TY - JOUR T1 - Digital Precoder-Combiner and Power Allocation Optimization in MU MIMO-NOMA: A Quantum Neural Network Approach AU - Waliani, Lia Suci AU - Shin, Soo Young JO - The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences PY - 2024 DA - 2024/1/1 DO - 10.7840/kics.2024.49.12.1739 KW - digital precoding KW - digital combiner KW - quantum neural network KW - wireless optimization AB - This paper proposes a quantum neural network (QNN) to address joint optimization in wireless communication. By utilizing the advantages of quantum entanglement and superposition in quantum computing and machine learning, QNN can solve optimization problems with lower complexity than classical neural networks, due to its parallel processing capabilities. Specifically, this study applies QNN to jointly optimize digital precoder-combiner and power allocation in a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MU MIMO-NOMA) system. The performance of the QNN is analyzed and presented.
