Machine Learning-driven Antenna Selection Strategies for Fading MIMO Systems

In this study, we investigate better performing antenna selection strategies in wireless communication systems based on machine learning algorithms. Reinforcement learning as well as neural networks among others are analysed for different metrics such a bit error rate (BER), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and data throughput. These results show that these methods are working well against the dynamic changing of channel conditions to provide reliable and efficient. The computational complexity analysis suggests affordable overhead, allowing the feasibility of real-time implementation. Although this method can simulate the scenario in a real environment, it is not scalable due to simulation fidelity and antenna array. On the one hand, future research will refine and expand upon these ML models with real-time adaptation capabilities - On the other hand significant field trials are needed to put this work into practice for specific applications making sure that we develop robust adaptive wireless communication systems in practice.
