Generative Diffusion Models for High Dimensional Channel Estimation
This paper introduces a novel approach to high-dimensional wireless channel estimation using generative diffusion models (DMs). By leveraging DMs as a deep generative prior, the method achieves high-fidelity channel recovery and significantly reduces estimation latency compared to state-of-the-art techniques. It also supports low-resolution quantized measurements and learning from noisy channel realizations, addressing practical deployment challenges.

DM-Based Channel Estimation
Utilizing Diffusion Models as a data-driven generative prior to characterize high-dimensional MIMO channels, formulating a posterior channel estimator given pilot observations. Combines prior information from a pre-trained DM with a closed-form approximation of the likelihood term for iterative conditional posterior estimation.
Quantized Channel Estimation
Adapting the proposed method for channel estimation with low-resolution ADCs by modifying the likelihood information corresponding to quantized measurements. This is the first work to investigate DM applications in few-bit quantized receivers, achieving notable performance enhancements.
Learning from Noisy Realizations
Integrating Stein's unbiased risk estimator (SURE) denoising into DM training to enable learning from noisy channel data. This provides robust prior knowledge for channel estimation and facilitates over-the-air implementation without substantial clean channel datasets.
