A Deep Learning-Based Intelligent Receiver for Improving the Reliability of the MIMO Wireless Communication System

Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) technology is one of the most widely used communication technologies. However, with the increasing number of antennas, the complexity of the MIMO wireless communication receiver becomes higher and higher. On the other hand, the complex communication channels also raise up a great challenge to the reliability of the communication receiver system. With the rapid development and wide application of deep learning, it has been applied in the field of communication to solve some problems that are difficult to solve by the traditional methods, and thereby, improves the reliability of communication systems. Inspired by this idea, this article reviewed the signal processing process of the MIMO receiver system from the perspective of system reliability. Based on deep learning, the signal processing modules of the receiver system are jointly optimized, which changes the information recovery process of the traditional receiver and proposes the intelligent receiver for MIMO communication. In order to verify the system reliability of the intelligent receiver, this article analyzes it from the aspects of antenna numbers and channel conditions. The influence of different implementation methods of the intelligent receiver on the system reliability is also analyzed. Simulation results show that the proposed intelligent receiver for the MIMO wireless communication can recover information with a lower bit error rate and higher reliability compared with the traditional receiver under different conditions and antenna configurations.
