OFDM Autoencoder for Wireless Communications

This example shows how to model an end-to-end orthogonal frequency division modulation (OFDM) communications system with an autoencoder to reliably transmit information bits over a wireless channel.

Introduction

This example uses an autoencoder together with OFDM modulator, demodulator, channel estimator and equalizer layers to design and implement a multi-carrier communications system.

In this example, you will learn how to:

  • Create OFDM modulation and demodulation layers using the ofdmmod (Communications Toolbox) and ofdmdemod (Communications Toolbox) functions.

  • Create an OFDM equalization layer using the ofdmChannelResponse (Communications Toolbox) function.

  • Train a convolutional neural network with embedded OFDM modulation, demodulation and equalization over a Rayleigh fading channel.

  • Extract the learned encoder and decoder from the trained neural network.

  • Run BLER simulations to compare error rate performance of a conventional OFDM link to an AI-based OFDM link.

For an equivalent single-carrier communications system, see the Autoencoders for Wireless Communications (Communications Toolbox) example.

OFDM-based Autoencoder System

This block diagram shows a wireless autoencoder communications system. The encoder (transmitter) first maps each k set of information bits in a sequence into a message s such that s{0,,M-1}, where M=2k, to form T messages. Each of the T messages, s, is mapped to n real-valued channel uses, x=f(s)Rn, which results in an effective coding rate of R=k/n data bits per real channel use. Then, every two real channel uses are mapped into a complex symbol to create xc=g(s)Cn/2. The normalization layer of the encoder imposes constraints on x to further restrict the encoded symbols. The layer can be used to enforce one of the following constraints:

  • Energy constraint: xi22=1,i

  • Average power constraint: E[|xi|2]=1,i

Normalized symbols are mapped onto the OFDM subcarriers and passed through a multipath fading channel with additive white Gaussian noise.

The transmitter encodes s and outputs encoded symbols, x. The channel impairs the encoded symbols to generate yRn . The receiver decodes y and outputs estimate, sˆ, of the transmitted message s.

The input message is a one-hot vector 1sRM, whose elements are all zeros except the sth one. x is filtered through a MISO multipath fading channel with AWGN with a given signal to noise power ratio, SNR.

Generate and Preprocess Data

The input to the transmitter is a random sequence of k bits. k bits can create M=2k distinct messages or input symbols. The input symbol is a categorical feature from the set of {0,1,...,M-1}. As the number of possible input symbols increases, the number of training sequences must increase to give the network a chance to experience many input combinations. The same is true for the number of validation sequences. Set number of input bits per symbol to 4.

k = 4;  % Information bits per symbol
M = 2^k;                   % Size of information symbols set
numTrainSeq = 1e3 * M;
numValidationSeq = 1e2 * M;

The autoencoder neural network best works with one-hot inputs and classifies each input symbol as one of the categorical values, {0,1,...,M-1}. Convert random input symbols into a one-hot array using the onehotencode function. Place the one-hot value to the first dimension (rows) and input symbols to the second dimension (columns).

dTrain = randi([0 M-1],1,5)
dTrain = 1×5

trainSymbolsTemp = onehotencode(dTrain,1,"ClassNames",0:M-1)

trainLabelsTemp = categorical(dTrain)
trainLabelsTemp = 1x5 categorical

The autoencoder uses a sequenceInputLayer. Each sequence represents one or more OFDM symbols. Set the number of subcarriers, NfftN sub fft, to 128 and the number of OFDM symbols per training sequence to 1.

