Beamforming Design Via GNN in mmWave Cell-Free Massive MIMO Using Sub-6 GHz CSI

Beamforming methods in millimeter-wave (mmWave) cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CFmMIMO) systems require accurate channel state information (CSI), whose acquisition entails significant training overhead. This paper shows that fully digital cell-free mmWave beamforming can be effectively learned from sub-6 GHz CSI using a graph neural network (GNN). Specifically, we represent a CFmMIMO system as a wireless graph, and the GNN is trained to approximate beamformers that maximize the downlink sum-rate based on the available sub-6 GHz CSI. A message-passing mechanism is proposed to capture inter-user interference and inter-base-station cooperation across different network topologies. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed sub-6 GHz-assisted GNN-based beamformer achieves competitive and often superior sum-rate performance compared to classical baselines that rely on full mmWave CSI.
