• Abstract: We propose a neural network (NN)-based algorithm for device detection and time of arrival (ToA) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation for the narrowband physical random-access channel (NPRACH) of narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT). The introduced NN architecture leverages residual convolutional networks as well as knowledge of the preamble structure of the 5G New Radio (5G NR) specifications. Benchmarking on a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) urban microcell (UMi) channel model with random drops of users against a state-of-the-art baseline shows that the proposed method enables up to 8 dB gains in false negative rate (FNR) as well as significant gains in false positive rate (FPR) and ToA and CFO estimation accuracy. Moreover, our simulations indicate that the proposed algorithm enables gains over a wide range of channel conditions, CFOs, and transmission probabilities. The introduced synchronization method operates at the base station (BS) and, therefore, introduces no additional complexity on the user devices. It could lead to an extension of battery lifetime by reducing the preamble length or the transmit power.

  In IEEE 802.11 WiFi-based waveforms, the receiver performs coarse time and frequency synchronization using the first field of the preamble known as the legacy short training field (L-STF) With the goal of reducing communication overhead, we propose a modified waveform, where the preamble length is reduced by eliminating the L-STF. To decode this modified waveform, we propose a machine learning (ML)-based scheme called PRONTO that performs coarse time and frequency estimations.

  We focus on uplink cascaded channel estimation, where known and fixed base station combining and RIS phase control matrices are considered for collecting observations. To boost the estimation performance and reduce the training overhead, the inherent channel sparsity of mmWave channels is leveraged in the deep unfolding method. It is verified that the proposed deep unfolding network architecture can outperform the least squares (LS) method with a relatively smaller training overhead and online computational complexity.
