Optimizing a hybrid beamforming transmitter is a non-convex problem and requires channel state information, leading in most cases to nontrivial feedback overhead. We propose a methodology relying on the principles of deep generative models and unfolding to achieve near-optimal hybrid beamforming with reduced feedback and computational complexity. We first represent the channel as a low-dimensional manifold via a generative adversarial network (GAN) and search the optimum digital and analog precoders in this low-dimensional space. To decrease the search complexity, we find an iteration rule by formulating hybrid beamforming as a bi-level optimization problem and then unfold each iteration as a neural layer. This results in a novel model-based deep neural network that incorporates domain knowledge. Our results show that this method (i) approaches the capacity-achieving spectral efficiency, (ii) provides a superior energy and spectral efficiency tradeoff, (iii) decreases feedback overhead, and (iv) reduces the complexity significantly, by optimizing a single low-dimensional vector per channel coherence time, with the neural network itself trained offline. The achieved spectral efficiency is robust when tested with realistic 3GPP channel models, even if the offline training relies on a simple geometric channel model.

Wideband Channel Estimation With a Generative Adversarial Network
Balevi, Eren; Andrews, Jeffrey G. (2021-05-01)
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 excessive 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 v...
Downlink transmission techniques for multi user multi input multi output wireless communications
Coşkun, Adem; Candan, Çağatay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
Multi-user MIMO (MIMO-MU) communication techniques make use of available channel state information at the transmitter to mitigate the inter-user interference. The goal of these techniques is to provide the least interference at the mobile stations by applying a precoding operation. In this thesis a comparison of available techniques in the literature such as Channel Decomposition, SINR Balancing, Joint-MMSE optimization is presented. Novel techniques for the MIMO multi-user downlink communication systems, w...
High Dimensional Channel Estimation Using Deep Generative Networks
Balevi, Eren; Doshi, Akash; Jalal, Ajil; Dimakis, Alexandros; Andrews, Jeffrey G. (2021-01-01)
This paper presents a novel compressed sensing (CS) approach to high dimensional wireless channel estimation by optimizing the input to a deep generative network. Channel estimation using generative networks relies on the assumption that the reconstructed channel lies in the range of a generative model. Channel reconstruction using generative priors outperforms conventional CS techniques and requires fewer pilots. It also eliminates the need of a priori knowledge of the sparsifying basis, instead using the ...
Measurement reduction for mutual coupling calibration in DOA estimation
Aksoy, Taylan; Tuncer, Temel Engin (2012-05-17)
Mutual coupling is an important source of error in antenna arrays that should be compensated for super resolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) algorithms, such as Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm. A crucial step in array calibration is the determination of the mutual coupling coefficients for the antenna array. In this paper, a system theoretic approach is presented for the mutual coupling characterization of antenna arrays. The comprehension and implementation of this approach is simple leadi...
An Efficient Hybrid Beamforming and Channel Acquisition for Wideband mm-Wave Massive MIMO Channels
Kurt, Anıl; Güvensen, Gökhan Muzaffer (2019-01-01)
In this paper, an efficient hybrid beamforming architecture together with a novel spatio-temporal receiver processing is proposed for single-carrier (SC) mm-wave wideband massive MIMO channels in time-domain duplex (TDD) mode. The design of two-stage beamformers is realized by using a virtual sectorization via second-order channel statistics based user grouping. The novel feature of the proposed architecture is that the effect of both inter-group-interference (due to non-orthogonality of virtual angular sec...
