About the Lab
Professor Yoseb Jeon's research lab specializes in advanced signal processing and machine learning techniques for next-generation wireless communication systems, particularly focusing on massive MIMO and mmWave systems with low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The lab explores low-complexity detection and channel estimation methods, leveraging supervised learning, reinforcement learning, and compressive sensing to address the challenges of quantization distortion and hardware constraints. Key research directions include near-optimal detection with one-bit ADCs, blind data detection without explicit channel state information, and efficient federated learning over massive MIMO networks.

15This paper presents a low-complexity near-maximum-likelihood-detection (near-MLD) algorithm called one-bit sphere decoding for an uplink massive multiple-input multiple-output system with one-bit analog-to-digital converters. The idea of the proposed algorithm is to estimate the transmitted symbol vector sent by uplink users (a codeword vector) by searching over a sphere, which contains a collection of codeword vectors close to the received signal vector at the base station in terms of a weighte
This paper considers a multiple-input multiple-output system with low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this system, we propose a novel communication framework that is inspired by supervised learning. The key idea of the proposed framework is to learn the nonlinear input-output system, formed by the concatenation of a wireless channel and a quantization function used at the ADCs for data detection. In this framework, a conventional channel estimation process is replaced by a sys
Federated learning is a privacy-preserving approach to train a global model at a central server by collaborating with wireless devices, each with its own local training data set. In this paper, we present a compressive sensing approach for federated learning over massive multiple-input multiple-output communication systems in which the central server equipped with a massive antenna array communicates with the wireless devices. One major challenge in system design is to reconstruct local gradient
The use of one-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) at a receiver is a power-efficient solution for future wireless systems operating with a large signal bandwidth and/or a massive number of receive radio frequency chains. This solution, however, induces high channel estimation error and therefore makes it difficult to perform the optimal data detection that requires perfect knowledge of likelihood functions at the receiver. In this paper, we propose a likelihood function learning method for
This paper considers a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system with low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this system, we propose a novel detection framework that performs data symbol detection without explicitly knowing channel state information at a receiver. The underlying idea of the proposed framework is to exploit supervised learning. Specifically, during channel training, the proposed approach sends a sequence of data symbols as pilots so that the receiver learns a n
In this paper, we propose computationally efficient yet near-optimal soft-output detection methods for coded millimeter-wave (mmWave) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems with low-precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The underlying idea of the proposed methods is to construct an extremely sparse inter-symbol-interference channel model by jointly exploiting the delay-domain sparsity in mmWave channels and a high quantization noise caused by low-precision ADCs. Then, we harness
This paper considers an uplink massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with low-precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this system, a robust maximum-likelihood detection (MLD) method is proposed under imperfect channel state information at a receiver (CSIR). Inspired by reinforcement learning theory, the idea of the proposed method is to enhance the accuracy of a likelihood function estimated at the receiver, by exploiting associations between correctly detected data symb
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising technology for next-generation wireless communications. However, when channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter is obtained using channel feedback, the benefits of this system are severely limited by the tradeoff between downlink capacity and feedback overhead. To solve this problem, we propose a time-domain differential feedback scheme for massive multiple-input single-output
Communication efficiency is of importance for wireless federated learning systems. In this paper, we propose a communication-efficient strategy for federated learning over multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channels (MACs). The proposed strategy comprises two components. When sending a locally computed gradient, each device compresses a high dimensional local gradient to multiple lower-dimensional gradient vectors using block sparsification. When receiving a superposition of t
This paper presents a data-aided channel estimator that reduces the channel estimation error of the conventional linear minimum-mean-squared-error (LMMSE) method for multiple-input multiple-output communication systems. The basic idea is to selectively exploit detected symbol vectors obtained from data detection as additional pilot signals. To optimize the selection of the detected symbol vectors, a Markov decision process (MDP) is defined which finds the best selection to minimize the mean-squa
Wireless systems continue to go toward higher carrier frequencies, including terahertz bands, to take advantage of higher bandwidth channels. At the same time, antenna arrays remain important with continued increases in array elements. However, the power consumption of RF and digital circuits can increase proportionally to both the amount of signal bandwidth and the number of antennas. The use of one-bit analog-to-digital converters at the receiver is a cost- and power-efficient solution for wid
Two-stage beamforming is a transmit strategy that uses two types of beamformers to reduce the feedback overhead of frequency-division-duplexing massive multiple-input multiple-output systems that are spatially correlated. In this paper, we present large system analysis of two-stage beamforming when a transmitter has limited channel information from feedback and when regularized-zero-forcing (RZF) is used as a second-stage beamformer. We consider two random-vector-quantization-based feedback sche
This letter proposes a distributed beamforming scheme based on block diagonalization (BD) for multicell multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) downlink systems. Although conventional BD can be directly extended to these systems in a distributed manner, it suffers from sum-rate degradation due to strict zero-forcing (ZF) constraints. To overcome this problem, we introduce a sum-rate maximization problem for BD, to find the optimal selection of ZF constraints. Then we propose a search
Federated learning is a communication-efficient and privacy-preserving solution to train a global model through the collaboration of multiple devices each with its own local training data set. In this paper, we consider federated learning over massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems in which wireless devices train a global model with the aid of a central server equipped with a massive antenna array. One major challenge is to design a reception technique at the central
This paper considers a K-cell multiple access channel with inter-symbol interference. The primary finding of this paper is that, without instantaneous channel state information at the transmitters, interference-free degrees-of-freedom (DoF) per cell is achievable, provided that the delay spread of the desired links is significantly longer than that of the interfering links when the number of user per cell is sufficiently large. This achievability is shown by a blind interference management metho
