achieve data rates on the order of gigabits per second in VLC systems, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission has been identified as a key technology. In this paper, we consider a centralized network architecture where the ceiling LED luminaries act as transmitter elements of a distributed massive MIMO VLC system. To obtain the full benefits of massive MIMO, channel state information must be available at the transmitter side. Downlink (DL) channel estimation in a massive MIMO system requires huge pilot overhead in DL as well as feedback overhead in uplink. This makes the implementation of massive MIMO system infeasible if not properly designed. In our study, we address the design of massive MIMO VLC systems with a limited number of DL pilot signals. We explore different DL pilot patterns (PPs) in frequency, time, and spatial domains where interpolation is performed to obtain the global channel matrix taking advantage of the indoor environment geometry and layout of luminaries. We then present data rate results for different DL PPs under the consideration of varying number of active user equipments through Monte-Carlo simulations.

기존 MIMO 시스템 대비 수십 또는 수백 배 많은 송신 안테나들이 설치되어 있는 주파수 분할(frequency division duplex, FDD) 방식의 거대 다중 안테나(massive multiple-input mulitple-output, Massive MIMO)에선 송신 안테나 별 CSI-RS(channel state information reference signal) 전송을 위해 기존 MIMO 시스템 대비 너무 많은 하향 및 상향링크 자원 요소가 필요하다는 한계를 갖는다. 이러한 단점들을 극복하기 위해 본 논문에선 주파수 분할 방식의 거대 다중 안테나 시스템에서 많은 송신 안테나를 사용하더라도 자원요소(resource element, RE)를 재사용함으로써 송신 안테나 수에 비례하지 않는 제한된 양의 하향링크 자원만을 사용하여 CSI-RS를 효과적으로 전송하는 기술 및 자원격자 구조를 제안하였다. Since FDD massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) system deploys hundreds of transmit antennas at base station (BS) compared to conventional MIMO system, the overhead of transmitting channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) increases proportionally to the number of transmit-antennas. To overcome these disadvantages, we proposed beamforming based CSI-RS transmission technique for FDD massive MIMO system which transmit CSI-RS by limited amount of downlink resources.

This chapter is attempted to provide a survey of the advanced concepts and related issues involved in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems. MIMO system technology has been considered as a really significant foundation on which to build the next and future generations of wireless networks. The chapter addresses advanced MIMO techniques such as polarization diversity and antenna selection. We gradually provide an overview of the MIMO features from basic to more advanced topics. The first sections of this chapter start by introducing the key aspects of theMIMO theory. TheMIMO systemmodel is first presented in a genericway. Then, we proceed to describe diversity schemes used in MIMO systems. MIMO technology could exploit several diversity techniques beyond the spatial diversity. These techniques essentially cover frequency diversity, time diversity and polarization diversity. We further provide the reader with a geometrically based models for MIMO systems. The virtue of this channel modeling is to adopt realisticmethods for modeling the spatio-temporal channel statistics from a physical wave-propagation viewpoint. Two classes for MIMO channel modeling will be described. These models involve the Geometry-based Stochastic ChannelModels (GSCM) and the Stochastic channel models. Besides the listedMIMO channel models already described, we derive and discuss capacity formulas for transmission over MIMO systems. The achieved MIMO capacities highlight the potential of spatial diversity for improving the spectral efficiency of MIMO channels. When Channel State Information (CSI) is available at both ends of the transmission link, the MIMO system capacity is optimally derived by using adaptive power allocation based on water-filling technique. The chapter continues by examining the combining techniques for multiple antenna systems. Combining techniques are motivated for MIMO systems since they enable the signal to noise ratio (SNR) maximization at the combiner output. The fundamental combing techniques are the Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC), the Selection Combining (SC) and the Equal Gain Combining(EGC). Once the combining techniques are analyzed, the reader is introduced to the beamforming processing as an optimal strategy for combining. The use of multiple antennas significantly improves the channel spectral efficiency. Nevertheless, this induces higher system complexity of the communication system and the communication system performance is effected due to correlation between antennas that need to be deployed at the same terminal. As such, the antenna selection algorithm for MIMO systems is presented. To elaborate on this point, we introduce Space time coding techniques for MIMO systems and we evaluate by simulation the performance of the communication system. Next, we emphasis on multi polarization techniques for MIMO systems. As a background, we presume that the reader has a thorough understanding of antenna theory. We recall the basic antenna theory and concepts that are used throughout the rest of the chapter. We rigorously introduce the 3D channel model over the Non-Line of Sight (NLOS) propagation channel for MIMO system with polarized antennas. We treat the depolarization phenomena and we study its effect on MIMO system capacity. The last section of the chapter provides a scenario for collaborative sensor nodes performing distributed MIMO system model which is devoted to sensor node localization in Wireless Sensor Networks. The localization algorithm is based on beamforming processing and was tested by simulation. Our chapter provides the reader by simulation examples for almost all the topics that have been treated for MIMO system development and key issues affecting achieved performance.

Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology has evolved over the past few years into a technology with great potential to drive the direction of future wireless communications. MIMO technology has become a solid reality when massive MIMO systems (MIMO with large number of antennas and transceivers) were commercially deployed in several countries across the world in the recent past. Moreover, MIMO has been integrated into state-of-the-art paradigms such as fifth-generation (5G) networks as one of the main enabling technologies. MIMO possesses many attractive and highly desirable properties such as spatial multiplexing, diversity gains, and adaptive beamforming gains that leads to high data rates, enhanced reliability, and other enhancements. Nevertheless, beyond 5G technologies demand wireless communication systems with, among other properties, immensely higher data rates and better reliability simultaneously at the same time. In this work, a new, novel MIMO technique for simultaneously achieving multiplexing and diversity gains as well as completely eliminating any processing at the MIMO receiver, leading to advantages such as low complexity and low power consumption, is proposed. The proposed technique employs the design of interference-canceling matrices, which are calculated from the channels between the transceiver antennas, where the matrices are employed at the base station to help achieve multiplexing and diversity gains simultaneously. The novelty and efficiency of the introduced paradigm is demonstrated via mathematical models and validated by Monte Carlo simulations. Results indicate that the proposed system outperforms conventional MIMO models.

A new graph modulation scheme is proposed for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with a large number of transmit antennas. Each data symbol is transmitted in the form of multiple weighted replicas. The replicas from different symbols are multiplexed onto a two-dimensional (2D) space-time grid, which is formed by multiple transmit antennas in the space domain and different transmission instants in the time domain. Multiplexing repeated symbols onto a 2D space-time grid achieves performance gains in terms of both diversity gain and high degree-of-freedom of the received signals. In addition, it enables a bipartite graph representation of the system, with one set of nodes being the transmitted symbols and the other set containing the received space-time samples. A modified message passing algorithm is proposed to iteratively detect the transmitted symbols by exploiting the structure of the bipartite graph. The proposed graph modulation scheme can flexibly adjust the tradeoff among energy efficiency, spectral efficiency, space diversity, and detection complexity by choosing different design parameters based on application requirements. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach can achieve significant performance gains over the conventional spatial multiplexing scheme used in MIMO systems.

Massive MIMO is an extension of MIMO (Multiple-input Multiple-output), which essentially groups together several number of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas in order to provide better spectrum efficiency and better throughput. Massive MIMO technology will almost be a key component of the super-fast 5G networks of the future generation. However, the Multiple User Interference (MUL) is the major problem that needs to be address to detect each user appropriately at the base station. Hence, detection of encoded signals is one of the crucial receiver functions in MIMO wireless communication. The well-known detection algorithms like Zero forcing detector (ZF) and MMSE provides less complex design at the cost of reduced performance. Maximum Likelihood detector (ML) gives the optimal performance, but its computational complexity limits its usage in practical systems. Thus, to balance the trade-off between complexity and performance, the suboptimal Likelihood Ascent Search (LAS) algorithm has been proposed. However, the LAS algorithm detection performance depends on selection of initial solution. So, we propose Neighborhood search algorithm to select the initial vector and this healthy initial vector can be used for LAS algorithm to find solution. This algorithm is iterative in nature and it searches for that vector which minimizes the maximum likelihood (ML) cost in the neighborhood. The proposed algorithm is expected to balance the tradeoff between performance and complexity of design.

Large scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) or Massive MIMO is one of the pivotal technologies for future wireless networks. However, the performance of massive MIMO systems heavily relies on accurate channel estimation. While the acquisition of channel state information (CSI) in such systems requires an increasingly large amount of training overhead as the number of users grows. To tackle this issue, in this paper, we propose a deep learning assisted blind channel estimation technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based massive MIMO systems. We prove that by exploiting the asymptotic orthogonality of the massive MIMO channels, the channel distortion can be averaged out without the prior knowledge of channel impulse responses, and after some mathematical manipulation, different users' transmitted data symbols can be extracted. Thus, by deploying a denoising convolutional neural network algorithm (DnCNN), we mitigate a remaining channel and noise effect to accurately detect the transmitted data symbols at the channel sounding stage. Using the detected data symbols as virtual pilots, we estimate the CSI of all the users at each BS antennas. Our simulation results testify the efficacy of our proposed technique and demonstrate that it can provide a mean square error (MSE) performance which coincides with that of the data-aided channel estimation technique.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have been drawing considerable interest. In the uplink, massive MIMO systems are commonly studied assuming that each base station (BS) decodes the signals of its user terminals separately and linearly while treating all interference as noise. Although this approach provides improved spectral efficiency (SE) in favorable channel conditions, it is generally sub-optimal from an information-theoretic perspective. In this work we characterize the SE of massive MIMO when the BSs are allowed to jointly decode the received signals. We consider two schemes for handling the interference, and derive their SEs for both finite and asymptotic number of antennas. Simulation tests of the proposed methods illustrate their gains in SE compared to standard separate linear decoding, and show that the standard approach fails to capture the actual achievable rates of massive MIMO systems, particularly when the interference is dominant.
