一种循环前缀为PN序列的OFDM信道估计算法

与传统的正交频分复用（OFDM）频域信道估计方法不同，提出了一种循环前缀为PN序列的OFDM信道估计方法：在时域OFDM符号中不插入传统意义上的循环前缀，而是插入PN序列作为训练序列，将PN序列与对应的接收序列作圆周相关处理获得信道频率响应估计；而由于PN序列周期性出现，它也起到了循环前缀的作用。仿真结果表明：在多径瑞利衰落信道中，在相同信噪比和相同信道利用率的条件下，提出的算法比频域梳状导频插入的时域滤波算法具有更高的信道估计精度。     

Carrier Frequency Offset Estimation using Data-Dependent Superimposed Training

In this letter we propose, for the first time, a solution to the problem of carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation within the data dependent superimposed training (DDST) framework for channel estimation. While time division multiplexed (TDM) trained systems can use the TDM sequence to determine the CFO, the original attraction of DDST for channel estimation was that it avoided any TDM training. So in this letter we show how CFO estimation can still be very effectively performed with the DDST algorithm, while continuing to preclude the need for any additional bandwidth-consuming TDM training. Finally, simulations are presented that verify the theoretical results.

It is demonstrated that, due to the suggested channel estimate updating algorithm, the proposed scheme improves the channel estimation accuracy significantly.

An EME blind source separation algorithm based on generalized exponential function

This letter investigates an improved blind source separation algorithm based on Maximum Entropy （ME） criteria. The original ME algorithm chooses the fixed exponential or sigmoid ftmction as the nonlinear mapping function which can not match the original signal very well. A parameter estimation method is employed in this letter to approach the probability of density function of any signal with parameter-steered generalized exponential function. An improved learning rule and a natural gradient update formula of unmixing matrix are also presented. The algorithm of this letter can separate the mixture of super-Gaussian signals and also the mixture of sub-Gaussian signals. The simulation experiment demonstrates the efficiency of the algorithm.     

Robust beamforming in the MISO downlink with quadratic channel estimation and optimal training

Estimation of the channel state information (CSI) in quadratic form (i.e., quadratic channel estimation) in the downlink can be performed at the base station by using the relayed signals from the mobile users, which facilitates optimization with transmitter CSI. In this letter, the condition for the optimal training sequence for quadratic channel estimation in a multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) antenna system in the downlink is first obtained. The mean-square-error (MSE) in the CSI estimate is then analyzed. Based on the quadratic CSI estimates, a robust beamforming optimization algorithm to minimize the base station power while achieving individual users' quality-of-service (QoS) constraints, measured by the MSE in data reception, is proposed.

Propagator based closed-form blind carrier frequency offset estimation for OFDM systems

Most of the blind Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing （OFDM） Carrier Frequency Offset （CFO） estimators necessitate large number of samples to ensure the estimation accuracy. However, the number of samples can not be selected too large because of the carrier offset drift. In this letter, a new closed form algorithm for blind OFDM CFO estimation in frequency-selective channel is proposed. This method utilizes the propagator obtained from data matrix and the diagonal loading technique, thus it has better performance even only using one or two OFDM blocks. Furthermore, the range of the CFO estimation which can be handled is overall transmission spectral. Simulation results confirm its effectiveness.

Adaptive channel estimation using cyclic prefix in multicarriermodulation system

Multicarrier modulation (MCM) is a promising technique for high rate data transmission and the channel estimation is very important for the implementation of MCM. We found that the cyclic prefix, originally used solely to reduce the intersymbol interference (ISI), can be viewed as a source of channel information. Based on this observation, we propose an adaptive channel estimation algorithm using the cyclic prefix. This algorithm can adaptively track the channel variation without additional training sequences     

Symbol-rate estimation based on template matching rules

For non-cooperative communication, the symbol-rate estimation of digital communication signal is an important problem to be solved. In this letter, A new algorithm for the symbol-rate estimation of single-tone digitally modulated signal （i.e. MPSK/QAM） is proposed. Firstly a section from the received signal is cut as the template, and then the signal is matched sectionwise by making use of the signal selfsimilarity. So a signal containing the information of symbol jumping is got, and the symbol-rate can be estimated by DFT （Discrete Fourier Transformation）. The validity of the new method has been verified by experiments.
