Machine Learning for Future Wireless Communications

This project-seminar introduces the basics concepts of the signal processing algorithms and cross-layer procedures for extremely large so-called Massive MIMO systems and mobile communication networks of the 5th generation (5G).
In Massive MIMO systems the number of base transmit and receive antennas at the base station are scaled up, as compared to usual MIMO systems, by several orders of magnitude.In this seminar we investigate advanced signal processing algorithms which allow to exploit the advantages of Massive MIMO in an optimum way (which are high data rate, high reliability, favorable propagation characteristics), to cope with the enormous date volume (linear signal processing) and to master the challenges (pilot contamination, low-cost hardware). Massive MIMO is an integral part of the emerginjg 5G mobile communication networks. In the course of the seminar the fundamental concepts and challenges of 5G networks will be discussed. It includes concepts as Small Cells, Cloud RAN, Network Virtualization, Network slicing, Machine-to-Machine communication, Millimeter Wave Transmission, Flexible Waveforms, etc.
