Learning-Based Massive Beamforming
Developing resource allocation algorithms with strong real-time and high efficiency has been an imperative topic in wireless networks. Conventional optimization-based iterative resource allocation algorithms often suffer from slow convergence, especially for massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) beamforming problems. This paper studies learning-based efficient massive beamforming methods for multi-user MIMO networks. The considered massive beamforming problem is challenging in two aspects. First, the beamforming matrix to be learned is quite high-dimensional in case with a massive number of antennas. Second, the objective is often time-varying and the solution space is not fixed due to some communication requirements. All these challenges make learning representation for massive beamforming an extremely difficult task. In this paper, by exploiting the structure of the most popular WMMSE beamforming solution, we propose convolutional massive beamforming neural networks (CMBNN) using both supervised and unsupervised learning schemes with particular design of network structure and input/output. Numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed CMBNN in terms of running time and system throughput.
