Signal detection algorithms for massive MIMO system

Abstract

As 5G communication networks are maturing, we have higher and higher requirements for the detection of communication signals. In this paper, for the Massive MIMO system signal detection problem, we mainly summarize the detection algorithms that can be used to replace the traditional ZF and MMSE, so as to avoid large-scale matrix inverse and reduce the computational complexity. It mainly includes the general iterative method, typically represented by SSOR, which makes the transmit signal matrix constantly close to the ideal value by iterating; the other is the level expansion class solution method, which takes the order expansion of the level as the initial value of the iteration to accelerate the convergence rate of the algorithm, typically represented by the MLI algorithm. However, today where the demand for communication is gradually increasing and the number of users is constantly getting larger, the performance of the above algorithms may degrade seriously, so the AI signal detection algorithm is a good alternative, which learns autonomously through deep neural networks, including model-driven and data-driven schemes.
