farismismar / DL-CoMP-Machine-Learning

Code for my publication: F. B. Mismar and B. L. Evans, "Deep Learning in Downlink Coordinated Multipoint in New Radio Heterogeneous Networks", IEEE Wireless Communication Letters, vol. 8, no. 4, Aug. 2019, pp. 1040-1043, DOI 10.1109/LWC.2019.2904686.

For this code to work, please first obtain access to Vienna LTE-A Downlink System Level Simulator from https://www.nt.tuwien.ac.at/research/mobile-communications/vccs/vienna-lte-a-simulators/lte-a-downlink-system-level-simulator/

Also, the code uses matlab2tikz to plot figures, which can be separately downloaded from: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/22022-matlab2tikz-matlab2tikz

Reproducibility is not guaranteed unfortunately if the data_files/channel_traces/*.mat files are different or invalid. These files are made by the simulator and not from my codes.

An important file LTE_sim_main.m is missing since it is part of the Vienna LTE-A simulator. I had to modify this file to implement the various CoMP algorithms, but of course cannot share the file due to copyrights.
