A message passing algorithm for compressed sensing in wireless random access networks

In this paper, we consider the joint multiuser detection and channel estimation problem in wireless random access networks which consists of a large number of users with a single antenna and a base station (BS) multiple antennas. We first convert the problem into the compressed sensing framework and then propose a message passing (MP) algorithm which reduces the implementation complexity at BS. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed MP algorithm becomes improved as the number of antennas at BS.
