A Linear Bayesian Learning Receiver Scheme for Massive MIMO Systems (2110.14138v1)

Abstract: Much stringent reliability and processing latency requirements in ultra-reliable-low-latency-communication (URLLC) traffic make the design of linear massive multiple-input-multiple-output (M-MIMO) receivers becomes very challenging. Recently, Bayesian concept has been used to increase the detection reliability in minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) linear receivers. However, the latency processing time is a major concern due to the exponential complexity of matrix inversion operations in MMSE schemes. This paper proposes an iterative M-MIMO receiver that is developed by using a Bayesian concept and a parallel interference cancellation (PIC) scheme, referred to as a linear Bayesian learning (LBL) receiver. PIC has a linear complexity as it uses a combination of maximum ratio combining (MRC) and decision statistic combining (DSC) schemes to avoid matrix inversion operations. Simulation results show that the bit-error-rate (BER) and latency processing performances of the proposed receiver outperform the ones of MMSE and best Bayesian-based receivers by minimum $2$ dB and $19$ times for various M-MIMO system configurations.
