Abstract
The present invention relates to a memory controller and a memory device that are configured to communicate with each other using multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology. The memory controller includes a precoder that precodes data for transmission. The precoding is based on channel state information, a neural network, or both. The memory device receives the precoded data and decodes them to retrieve the original data. In some cases, the precoder uses the channel state information to optimize the precoding matrix for the given channel conditions. In some cases, a neural network is trained to predict the optimal precoding matrix for the current channel state. The precoding matrix is then used to encode the data, which is then transmitted to the memory device. The use of MIMO and precoding improves the reliability and efficiency of the communication between the memory controller and memory device.
