Bayesian Neural Network Detector for an Orthogonal Time Frequency Space Modulation

Abstract

The orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) modulation is proposed for beyond 5G wireless systems to deal with high mobility communications. The existing low complexity OTFS detectors exhibit poor performance in rich scattering environments where there are a large number of moving reflectors that reflect the transmitted signal towards the receiver. In this paper, we propose an OTFS detector, referred to as the BPICNet OTFS detector that integrates NN, Bayesian inference, and parallel interference cancellation concepts. Simulation results show that the proposed OTFS detector significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art.
