Distributed and Scalable Uplink Processing for LIS: Algorithm, Architecture, and Design Trade-offs

The Large Intelligent Surface (LIS) is a promising technology in the areas of wireless communication, remote sensing and positioning. It consists of a continuous radiating surface located in the proximity of the users, with the capability to communicate by transmission and reception (replacing base stations). Despite of its potential, there are numerous challenges from implementation point of view, being the interconnection data-rate, computational complexity, and storage the most relevant ones. In order to address those challenges, hierarchical architectures with distributed processing techniques are envisioned to to be relevant for this task, while ensuring scalability. In this work we perform algorithm-architecture codesign to propose two distributed interference cancellation algorithms, and a tree-based interconnection topology for uplink processing. We also analyze the performance, hardware requirements, and architecture tradeoffs for a discrete LIS, in order to provide concrete case studies and guidelines for efficient implementation of LIS systems.

Processing Distribution and Architecture Tradeoff for Large Intelligent Surface Implementation

The Large Intelligent Surface (LIS) concept has emerged recently as a new paradigm for wireless communication, remote sensing and positioning. It consists of a continuous radiating surface placed relatively close to the users, which is able to communicate with users by independent transmission and reception (replacing base stations). Despite of its potential, there are a lot of challenges from an implementation point of view, with the interconnection data-rate and computational complexity being the most relevant. Distributed processing techniques and hierarchical architectures are expected to play a vital role addressing this while ensuring scalability. In this paper we perform algorithm-architecture codesign and analyze the hardware requirements and architecture trade-offs for a discrete LIS to perform uplink detection. By doing this, we expect to give concrete case studies and guidelines for efficient implementation of LIS systems.

Decentralized Massive MIMO Processing Exploring Daisy-chain Architecture and Recursive Algorithms

Algorithms for Massive MIMO uplink detection and downlink precoding typically rely on a centralized approach, by which baseband data from all antenna modules are routed to a central node in order to be processed. In the case of Massive MIMO, where hundreds or thousands of antennas are expected in the base-station, said routing becomes a bottleneck since interconnection throughput is limited. This paper presents a fully decentralized architecture and an algorithm for Massive MIMO uplink detection and downlink precoding based on the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) method, which does not require a central node for these tasks. Through a recursive approach and very low complexity operations, the proposed algorithm provides a good trade-off between performance, interconnection throughput and latency. Further, our proposed solution achieves significantly lower interconnection data-rate than other architectures, enabling future scalability.

An Iterative Interference Cancellation Algorithm for Large Intelligent Surfaces

The Large Intelligent Surface (LIS) concept is a promising technology aiming to revolutionize wireless communication by exploiting spatial multiplexing at its fullest. Despite of its potential, due to the size of the LIS and the large number of antenna elements involved there is a need of decentralized architectures together with distributed algorithms which can reduce the inter-connection data-rate and computational requirement in the Central Processing Unit (CPU). In this article we address the uplink detection problem in the LIS system and propose a decentralize architecture based on panels, which perform local linear processing. We also provide the sum-rate capacity for such architecture and derive an algorithm to obtain the equalizer, which aims to maximize the sum-rate capacity. A performance analysis is also presented, including a comparison to a naive approach based on a reduced form of the matched filter (MF) method. The results shows the superiority of the proposed algorithm.

Fully Decentralized Massive MIMO Detection Based on Recursive Methods

Algorithms for Massive MIMO uplink detection typically rely on a centralized approach, by which baseband data from all antennas modules are routed to a central node in order to be processed. In case of Massive MIMO, where hundreds or thousands of antennas are expected in the base-station, this architecture leads to a bottleneck, with critical limitations in terms of interconnection bandwidth requirements. This paper presents a fully decentralized architecture and algorithms for Massive MIMO uplink based on recursive methods, which do not require a central node for the detection process. Through a recursive approach and very low complexity operations, the proposed algorithms provide a sequence of estimates that converge asymptotically to the zero-forcing solution, without the need of specific hardware for matrix inversion. The proposed solution achieves significantly lower interconnection data-rate than other architectures, enabling future scalability.
