Deep learning-based time-varying channel estimation with basis expansion model for MIMO-OFDM system

For high-speed mobile MIMO-OFDM system,a low-complexity deep learning(DL) based timevarying channel estimation scheme is proposed.To reduce the number of estimated parameters,the basis expansion model(BEM) is employed to model the time-varying channel,which converts the channel estimation into the estimation of the basis coefficient.Specifically,the initial basis coefficients are firstly used to train the neural network in an offline manner,and then the high-precision channel estimation can be obtained by small number of inputs.Moreover,the linear minimum mean square error(LMMSE) estimated channel is considered for the loss function in training phase,which makes the proposed method more practical.Simulation results show that the proposed method has a better performance and lower computational complexity compared with the available schemes,and it is robust to the fast time-varying channel in the high-speed mobile scenarios.

ESTIMATION OF BASIS EXPANSION MODELS FOR DOUBLY SELECTIVE CHANNELS

By analyzing the relationship between Basis Expansion Model (BEM) and Doppler spectrum, this letter proposed a quasi-MMSE-based BEM estimation scheme for doubly selective channels. Based on the assumption that the basis coefficients are approximately independent and have the same variance for the same channel tap, the quasi-MMSE estimation shows approximately optimal performance and is robust to noise. Moreover, it can avoid a high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) by using continuous pilots. Performance of the proposed estimation scheme has been shown with computer simulations.

Joint Multi-Domain Channel Estimation Based on Sparse Bayesian Learning for OTFS System

Since orthogonal time-frequency space(OTFS)can effectively handle the problems caused by Doppler effect in high-mobility environment,it has gradually become a promising candidate for modulation scheme in the next generation of mobile communication.However,the inter-Doppler interference(IDI)problem caused by fractional Doppler poses great challenges to channel estimation.To avoid this problem,this paper proposes a joint time and delayDoppler(DD)domain based on sparse Bayesian learning(SBL)channel estimation algorithm.Firstly,we derive the original channel response(OCR)from the time domain channel impulse response(CIR),which can reflect the channel variation during one OTFS symbol.Compare with the traditional channel model,the OCR can avoid the IDI problem.After that,the dimension of OCR is reduced by using the basis expansion model(BEM)and the relationship between the time and DD domain channel model,so that we have turned the underdetermined problem into an overdetermined problem.Finally,in terms of sparsity of channel in delay domain,SBL algorithm is used to estimate the basis coefficients in the BEM without any priori information of channel.The simulation results show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed channel estimation algorithm.

Deep Learning-Based Symbol Detection for Time-Varying Nonstationary Channels

The highly dynamic channel(HDC)in an extremely dynamic environment mainly has fast timevarying nonstationary characteristics.In this article,we focus on the most difficult HDC case,where the channel coherence time is less than the symbol period.To this end,we propose a symbol detector based on a long short-term memory(LSTM)neural network.Taking the sampling sequence of each received symbol as the LSTM unit's input data has the advantage of making full use of received information to obtain better performance.In addition,using the basic expansion model(BEM)as the preprocessing unit significantly reduces the number of neural network parameters.Finally,the simulation part uses the highly dynamic plasma sheath channel(HDPSC)data measured from shock tube experiments.The results show that the proposed BEM-LSTM-based detector has better performance and does not require channel estimation or channel model information.

Application of Nonlinear Predictive Control Based on RBF Network Predictive Model in MCFC Plant

This paper described a nonlinear model predictive controller for regulating a molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC). A detailed mechanism model of output voltage of a MCFC was presented at first. However, this model was too complicated to be used in a control system. Consequently, an off line radial basis function (RBF) network was introduced to build a nonlinear predictive model. And then, the optimal control sequences were obtained by applying golden mean method. The models and controller have been realized in the MATLAB environment. Simulation results indicate the proposed algorithm exhibits satisfying control effect even when the current densities vary largely.

