Abstract:

Massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) is one of the key technologies, as 5G and future mobile wireless networks continue to evolve. With the increasing number of antennas, the design of receivers has brought a huge challenge, and detection algorithms with too much complexity are difficult to be applied in practice. In this paper, a high-parallelism (HP) detection algorithm is developed into a neural network, the single-layer neural network is based on each iteration of this algorithm, which is combined with trainable weighted parameters and nonlinear neural units, and the network structure HP-Net is proposed. Optimal trainable parameters are obtained by training the HP-Net, which in turn improves the detection performance. The experimental results show that the paper method is less complex and can obtain lower bit error rate (BER) than the traditional minimum mean square error (MMSE) algorithm, and has better BER performance than the HP detection algorithm.
