Adaptive Prediction Approach for 3D Geometry-based communication

Mervat Zarour, Qiuheng Zhou, Sergiy Melnyk, Hans D. Schotten

TL;DR

The paper tackles reliable DL link selection in dynamic 3D urban environments by predicting the DL channel from UL estimates using an adaptive LSTM-based predictor within a 3GPP 3D channel framework. It analyzes LS and MMSE uplink estimators and compares open-loop and closed-loop DL prediction modes, highlighting trade-offs between estimation accuracy, prediction complexity, and robustness. Key findings show MMSE excels at low SNR, while closed-loop DL prediction offers robustness and reduced complexity, enabling adaptive RoR management for energy-constrained UAVs. The work advances 3D radio resource management by providing a practical, adaptive prediction mechanism for air-to-ground links in urban settings.

Abstract

This paper addresses the challenges of mobile user requirements in shadowing and multi-fading environments, focusing on the Downlink (DL) radio node selection based on Uplink (UL) channel estimation. One of the key issues tackled in this research is the prediction performance in scenarios where estimated channels are integrated. An adaptive deep learning approach is proposed to improve performance, offering a compelling alternative to traditional interpolation techniques for air-to-ground link selection on demand. Moreover, our study considers a 3D channel model, which provides a more realistic and accurate representation than 2D models, particularly in the context of 3D network node distributions. This consideration becomes crucial in addressing the complex multipath fading effects within geometric stochastic 3D 3GPP channel models in urban environments. Furthermore, our research emphasises the need for adaptive prediction mechanisms that carefully balance the trade-off between DL link forecasted frequency response accuracy and the complexity requirements associated with estimation and prediction. This paper contributes to advancing 3D radio resource management by addressing these challenges, enabling more efficient and reliable communication for energy-constrained flying network nodes in dynamic environments.
