Federated Deep Learning Framework For Hybrid Beamforming in mm-Wave Massive MIMO
share
Machine learning (ML) for wireless communications requires the training of a global model with a large dataset collected from the users. However, the transmission of a whole dataset between the users and the base station (BS) is computationally prohibitive. In this work, we introduce a federated learning (FL) based framework where the model training is performed at the BS by collecting only the gradients from the users. In particular, we design a convolutional neural network (CNN), whose input is the channel data and it yields the analog beamformers at the output. We have evaluated the performance of the proposed framework via numerical simulations and shown that FL is more tolerant than ML to the imperfections and corruptions in the channel data as well as having less complexity.
