contents The use of ultra-massive multiple-input multiple-output and high-frequency large bandwidth systems is likely in the next-generation wireless communication systems. In such systems, the user moves between near- and far-field regions, and consequently, the channel estimation will need to be carried out in the cross-field scenario. Channel estimation strategies have been proposed for both near- and far-fields, but in the cross-field problem, the first step is to determine whether the near- or far-field is applicable so that an appropriate channel estimation strategy can be employed. In this work, we propose using a hidden Markov model over an ensemble of region estimates to enhance the accuracy of selecting the actual region. The region indicators are calculated using the pair-wise power differences between received signals across the subarrays within an array-of-subarrays architecture. Numerical results show that the proposed method achieves a high success rate in determining the appropriate channel estimation strategy.
