Abstract

Provided is an active user detection and channel estimation method of a base station in a wireless communication system based on grant-free uplink transmission. The method, according to one embodiment, comprises the steps of: receiving superimposed signals () from k active terminals; by using a first artificial neural network and using the received signals () as input, calculating, for all terminals in a cell of a base station, an estimated probability ({circumflex over (Ω)}) of each of the terminals being an active terminal; and estimating channels of the active terminals by using a second artificial neural network and using the received signals () and an active user detection result value as input.
