A MIMO Detector With Deep-Neural-Network for Faster-Than-Nyquist Optical Wireless Communications

Abstract

Conventional multiple input multiple output (MIMO) detection algorithms face challenges related to computational complexity and limited performance when handling high-dimensional inputs and complex channel conditions. In order to enhance signal recovery accuracy in atmospheric turbulence channels for faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) optical wireless communication (OWC) systems, a deep learning (DL) based MIMO detector is proposed. By leveraging a deep neural network (DNN), it becomes possible to learn nonlinear mappings within MIMO systems, resulting in improved detection performance while reducing computational overheads. Simulation results validate that our proposed DNN detector achieves comparable performance to the maximum likelihood (ML) method, while reducing complexity by 40%.
