Abstract: Channel estimation is crucial for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to scale up multi-user (MU) MIMO, providing great improvement in spectral and energy efficiency. The nature of non-orthogonal cause pilot contamination is experienced only while estimating multi-cell MIMO scheme with the training and it is misplaced while narrowing concentration to multi-cell or one-cell setting, where information of the channel is assumed to be obtainable at no cost. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) serves numerous users concurrently utilizing channel gain differences. The advancement in massive MIMO-NOMA technology has offered diverse techniques recently for reducing pilot contamination in massive MIMO-NOMA based on pilot allocation. Here, a new approach called War Strategy Chimp Optimization+Deep Neuro-Fuzzy Network (WSChO+DNFN) is designed for the estimation of channels to reduce pilot contamination in a massive MIMO-NOMA system. It takes place in two phases, the transmitter and the receiver phase. The channel estimation is conducted by DNFN that is tuned by devised WSChO. Furthermore, WSChO is an amalgamation of War Strategy Optimization (WSO) and Chimp Optimization Algorithm (ChOA). Additionally, the WSChO+DNFN attained minimal values of BER and normalized MSE of 0.000103 and 0.000074, respectively. The proposed method has achieved a performance gain of 44.39%, 19.26%, 9.17%, 5.22%, 9.92%, and 6.03% compared to the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), Group Successive Interference Cancellation assisted Semi-Blind Channel Estimation Scheme (GSIC_SBCE), Sector-Based Pilot Assignment Scheme (PAS), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), User Segregation based Channel Estimation (USCE), Optimal Channel Estimation using Hybrid Machine Learning (OCE_HML), respectively.
