Space-time block-coded systems using numeric variable forgetting factor least squares channel estimator

چکیده
In this correspondence, the bit-error-rate (BER) performance evaluation of the space-time block-coded (STBC) communication systems using the numeric-variable-forgetting-factor (NVFF) least-squares (LS) channel estimator is presented. The polynomial channel paradigm is incorporated in LS algorithm in conjunction with NVFF to improve the channel tracking performance under the nonstationary wireless environment. The implementation of NVFF precludes the usage of LMS based VFF updating, and it also reduces the computational complexity. The simulation results are presented to demonstrate that the BER performance of STBC communication system using the linear least squares algorithm based channel estimator with NVFF outperforms the higher-order polynomial model-based and conventional VFF-based approaches, when M-ary QAM signal constellations are used for the wireless transmission.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of maximumlikelihood (ML) multiuser detection in space-time coded CDMA systems with imperfect channel estimation. A -user synchronous CDMA system which employs orthogonal space-time block codes with transmit antennas and receive antennas is considered. A least-squares estimate of the channel matrix is obtained by sending a sequence of pilot bits from ea...

In a high-rate indoor wireless personal communication system, the delay spread due to multipath propagation results in intersymbol interference (ISI) which can signi cantly increase the transmission bit error rate (BER). Decision feedback equalizer (DFE) is an e cient approach to combating the ISI. Recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm with a constant forgetting factor is often used to update...

In this paper we propose a novel approach to estimating Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) channels in space-time coded systems. The channel is assumed to introduce dispersion in both the spatial and temporal dimensions. The channel estimator is obtained by applying the Maximum Likelihood principle not only over a known pilot sequence, as it is done in the classical Least-Squares approaches,...
