Estimation of Carrier Frequency Offset With I/Q Mismatch Using Pseudo-Offset Injection in OFDM Systems

This work presents a novel carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation algorithm, based on pseudo-CFO (P-CFO), to estimate the CFO value under the conditions of I/Q mismatch for direct conversion structures with 2-dB gain error and 20-deg. phase error in frequency selective fading channels. To circumvent CFO with I/Q mismatch, the proposed P-CFO algorithm rotates three training symbols by adding extra frequency offset into the received sequence to improve CFO estimation. Simulation results indicate that the estimation error of the proposed method is about 0.3 ppm, which is lower than those of two-repeat preamble-based methods. Additionally, the proposed P-CFO algorithm is compatible with the conventional method, and is appropriate for SoC implementation. The proposed scheme is implemented as part of an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing wireless receiver fabricated in a 0.13-mum CMOS process with 3.3 times 0.4 mm² core area and 10-mW power consumption at 54-Mbits/s data rate.     

Iterative rake receiver with map channel estimation for ds-cdma systems

We propose an iterative rake receiver structure using an optimum semi-blind channel estimation algorithm for ds-cdma mobile communication systems. This receiver performs an iterative estimation of the channel according to the maximum a posteriori criterion, using the expectation-maximization algorithm. This estimation process requires a convenient representation of the discrete multipath fading channel based on the Karhunen-Loève orthogonal expansion theorem. The rake receiver uses pilot as well as unknown control and data symbols optimally for improving channel estimation quality. Moreover, it can take into account the coded structure of all unknown transmitted symbols when channel estimation quality is poor or unsatisfactory. The validity of the proposed method is highlighted by simulation results obtained for the FDD mode of the umts interface.     

An EM-Based Iterative Receiver for MIMO-OFDM Under Interference-Limited Environments

In this paper, we derive an iterative receiver for multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. As MIMO-OFDM is considered for future cellular systems, the iterative receiver is investigated when the co-channel interference (CCI) exists. It is assumed that the CCI's are also OFDM signals. Since a joint detection of the desired signal and CCI is difficult, we only detect the desired signal, while the CCI is assumed to be a (colored) noise. This approach can avoid the channel estimation and detection of the CCI and keep the complexity of the receiver low. The proposed iterative receiver estimates the channel impulse response of the desired signal and the covariance matrix of the CCI for the detection based on a generalized expectation- maximization (GEM) algorithm. Through GEM iterations, we can observe the performance is improved.     

Multiple Invariance MUSIC-Based Blind Carrier Frequency Offset Estimation for OFDM System with Multi-Antenna Receiver

In this paper, we address the problem of carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with multi-antenna receiver. The received signal can be reconstructed to form data model with multi-invariance property, and then a multi-invariance MUSIC algorithm for CFO estimation is proposed. This algorithm has better performance of CFO estimation than ESPRIT method, multi-invariance ESPRIT method and trilinear decomposition algorithm, and also qualifies the estimation for both integer CFO and fractional CFO. Simulation results illustrate validity of this algorithm.     

Analysis and design of joint CFO/channel estimate techniques for a cooperative STBC‐OFDM system

This paper studies the joint estimation technique of carrier frequency offset (CFO) and channel information for a distributed decode‐and‐forward (DF) cooperative space‐time block‐coded (STBC) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. For the considered relay system, we provide theoretical analysis of the effects upon the output signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR), which is caused by the CFO/channel estimation error. Based on the provided analytical results, a joint CFO/channel estimation scheme is then developed, where the CFO estimate is achieved by a multiple‐dimensional linear search algorithm. Furthermore, we propose an alternative estimation solution with iteration approach being designed for the CFO estimation prior to the channel estimation. In contrast to the former estimator, the iterative method enjoys the advantage of the substantially reduced implementation complexity without sacrificing the estimate performance. The conducted computer simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.     

An iterative maximum SINR receiver for multicarrier CDMA systems over a multipath fading channel with frequency offset

A robust iterative multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) receiver with adaptive multiple-access interference (MAI) suppression is proposed for a pilot symbols assisted system over a multipath fading channel with frequency offset. The design of the receiver involves a two-stage procedure. First, an adaptive filter based on the generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) technique is constructed at each finger to perform despreading and suppression of MAI. Second, pilot symbols assisted frequency offset estimation, channel estimation and a RAKE combining give the estimate of signal symbols. In order to enhance the convergence behavior of the GSC adaptive filters, a decisions-aided scheme is proposed, in which the signal waveform is first reconstructed and then subtracted from the input data of the adaptive filters. With signal subtraction, the proposed MC-CDMA receiver can achieve nearly the performance of the ideal maximum signal-to-interference-plus noise ratio receiver assuming perfect channel and frequency offset information. Finally, a low-complexity partially adaptive (PA) realization of the GSC adaptive filters is presented as an alternative to the conventional multiuser detectors. The new PA receiver is shown to be robust to multiuser channel estimation errors and offer nearly the same performance of the fully adaptive receiver.     

Iterative receiver for OFDM-SDMA system

An iterative receiver is proposed based on the EM (Expectation-Maximization) algorithm for an OFDM-SDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing-Space Division Multiple Access) system. By using a few pilots in every OFDM symbol, both channel estimation and multiuser detection can be simultaneously obtained by iteration. The computer simulation results show this receiver can track channel variations and detect multiuser symbols for different number of users under time-varying multipath channels.
