Summary: Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a crucial technology in modern wireless communication systems. This paper investigates the performance and computational complexity of matrix decomposition based detectors in realistic channel scenarios for various massive MIMO configurations. The study compares data detectors based on decomposition algorithms with approximate-inversion detection (AID) methods. The results demonstrate the promising performance and stability of the alternating-direction-method-of-multipliers-based-Infinity-Norm (ADMIN) detection, even in environments with a small ratio of base-station (BS) antenna elements to the number of users. Additionally, this research examines the performance of several detectors in imperfect channel state information (CSI) and correlated channels. It provides valuable insights for the selection of appropriate massive MIMO detectors by massive MIMO systems and very large-scale integration (VLSI) designers based on their specifications.

Summary: This paper discusses the use of accelerated Chebyshev SOR (AC-SOR) and accelerated Chebyshev AOR (AC-AOR) algorithms to improve the performance of conventional Successive Over-Relaxation (SOR) and Accelerated Over-Relaxation (AOR) methods in massive MIMO systems. Additionally, a deep unfolding network (DUN) is proposed to optimize the parameters of the iterative AC-SOR and AC-AOR algorithms, leading to the AC-AORNet and AC-SORNet methods. The results show that the proposed DUN-based methods outperform other state-of-the-art algorithms, especially for high-order modulations such as 256-QAM.

Summary: This paper introduces the random iterative method to massive MIMO systems for efficient downlink linear precoding. By incorporating random sampling into traditional iterative methods, the matrix inversion in linear precoding schemes can be statistically approximated, resulting in faster convergence with low complexity and global convergence without convergence requirements. The paper proposes the randomized iterative precoding algorithm (RIPA) and shows that its approximation error decays exponentially and globally with the number of iterations. Furthermore, the concept of conditional sampling is introduced to optimize and enhance the convergence and efficiency of the randomized iterations. The modified randomized iterative precoding algorithm (MRIPA) is then presented based on the equivalent iteration transformation, achieving better precoding performance with low complexity for various scenarios of massive MIMO. Simulation results demonstrate the system gains of RIPA and MRIPA in terms of performance and complexity in downlink precoding for massive MIMO systems.

Summary: This paper addresses the challenge of acquiring channel state information (CSI) in Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) massive MIMO. A novel CSI feedback framework is proposed based on the partial reciprocity of uplink and downlink channels in the wideband regime. The paper derives the rank expression of the wideband massive MIMO channel covariance matrix and identifies a low-rankness property. A partial channel reciprocity (PCR) codebook scheme is proposed, which outperforms the latest codebook in 5G in terms of performance, complexity, and feedback requirements. Simulations with practical channel models demonstrate the significant gains and practicality of the proposed methods for 5G and beyond.

Summary: More spectrum bands are needed due to the increase in wireless applications. However, adapting the spectrum bands to new applications has become difficult, leading to a crowded spectrum and decreased quality of service. Cognitive radio, specifically spectrum sensing, is a promising technology to address this issue. In this study, a novel 5G spectrum sensing technique using a hybrid matched filter algorithm was implemented, and its performance was compared to traditional matched filtering in different channels. The hybrid matched filter demonstrated superior effectiveness in both Rayleigh and Rician channels.
