Joint channel and impulsive noise estimation method for OFDM systems

Aiming at the impulsive noise occurring in OFDM systems,an impulsive noise mitigation algorithm based on compressed sensing theory was proposed.The proposed algorithm firstly treated the channel impulse response and the impulsive noise as a joint sparse vector by exploiting the sparsity of both them.Then the sparse Bayesian learning framework was adopted to jointly estimate the channel impulse response,the impulsive noise and the data symbols,in which the data symbols were regarded as unknown parameters.Compared with the existing impulsive noise mitigation methods,the proposed algorithm not only utilized all subcarriers but also did not use any a priori information of the channel and impulsive noise.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves significant improvement on the channel estimation and bit error rate performance.

Time-varying channel estimation in OFDM systems based on multiple symbols BEM

In view of the problem of low frequency spectrum utilization for the time-varying channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) systems based on basis expansion model (BEM),a new method based on multiple symbols BEM was proposed.Compared with the conventional method based on single symbol,the proposed method reduced the subcarriers for pilots.And by means of the baseline tilting technique,the new method mitigated the Gibbs phenomenon caused by Fourier series expansion.The theoretical analysis reveals that the channel model error is reduced due to the introduction of the baseline tilting technique when the normalized Doppler frequency is no more than $\frac{\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{M}}{1+\frac{N_g}{N}}$.Finally,the numerical simulation shows that compared with conventional methods,the proposed algorithm achieves significant improvement on the estimation error performance and bit error rate (BER) performance under the conditions of the corresponding time-varying channel.

Shifted Known Symbol Padding for Efficient Data Communication in a WLAN Context

To allow for a computationally efficient equalization scheme for the frequency-selective transmission channels encountered in wireless local area network (WLAN) applications, cyclic prefix (CP) block transmission schemes have been proposed, such as single-carrier CP (SC-CP) and multi-carrier CP (MC-CP) transmission, also known as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). In this letter, however, we focus on the known symbol padding (KSP) transmission scheme. In this scheme known padded sequences can be exploited for synchronization as well as for channel estimation. However, to simultaneously allow for low-complexity frequency-domain equalization and accurate channel estimation within the KSP context, a modified KSP scheme is proposed, namely shifted KSP (S-KSP). Comparing different block transmission schemes in the WLAN context, the S-KSP scheme is shown to offer a very good performance.

Joint MAP channel estimation and data detection for OFDM in presence of phase noise from free running and phase locked loop oscillator

This paper addresses a computationally compact and statistically optimal joint Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) algorithm for channel estimation and data detection in the presence of Phase Noise (PHN) in iterative Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) receivers used for high speed and high spectral efficient wireless communication systems. The MAP cost function for joint estimation and detection is derived and optimized further with the proposed cyclic gradient descent optimization algorithm. The proposed joint estimation and detection algorithm relaxes the restriction of small PHN assumptions and utilizes the prior statistical knowledge of PHN spectral components to produce a statistically optimal solution. The frequency-domain estimation of Channel Transfer Function (CTF) in frequency selective fading makes the method simpler, compared with the estimation of Channel Impulse Response (CIR) in the time domain. Two different time-varying PHN models, produced by Free Running Oscillator (FRO) and Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) oscillator, are presented and compared for performance difference with proposed OFDM receiver. Simulation results for joint MAP channel estimation are compared with Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB), and the simulation results for joint MAP data detection are compared with “NO PHN” performance to demonstrate that the proposed joint MAP estimation and detection algorithm achieve near-optimum performance even under multipath channel fading.     

A time-domain estimation method of rapidly time-varying channels for OFDM-based LTE-R systems

This paper addresses the performance of fast doubly selective fading channel estimation combined with Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) cancellation for Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication platform in the High Speed Railway (HSR) environment. We consider the Channel Impulse Response (CIR) coefficients with a critical Doppler frequency shift and multi-path fading that were taken from the WINNER II channel model and the D2a propagation scenario, where the conditions of HSR are analyzed. As multi-path fading increases and the channel varies in the order of the symbol period, we first propose a novel approach for designing a pilot symbol structure in the time domain. Then, we describe the deployment of the proposed pilot symbol structure to estimate the channel in the time domain. Channel information corresponding to the data positions is obtained by linear interpolation. In each OFDM symbol, the slope and the initial value for establishing an interpolation function are estimated to adapt to the time variation of the channel. An accurate estimate of channel state information is used for the purpose of ICI cancellation. The simulation results show that the channel estimated by our proposed method can follow the real channel well, even in a very high Doppler frequency. The estimation method in terms of Mean Squared Error (MSE) significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. The combination of our channel estimator with several interference cancelers provides a considerably better system performance than that achieved when frequency channel estimation is used.

基于星座点特征的OFDM残留频偏跟踪算法

残留频偏会导致星座点发生旋转,而且这种旋转与时间有关,时间越长,旋转越大。若残留频偏长时间得不到校正,将会使星座点旋转到其他象限从而出现判决错误,使系统的性能急剧恶化。针对这个问题,提出了一种基于星座点特征的残留频偏跟踪算法。该算法要求在信道估计之后完成,并假定一个OFDM帧内的信道频率响应保持不变。该算法包括三个步骤,首先将每个OFDM符号的星座点划分为四个子集,然后对每个子集的均值求相位角获得相位误差,最后经环路滤波器输出一个校正量补偿时域频偏。由于残留频偏估计值的提取充分利用了所有数据子载波信息,并对每个子集进行了求均值处理,所以有效的改善了环路的输入信噪比。它适用于子载波为QPSK或QAM调制的OFDM系统,不同的子载波调制方式跟踪范围不同,最大跟踪范围为±0.05个子载波间隔。仿真表明:新算法性能要优于基于循环前缀的算法,与基于导频的跟踪算法性能相当。

Frequency estimators for MIMO-OFDM systems

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are known to be sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO). This paper is concerned with the CFO estimation for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems employing OFDM waveforms. We present two approaches to derive maximum likelihood (ML) pilot-assisted frequency estimators that use either two or multiple identical training symbols. It is shown that the resulting ML frequency estimators are similar to maximum ratio combining versions of Moose estimator and Yu–Su solution, respectively. Numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed frequency estimators are robust against spatial Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) variation and they yield performance superior to that of the corresponding single-antenna system.
