A New Approach for Modeling the Dynamics of Output Variables of a Spatially Distributed System
Abstract: This paper addresses the development of an average-value based model for the processing system having some peculiar physical constraints which prevent their process variables to have a steady and stable value. As a result, the maintenance of steady balance of the system will become tedious. The continuous observation of that process variable, fixation of its average value on real-time basis, and mathematical model development of above-average value as base factor …

Channel Prediction and Estimation Based on Machine and Deep Learning Techniques: A Review
Abstract: Channel prediction estimation in the high- speed mobile environment is a hot issue for 3D massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) millimeter-wave (mmWave) system. In this environment, the channel has fast time-varying and non-stationary characteristics. And its time-domain correlation coefficient is a time- varying parameter, which makes it difficult for traditional channel estimation methods to capture the channel variations over time and achieve ideal channel estimation performance. A known signal, …