Nfft            = 128; % Number of OFDM data subcarriers
Nsym            = Nfft;   % Number of modulated symbols per training sequence

Generate the training data set as a cell array of numTrainSeq sequences. Each sequence has the one hot encoding on the first dimension (rows) and the symbols on the second dimension (columns).

dTrain = randi([0 M-1],numTrainSeq,1,Nsym);

trainSeq = onehotencode(dTrain,2,"ClassNames",0:M-1);
trainSeq = mat2cell(trainSeq,ones(1,numTrainSeq));
trainSeq = cellfun(@squeeze,trainSeq,"UniformOutput",false);

Similarly, generate the validation data.

dValid = randi([0 M-1],numValidationSeq,1,Nsym);

validationSeq = onehotencode(dValid,2,"ClassNames",0:M-1);
validationSeq = mat2cell(validationSeq,ones(1,numValidationSeq));
validationSeq = cellfun(@squeeze,validationSeq,'UniformOutput',false);

The size of training symbols is M×NSym. The size of training labels is 1×NSym.

numTrainSeq = length(trainSeq)
numTrainSeq = 
16000
sizeTrainSymbols = size(trainSeq{1})
sizeTrainSymbols = 1×2

Define and Train Neural Network Model

The second step of designing an AI-based system is to define and train the neural network model.

Define Neural Network

This example uses a modified version of the autoencoder neural network proposed in [2]. Three 1D convolutional layers map k bits (in the form of length M one-hot arrays) into n real numbers, resulting in a rate R=k/n communications system. After normalization, the OFDM modulator layer maps these n real numbers into n/2 complex valued symbols and assigns each symbol to a subcarrier. To ensure that the OFDM modulator layer receives at least a full OFDM symbol at a time, set minimum input length, MinLength, of the sequence input layer to Nfft. Therefore, the input to the neural network is a sequence of one-hot values with size M×NSym. This network uses the sequenceInputLayer function with M number of features and sequence length of at least Nfft.

The reliability of the communication link can be increased through multiple uses of the channel for the same information symbol, which is also known as coding gain. An autoencoder can learn to leverage this increased number of channel uses, n>k. The following trains an OFDM-based (8,4) autoencoder, which is equivalent to having a coding rate, R, of 1/2. Set n to 8.

The fading channel layer transmits the modulated symbols over a fading channel using ntx transmit antennas and adds AWGN. The impaired symbols are received by an OFDM demodulation layer using one receive antenna.

Train the neural network at several SNR levels to ensure that the autoencoder can handle a range of SNR values without retraining. Set the minimum and maximum training SNR values to 0 dB and 12 dB, respectively.

minTrainSNR     = 0; % Min training SNR (dB)
maxTrainSNR     = 12; % Max training SNR (dB)
n               = 8; % (n/2) is the number of complex channel uses
CPLength        = 12; % Samples
normalization   = "Average power"; % Normalization "Energy" | "Average power"
ntx             = 2; % Number of transmit antennas
SCS             = 240*1e3;              % Subcarrier spacing in Hz
Fs              = SCS*Nfft/0.85;        % Sampling frequency 
nSamples        = (Nfft+CPLength)*n/2;  

inputLayer = sequenceInputLayer(M,Name="One-hot input",MinLength=Nfft);

Create an encoder using four 1D convolutional layers followed by layer normalization layers and elu activations.

encoderLayers = [convolution1dLayer(1,4,"Name","conv_1")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_1")

    convolution1dLayer(2,4,"Name","conv_2","Padding","causal")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_2")

    convolution1dLayer(2,4,"Name","conv_3","Padding","causal")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_3")

    convolution1dLayer(1,n,"Name","conv_4")

    helperAEWOFDMNormalizationLayer(Method=normalization)];

Similarly, create a decoder using five 1D convolutional layers followed by layer normalization layers and elu activations.

decoderLayers =  [convolution1dLayer(1,128,"Name","conv_5")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_4")

    convolution1dLayer(3,128,"Name","conv_6","Padding","causal")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_5")

    convolution1dLayer(3,128,"Name","conv_7","Padding","causal")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_6")

    convolution1dLayer(3,128,"Name","conv_8","Padding","causal")
    layerNormalizationLayer
    eluLayer("Name","elu_7")

    convolution1dLayer(1,M,"Name","conv_9")
    softmaxLayer(Name="softmax")];

