  Abstract

In this paper, we study signal detection in multi-input-multi output (MIMO) communications system with non-Gaussian noises such as Middleton Class A noise, Gaussian mixtures and alpha stable distributions, using several deep neural network-based detector models such as FULLYCONNECTED and DETNET detector. By applying information theoretic criterion of Maximum Correntropy , SVD analysis on the channel matrix and reducing network complexity, the suggested deep neural network detector performs well in environments with non-Gaussian noises and, compared to the deep neural network-based detector with MSE loss function, achieves better performance.
