Receiver Design for Faster-than-Nyquist Signaling: Deep-learning-based Architectures

Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) is a promising paradigm to improve bandwidth utilization at the expense of additional intersymbol interference (ISI). In this paper, we apply state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) technology into receiver design for FTN signaling and propose two DL-based new architectures. Firstly, we propose an FTN signal detection based on DL and connect it with the successive interference cancellation (SIC) to replace traditional detection algorithms. Simulation results show that this architecture can achieve near-optimal performance in both uncoded and coded scenarios. Additionally, we propose a DL-based joint signal detection and decoding for FTN signaling to replace the complete baseband part in traditional FTN receivers. The performance of this new architecture has also been illustrated by simulation results. Finally, both the proposed DL-based receiver architecture has the robustness to signal to noise ratio (SNR). In a nutshell, DL has been proved to be a powerful tool for the FTN receiver design.
