Machine Learning Enabled Signal Processing Techniques for Large Scale 5G and 5G Networks
Description
Massive explorations in 5G and 5G communication technologies have envisioned the need for large-scale wireless networks that are potentially capable of handling high data traffic without compromising on the link reliability. This specific requirement demands architectural developments in wireless networks to support the data-hungry mobile communication systems. One of the critical aspects of large-scale wireless networks is the efficiency of the resources in the wireless system. The 5G and 5G technologies are engineered to work seamlessly in heterogeneous platforms unlike 2G, 3G, and 4G wireless networks. This heterogeneous nature includes the mobile devices, signal processing techniques, associated spectrum allocation, and most importantly the network model.
To meet the needs of this heterogeneity in 5G and 5G wireless systems, researchers constantly focus on the implementation of novel and robust signal processing algorithms. In addition, efficiency and performance enhancement can be achieved by adopting machine learning techniques that are supposed to empower the signal processing algorithms. The signal processing algorithms that use machine learning techniques are anticipated to improve the channel capacity, link reliability, device compatibility, and thereby enhance the user flexibility in adopting the technology.
This Special Issue is targeted to consolidate the theory and prospective implementation of machine learning algorithms in future wireless systems. Furthermore, machine learning techniques play a pivotal role in antenna modeling for large-scale wireless systems. We welcome original research and review articles.
