X. Shen, J. Gao, W. Wu, K. Lyu, M. Li, W. Zhuang, X. Li, and J. Rao The integration of communications with different scales, diverse radio access technologies, and various network resources, renders next-generation wireless networks (NGWNs) highly heterogeneous and dynamic. Emerging use cases and applications—such as machine to machine communications, autonomous driving, and factoryRead More
M. S. Safari, M. Sadegh, and S. Sodagari To remove the need for signaling overhead of feedback channels for transmitter channel state information (CSI) in Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD), we propose using convolutional neural networks and generative adversarial networks (GANs) to infer the downlink (DL) CSI by observing the uplink (UL) CSI. Our data-driven schemeRead More
