Abstract
With the widespread use of massive multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) technology in current wireless networks, network optimization faces much higher costs due to the significantly increased angular space. Digital twin (DT), as a promising tool to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of performance evaluation, still faces many challenges for massive MIMO optimization, where the complex channel characteristics and the system performance uncertainty over randomly distributed user equipment (UE) position both make it difficult to obtain an explicit relationship expression between the beamforming parameters at the base station (BS) and the system performance. In this article, we propose a conditional generative adversarial network (C-GAN) based digital twin network (DTN), which can fit the mapping from the beamforming to the system performance and match the distribution of system performance under a certain beamforming configuration over different UE position simultaneously. Moreover, it provides a generalized way for pre-validation of different key performance indicators (KPIs) and further raises the accuracy via data augmentation. QuaDRiGa based simulations validate the effectiveness of our proposed method in system performance modeling and KPI prediction.
