We propose a transmit power control (TPC) scheme for grant-free multiple access, where each device is able to determine its transmit power based on a TPC function. For the proposed scheme, we design a novel deep learning framework to jointly design the TPC functions and the parametric Stein’s unbiased risk estimate (SURE) approximate message passing (AMP) algorithm, which significantly improves the accuracy of active device detection and channel estimation, particularly for short pilot sequences. Simulations are conducted to demonstrate the advantages of our proposed deep learning framework on massive device activity detection and channel estimation compared to existing schemes.
