Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel framework of low-cost link adaptation for spatial modulation multiple-input multiple-output (SM-MIMO) systems-based upon the machine learning paradigm. Specifically, we first convert the problems of transmit antenna selection (TAS) and power allocation (PA) in SM-MIMO to ones-based upon data-driven prediction rather than conventional optimization-driven decisions. Then, supervised-learning classifiers (SLC), such as the K -nearest neighbors (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms, are developed to obtain their statistically-consistent solutions. Moreover, for further comparison we integrate deep neural networks (DNN) with these adaptive SM-MIMO schemes, and propose a novel DNN-based multi-label classifier for TAS and PA parameter evaluation. Furthermore, we investigate the design of feature vectors for the SLC and DNN approaches and propose a novel feature vector generator to match the specific transmission mode of SM. As a further advance, our proposed approaches are extended to other adaptive index modulation (IM) schemes, e.g., adaptive modulation (AM) aided orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with IM (OFDM-IM). Our simulation results show that the SLC and DNN-based adaptive SM-MIMO systems outperform many conventional optimization-driven designs and are capable of achieving a near-optimal performance with a significantly lower complexity.
