| contents | This paper introduces a novel neural network (NN) structure referred to as an ``Auto-hybrid precoder'' (Auto-HP) and an unsupervised deep learning (DL) approach that jointly designs \ac{mmWave} probing beams and hybrid precoding matrix design for mmWave multi-user communication system with minimal training pilots. Our learning-based model capitalizes on prior channel observations to achieve two primary goals: designing a limited set of probing beams and predicting off-grid \ac{RF} beamforming vectors. The Auto-HP framework optimizes the probing beams in an unsupervised manner, concentrating the sensing power on the most promising spatial directions based on the surrounding environment. This is achieved through an innovative neural network architecture that respects \ac{RF} chain constraints and models received signal strength power measurements using complex-valued convolutional layers. Then, the autoencoder is trained to directly produce RF beamforming vectors for hybrid architectures, unconstrained by a predefined codebook, based on few projected received signal strength indicators (RSSIs). Finally, once the RF beamforming vectors for the multi-users are predicted, the baseband (BB) digital precoders are designed accounting for the multi-user interference. The Auto-HP neural network is trained end-to-end (E2E) in an unsupervised learning manner with a customized loss function that aims to maximizes the received signal strength. The adequacy of the Auto-HP NN's bottleneck layer dimension is evaluated from an information theory perspective, ensuring maximum data compression and reliable RF beam predictions. |