Over-sampling basis expansion model aided channel estimation for OFDM systems with ICI

The rapid variation of channel can induce the intercarrier interference in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing （OFDM） systems. Intercarrier interference will significantly increase the difficulty of OFDM channel estimation because too many channel coefficients need be estimated. In this article, a novel channel estimator is proposed to resolve the above problem. This estimator consists of two parts： the channel parameter estimation unit （CPEU）, which is used to estimate the number of channel taps and the multipath time delays, and the channel coefficient estimation unit （CCEU）, which is used to estimate the channel coefficients by using the estimated channel parameters provided by CPEU. In CCEU, the over-sampling basis expansion model is resorted to solve the problem that a large number of channel coefficients need to be estimated. Finally, simulation results are given to scale the performance of the proposed scheme.

Detection of Cholangiocarcinoma with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Radial Basis Function Neural Network Classification

The aim of this study was to explore the possibility of applying Fourier transform infrared（FTIR） spec- troscopy as a medical diagnostic toot based on a neural network classifier for detecting and classifying cholangiocar- cinoma. A total of 51 cases of bile duct tissues were obtained and later characterized by FTIR spectroscopy prior to pathological diagnosis. The criteria for classification included 30 parameters for each FTIR spectra, including peak position（P）, intensity（/） and full width at half-maximum（FWHM）, were measured, calculated and subsequently com- pared against the normal and cancer groups. The FTIR spectra were classified by the radial basis function（RBF） net- work model. For establishing the RBF, 23 cases were used to train the RBF classifier, and 28 cases were applied to validate the model. Using the RFB model, nine parameters were observed to be pronouncedly different between can- cerous and normal tissue, including I1640, I1550, 11460,/1400, I1250, I1120,/10g0, Ii040 and P1040. In the RBF training classi- fication, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of diagnosis were 82.6%, 80.0%, and 84.6%, respectively. While validating the classification, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of diagnosis were 78.6%, 75.0%, and 81.2%, respectively. The results suggest that FTIR spectroscopy combined with neural network classifier could be applied as a medical diagnostic tool in cholangiocarcinoma diagnosis.

CFD-based hull optimization in calm water using adaptive grid deformation method

This paper presents an adaptive grid deformation technique for optimizing ship hull forms using computational fluid dynamics(CFD).The proposed method enables accurate and smooth updates of the hull surface and 3-D CFD grids in response to design variables.This technique incorporates a two-level point-transformation approach to move the grid points by a few design points.Initially,generic B-splines are utilized to transform grid points according to the displacements of the control points within a defined control box.This ensures surface modification accuracy and smoothness,similar to those provided by non-uniform rational B-splines.Subsequently,radial basis functions are used to interpolate the movements of the control points with a limited set of design points.The developed method effectively maintains the mesh quality and simulation efficiency.By applying this method to surface and grid adaptation,a regression model is proposed in the form of a second-order polynomial to represent the relationship between the geometric parameters and design variables.This polynomial is then used to introduce geometric constraints.Furthermore,a radial basis function surrogate model for the calm-water resistance is constructed to approximate the objective function.An enhanced optimization framework is proposed for CFD–based hull optimization and applied to KVLCC2 to validate its feasibility and efficiency.

High data transmission rates and high mobility give rise to time- and frequency-selectivity in wireless communication channels. This paper investigated time and frequency doubly selective channel estimation using pilot tones among Multi-Input Multi-Output （MIMO） orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （OFDM）. Firstly, a complex exponential basis expansion channel model （BECM） was introduced to represent doubly selective channel during an OFDM symbol period; then, based on BECM, an effective MIMO-OFDM doubly selective channel estimation method was presented; finally, the optimality in designing pilot tones parameters was done according to the minimization of channel estimation MSE, mainly including the number, the placement and the structure of pilot tones. Simulation results show that the proposed estimation method has good performance in doubly selective channel scenarios and confirms the theoretical analysis findings.