Add the input layer, an OFDM modulation layer, fading channel layer, OFDM demodulation and channel equalization custom layers to the encoder and decoder to create the OFDM Autoencoder. The helperAEWOFDMChannelLayer filters its input signal using multiple delay profiles and doppler frequency shifts. The layer then adds AWGN to the received signal.

ofdmAENet = dlnetwork([inputLayer

  encoderLayers

  helperAEWOFDMModLayer(Nfft,CPLength,Name="ofdmMod")
  
  helperAEWOFDMChannelLayer(ntx,Fs,minTrainSNR,maxTrainSNR,Name="fadingChannel")
  
  helperAEWOFDMDemodLayer(Nfft,CPLength,Name="ofdmDemod")]);

ofdmEqualizeLayer = helperAEWOFDMEqualizeLayer(Nfft,ntx,Name="ofdmEqualize");

ofdmAENet = addLayers(ofdmAENet,ofdmEqualizeLayer);
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"ofdmDemod/out","ofdmEqualize/in1");
ofdmAENet = addLayers(ofdmAENet,decoderLayers);
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"ofdmEqualize/out","conv_5/in");

Use helperAEWOFDMChanResponseLayer to create an OFDM channel response layer that receives the time domain fading path gains, channel filter taps and channel filter delays and returns the equivalent channel response in the frequency domain to the equalization layer.

chanResponse = helperAEWOFDMChanResponseLayer(Nfft,CPLength,ntx,Name="channelResponse");
ofdmAENet = addLayers(ofdmAENet,chanResponse);
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"fadingChannel/out2","channelResponse/in1");
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"fadingChannel/out3","channelResponse/in2");
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"fadingChannel/out4","channelResponse/in3");
ofdmAENet = connectLayers(ofdmAENet,"channelResponse","ofdmEqualize/in2");

Separate the network into encoder and decoder parts. The encoder starts with the input layer and ends after the wireless normalization layer.

for idxNormLayer = 1:length(trainedNet.Layers)
    if isa(trainedNet.Layers(idxNormLayer), "helperAEWOFDMNormalizationLayer")
        break
    end
end
lgraph = layerGraph(trainedNet.Layers(1:idxNormLayer));
txNet = dlnetwork(lgraph);

The decoder starts after the OFDM equalization layer and ends with the classification layer. Add a sequence input layer at the beginning.

for idxOFDMDemod = idxNormLayer+1:length(trainedNet.Layers)
    if isa(trainedNet.Layers(idxOFDMDemod),"nnet.cnn.layer.Convolution1DLayer")
        break

Compare BLER of Autoencoder-based Link to a Conventional OFDM Link

Set up simulation parameters. The following parameters ensure the simulation runs in about one minute while providing acceptable BLER results. Increase the SNR range and maximum number of frames to get more reliable results for a wider range.

Generate random integers in the [0 M-1] range that represents k random information bits. Encode these information bits into complex symbols with helperAEWOFDMEncode function. The helperAEWOFDMEncode function runs the encoder part of the autoencoder then maps the real valued x vector into a complex valued xc vector such that the odd and even elements are mapped into the in-phase and the quadrature component of a complex symbol, respectively, where xc=x(1:2:end)+jx(2:2:end). In other words, treat the x array as an interleaved complex array.

Pass the complex symbols through an AWGN channel. Decode the channel impaired complex symbols with the helperAEWOFDMDecode function.

Conclusions and Further Exploration

The BLER results show that by inserting the expert knowledge in the form of OFDM modulation and demodulation to the neural network, an OFDM-based autoencoder can be trained. By allowing for multiple channel uses per input symbol ( n>k ), the autoencoder can learn to obtain coding gain better than the conventional convolutional code with Viterbi decoder.

Change n, k, Nfft, CPLength, and normalization to train different autoencoders. Try different training SNR values to optimize the training performance. See the help for the helperAEWTrainOFDMAutoencoder function and the helperAEWOFDMAutoencoderBLER function.
