Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless mobile communications, and to multi-user multiple-input multiple-output transmission in deep learning and high-speed railway scenarios, particularly to a geographically-based high-speed railway mobile communication 6G fully separated network uplink transmission method and system. [Background technology]
[0002] With the rapid development of railway systems, high-speed train communications has attracted widespread attention. Fifth-generation mobile networks (5G) achieve significant performance improvements through massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) with joint precoding design, maximizing diversity and multipath gain. However, high mobility causes channel degradation in various aspects, such as Doppler frequency offset (DFO), reduced coherence time, and phase noise, significantly reducing the performance of high-speed train communications systems. Furthermore, because 5G uses spectrum in higher frequency bands, handovers between base stations become more frequent in high-speed mobile scenarios.
[0003] Conventional solutions for Long Term Evolution Technology for Railways (LTE-R) are planned to use more frequent pilot transmission and channel state information (CSI) feedback, which leads to the consumption of large amounts of time-frequency resources. Furthermore, feedback delay becomes more severe in high-speed mobile scenarios, making it difficult to obtain accurate CSI even when more frequent pilots are used for channel estimation.
[0004] Sixth-generation (6G) mobile communication networks are expected to provide more flexible resource allocation and improve user experience. In their paper, "A Fully-Decoupled RAN Architecture for 6G Inspired by Neurotransmission," Academician Yu Quan and his colleagues proposed a 6G fully decoupled radio access network (FD-RAN) architecture that separates traditional base stations into uplink base stations (UBS), downlink base stations, and control base stations. FD-RAN offers significant advantages in high-speed rail communication systems. On the one hand, because all control plane signals are transmitted by the control base station, the amount of control information data is small. This allows the control base station to cover a wider area using lower frequency bands, significantly reducing handover overhead. On the other hand, FD-RAN employs a feedback-free transmission solution based on geographic location. This solution not only mitigates the negative effects of channel changes and resource overhead, but also avoids feedback delays through location prediction. Since the train track is fixed, the train's location can be easily predicted in advance. However, determining the appropriate precoding from location information alone remains challenging. Furthermore, considering multiple mobile relays (MRs) installed on trains, a joint precoding design is required because a multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) scenario must be utilized. Furthermore, it is difficult to use the real-time channel estimated by the pilots for signal reception at the base station side to save more pilot resources.
[0005] As described above, the problems with the existing technology are as follows: (1) Traditional pilot-based channel estimation incurs large resource overhead in high-speed railway scenarios, and feedback delays make it difficult for the transmitter to obtain real-time channel information. (2) In 6G fully isolated networks, the large feedback delays caused by the hardware isolation and isolation architecture significantly degrade the performance of transmission methods that rely on existing feedback mechanisms. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

This embodiment is implemented on the premise of the technical solutions of the present invention, and detailed embodiments and specific operation procedures are provided. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[0025] The geographical location-based high-speed rail mobile communication 6G fully separated network uplink transmission method disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:
[0026] Step 1: Perform pure line-of-sight channel mapping based on the geographical locations of the train and each uplink base station, and use this as channel estimation to perform joint receiving processing for secondary merging of uplink signals.
[0027] Step 2: Design a deep neural network that takes the pure line-of-sight channel information mapped between the train and the uplink base station as input and outputs multi-user joint precoding information that satisfies a certain modulus constraint. Design the loss function of the deep neural network according to the system optimization objective. Then, perform data transmission using the precoding output by the deep neural network.
[0028] Step 3: Using the historical channel data of samples at each location, train the deep neural network offline and update the parameters until convergence.
[0029] Step 4: In the actual deployment stage, the pure line-of-sight channel corresponding to the train position is input, and the deep neural network outputs the joint precoding at the corresponding position, thereby realizing feedback-free transmission.
[0030] The specific steps of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the high-speed railway communication scenario shown in Figure 1. Assuming that the uplink base station and the mobile relay are located on the same plane and there are L base stations serving K train mobile relays, the actual channel between the mobile relay on top of the kth train and the lth uplink base station is denoted by H kl Then the pure line-of-sight channel mapping relationship is:

[0040] The deep learning neural network configuration employed will be described below. In an embodiment of the present invention, the deep neural network may use a fully connected deep learning neural network to avoid the labeling overhead of supervised learning, or may use a residual network (ResNet) to improve the convergence speed of training the deep neural network. The channels between all relays and the base station are taken as inputs. After being converted into vectors by a flattening layer, for example, the number of neurons passed through in sequence is set to 1024, 512, 256, and K*N. V Then, batch normalization is performed for each layer to prevent overfitting. A Lambda processing layer is designed before output, and the output of the neural network is

[0041] The network training process is shown in Figure 2. The process of minimizing the loss function finds the precoding that maximizes the total spectral efficiency of the system, i.e., the optimal solution to the optimization problem, thereby achieving the design of geographical location-based precoding without channel information feedback. The convergence curve during network training is shown in Figure 3, which indicates that the network can complete convergence within 20 iterations and requires few computing resources during the training process.
[0042] To make this example more intuitive and compare the advantages and disadvantages of the FD-RAN architecture with other architectures, Figure 4 shows a comparative schematic diagram of the simulation results for the spectral efficiency of high-speed train relays under different architectures. The results show that small cell performance is inferior to that of the FD-RAN architecture because individual signal reception cannot eliminate large inter-relay interference. Compared to cellular networks, higher spectral efficiency can be achieved when the train is close to the cellular base station. However, spectral efficiency is lower at the cellular edge. This demonstrates that the FD-RAN architecture in this example can provide stable and high spectral efficiency for high-speed train communications. In one embodiment of the present invention, a computer system is disclosed, which includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and operable on the processor, the computer program being loaded into the processor to implement the steps of the 6G fully isolated network uplink transmission method for high-speed rail mobile communications based on geographical location information according to the aforementioned steps.
