摘要

En 中文
Accurate and fast channel estimation is one of the challenging problems in achieving practical reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided wireless communication. However, a RIS-assisted communication system typically involves cascaded channels with intricate large-scale data distribution. Hence, practical implementation of the optimal minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimator may be infeasible due to its excessive complexity. In addition, most of the existing artificial intelligence (AI)-based channel estimation methods generally rely on convolutional neural networks, which only guarantee the estimation accuracy without considering the estimation time. To address these problems, an efficient parallel Transformer (EPformer) is proposed to achieve efficient channel estimation by jointly considering both estimation accuracy and estimation time. Firstly, the channel estimation problem is formulated as a parallel super-resolution (PSR) problem, given that the elements on the RIS are typically distributed in a two-dimensional manner. Then, the multi-head attention mechanism is employed to extract the deep channel features from the input data in parallel. To further enhance the estimation accuracy, the super-resolution block (SRB) is designed to denoise the noisy channel matrices. Finally, the encoder-to-decoder paradigm is developed to enhance the estimation performance. Extensive simulation results are provided to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed channel estimation scheme.
