Binarized Aggregated Network with Quantization: Flexible Deep Learning Deployment for CSI Feedback in Massive MIMO System
Zhilin Lu, Xudong Zhang, Hongyi He, Jintao Wang, Jian Song
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is one of the key techniques to achieve better spectrum and energy efficiency in 5G system. The channel state information (CSI) needs to be fed back from the user equipment to the base station in frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode. However, the overhead of the direct feedback is unacceptable due to the large antenna array in massive MIMO system. Recently, deep learning is widely adopted to the compressed CSI feedback task and proved to be effective. In this paper, a novel network named aggregated channel reconstruction network (ACRNet) is designed to boost the feedback performance with network aggregation and parametric rectified linear unit (PReLU) activation. The practical deployment of the feedback network in the communication system is also considered. Specifically, the elastic feedback scheme is proposed to flexibly adapt the network to meet different resource limitations. Besides, the network binarization technique is combined with the feature quantization for lightweight and practical deployment. Experiments show that the proposed ACRNet outperforms loads of previous state-of-the-art networks, providing a neat feedback solution with high performance, low cost and impressive flexibility.
