摘要翻译:
我们研究了在大阵列基站(BS)中使用机器学习技术估计用户信道特征的可行性。在我们考虑的场景中,用户导频广播由BS观察和处理,以提取关于传播信道特征的到达角(AoA)特定信息,如接收信号强度和相对路径延迟。感兴趣的问题涉及使用该信息来预测用户信道中主要传播路径的偏离角(AoD),即,在BS处不能直接观察到的信道特征。为了完成这一任务,在同一传播环境中收集的数据被用来训练神经网络。我们的研究依赖于射线追踪通道数据,这些数据是根据日本东京著名热点新宿广场的测量进行校准的。我们证明了BS侧的观测特征与用户侧的角度特征是相关的。我们训练神经网络,利用BS处测量特征的不同组合来推断用户处的未知参数。基于标准统计性能指标的评估表明,这种数据驱动的方法有潜力从观测到的信道特征预测未观测到的信道特征。

英文摘要:
We investigate the viability of using machine-learning techniques for estimating user-channel features at a large-array base station (BS). In the scenario we consider, user-pilot broadcasts are observed and processed by the BS to extract angle-of-arrival (AoA) specific information about propagation-channel features, such as received signal strength and relative path delay. The problem of interest involves using this information to predict the angle-of-departure (AoD) of the dominant propagation paths in the user channels, i.e., channel features not directly observable at the BS. To accomplish this task, the data collected in the same propagation environment are used to train neural networks. Our studies rely on ray-tracing channel data that have been calibrated against measurements from Shinjuku Square, a famous hotspot in Tokyo, Japan. We demonstrate that the observed features at the BS side are correlated with the angular features at the user side. We train neural networks that exploit different combinations of measured features at the BS to infer the unknown parameters at the users. The evaluation based on standard statistical performance metrics suggests that such data-driven methods have the potential to predict unobserved channel features from observed ones.
