NEURAL NETWORK-BASED CHANNEL ESTIMATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18352825 titled 'NEURAL NETWORK-BASED CHANNEL ESTIMATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a method and apparatus for channel estimation in a communication system using a neural network.

  • The method involves obtaining location information of a communication apparatus.
  • The location information is processed using a neural network to obtain channel information.
  • The channel information represents the characteristics of the radio channel between two communication apparatuses.
  • Communication is then performed based on the estimated channel information.

Benefits of this invention include:

  • Avoiding the need for pilot signals for channel estimation.
  • Reducing overheads associated with pilot signals.
  • Improving the efficiency and accuracy of channel estimation.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application discloses a neural network-based channel estimation method and a communication apparatus. The method may be implemented in the following steps: obtaining first location information of a first communication apparatus; processing the first location information by using a neural network, to obtain first channel information, where the first channel information is information about a radio channel between the first communication apparatus and a second communication apparatus; and performing communication based on the first channel information. The neural network is used to estimate channel information based on location information. This can avoid channel estimation based on a pilot signal, reduce overheads of the pilot signal, and improve efficiency and accuracy of estimating the channel information.
