Jointly Sparse Support Recovery via Deep Auto-encoder with Applications in MIMO-based Grant-Free Random Access for mMTC
In this paper, a data-driven approach is proposed to jointly design the
common sensing (measurement) matrix and jointly support recovery method for
complex signals, using a standard deep auto-encoder for real numbers. The
auto-encoder in the proposed approach includes an encoder that mimics the noisy
linear measurement process for jointly sparse signals with a common sensing
matrix, and a decoder that approximately performs jointly sparse support
recovery based on the empirical covariance matrix of noisy linear measurements.
The proposed approach can effectively utilize the feature of common support and
properties of sparsity patterns to achieve high recovery accuracy, and has
significantly shorter computation time than existing methods. We also study an
application example, i.e., device activity detection in Multiple-Input
Multiple-Output (MIMO)-based grant-free random access for massive machine type
communications (mMTC). The numerical results show that the proposed approach
can provide pilot sequences and device activity detection with better detection
accuracy and substantially shorter computation time than well-known recovery
methods.Comment: 5 pages, 8 figures, to be publised in IEEE SPAWC 2020. arXiv admin

Thirty Years of Machine Learning: The Road to Pareto-Optimal Wireless Networks
Future wireless networks have a substantial potential in terms of supporting
a broad range of complex compelling applications both in military and civilian
fields, where the users are able to enjoy high-rate, low-latency, low-cost and
reliable information services. Achieving this ambitious goal requires new radio
techniques for adaptive learning and intelligent decision making because of the
complex heterogeneous nature of the network structures and wireless services.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have great success in supporting big data
analytics, efficient parameter estimation and interactive decision making.
Hence, in this article, we review the thirty-year history of ML by elaborating
on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and deep
learning. Furthermore, we investigate their employment in the compelling
applications of wireless networks, including heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
cognitive radios (CR), Internet of things (IoT), machine to machine networks
(M2M), and so on. This article aims for assisting the readers in clarifying the
motivation and methodology of the various ML algorithms, so as to invoke them
for hitherto unexplored services as well as scenarios of future wireless
networks.Comment: 46 pages, 22 fig
Massive MIMO is a Reality -- What is Next? Five Promising Research Directions for Antenna Arrays
Massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) is no longer a "wild" or
"promising" concept for future cellular networks - in 2018 it became a reality.
Base stations (BSs) with 64 fully digital transceiver chains were commercially
deployed in several countries, the key ingredients of Massive MIMO have made it
into the 5G standard, the signal processing methods required to achieve
unprecedented spectral efficiency have been developed, and the limitation due
to pilot contamination has been resolved. Even the development of fully digital
Massive MIMO arrays for mmWave frequencies - once viewed prohibitively
complicated and costly - is well underway. In a few years, Massive MIMO with
fully digital transceivers will be a mainstream feature at both sub-6 GHz and
mmWave frequencies. In this paper, we explain how the first chapter of the
Massive MIMO research saga has come to an end, while the story has just begun.
The coming wide-scale deployment of BSs with massive antenna arrays opens the
door to a brand new world where spatial processing capabilities are
omnipresent. In addition to mobile broadband services, the antennas can be used
for other communication applications, such as low-power machine-type or
ultra-reliable communications, as well as non-communication applications such
as radar, sensing and positioning. We outline five new Massive MIMO related
research directions: Extremely large aperture arrays, Holographic Massive MIMO,
Six-dimensional positioning, Large-scale MIMO radar, and Intelligent Massive
MIMO.Comment: 20 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Digital Signal Processin
