摘要
随着大规模MIMO系统中天线数的增长,获取信道状态信息(channel state information at the transmitter,CSIT)所需的下行信道训练开销和上行反馈开销变得非常巨大。针对信道估计开销过大的问题,提出了一种新的CSIT估计方案和基于低秩矩阵完备的信道估计算法。在所提方案中,基站发送训练信号给各个用户之后,用户直接将其观测信号反馈给基站,并在基站端进行统一的CSIT估计。然后,利用大规模MIMO信道矩阵的特点,将信道估计问题转换为低秩矩阵完备问题,从而可以利用软阈值算法恢复出所有用户的信道状态信息。仿真结果表明,该算法可以获得精确的信道状态信息,并有效地减少了信道估计开销和复杂度。
With the number of transmit antennas increases largely in massive MIMO system,the training and feedback overhead for the acquisition of CSIT becomes rather overwhelming. In order to solve the problem of huge overhead of channel estimation,this paper proposed a new CSIT estimation scheme and a channel estimation algorithm based on low-rank complete matrix. In this scenario,after the base station transmits training signals to each user,the users directly send back the observed signals to the base station and then the joint CSIT acquisition problem could be realized at the base station. Then,by using the property of massive MIMO channel matrix,the recovery of the CSIT of all users could be transformed into a low-rank matrix completion problem,which could be efficiently solved by using the proposed soft threshold operator( STO) algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve accurate CSIT with lower overhead and complexity.
