Channel state information estimation for 5G wireless communication systems: Recurrent neural networks approach. En PeerJ Comput Sci (Vol. 7, p. e682). https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj-cs.6822376-5992http://repositoriobibliotecas.uv.cl/handle/uvscl/3124In this study, a deep learning bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) recurrent neural network-based channel state information estimator is proposed for 5G orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems. The proposed estimator is a pilot-dependent estimator and follows the online learning approach in the training phase and the offline approach in the practical implementation phase. The estimator does not deal with complete a priori certainty for channels' statistics and attains superior performance in the presence of a limited number of pilots. A comparative study is conducted using three classification layers that use loss functions: mean absolute error, cross entropy function for kth mutually exclusive classes and sum of squared of the errors. The Adam, RMSProp, SGdm, and Adadelat optimisation algorithms are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed estimator using each classification layer. In terms of symbol error rate and accuracy metrics, the proposed estimator outperforms long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network-based channel state information, least squares and minimum mean square error estimators under different simulation conditions. The computational and training time complexities for deep learning BiLSTM- and LSTM-based estimators are provided. Given that the proposed estimator relies on the deep learning neural network approach, where it can analyse massive data, recognise statistical dependencies and characteristics, develop relationships between features and generalise the accrued knowledge for new datasets that it has not seen before, the approach is promising for any 5G and beyond communication system.en-USBILSTMCHANNELSTATE INFORMATIONESTIMATOR DEEP LEARNINGNEURAL NETWORKSLOSS FUNCTIONSArticulo
