    查看更多>>摘要:Hybrid precoder design is a key tech-nique providing better antenna gain and reduced hard-ware complexity in millimeter-wave(mmWave)mas-sive multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)systems.In this paper,Gaussian Mixture learned approximate message passing(GM-LAMP)network is presented for the design of optimal hybrid precoders suitable for mmWave Massive MIMO systems.Optimal hybrid precoder designs using a compressive sensing scheme such as orthogonal matching pursuit(OMP)and its derivatives results in high computational complexity when the dimensionality of the sparse signal is high.This drawback can be addressed using classical iter-ative algorithms such as approximate message pass-ing(AMP),which has comparatively low computa-tional complexity.The drawbacks of AMP algorithm are fixed shrinkage parameter and non-consideration of prior distribution of the hybrid precoders.In this paper,the fixed shrinkage parameter problem of the AMP algorithm is addressed using learned AMP(LAMP)network,and is further enhanced as GM-LAMP network using the concept of Gaussian Mix-ture distribution of the hybrid precoders.The simula-tion results show that the proposed GM-LAMP net-work achieves optimal hybrid precoder design with enhanced achievable rates,better accuracy and low computational complexity compared to the existing al-gorithms.
