Full-Duplex Generalized Spatial Modulation: A Compressed Sensing-Based Signal Detection

In this paper, we propose a novel low-complexity signal detection technique based on compressed sensing for a full-duplex generalized spatial modulation (FD-GSM) system, where a communication node transmits data symbols via some antennas and receives data symbols via the remaining antennas at the same time. Thus, each antenna operates as either transmitter or receiver in each symbol time, which implies FD-GSM can be implemented with half-duplex antennas. In particular, parallel orthogonal matching pursuit (POMP) algorithm is exploited as a sparse signal recovery algorithm for detecting GSM signals. The self-interference (SI) due to full-duplex operation is assumed to be completely removed by help of the recently proposed SI cancellation techniques. The proposed signal detection technique significantly outperforms the conventional OMP algorithm in terms of symbol error rate (SER). Interestingly, there exists an optimal number of active antennas for maximizing effective throughput.
