MIMO-OFDM Channel Estimation - A Pilot Sequence Design for Time-Domain Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract: A pilot sequence design for MIMO-OFDM systems is investigated where all transmit antennas share the same sub-carriers to convey pilot symbols. The pilot sequences are endowed with phase-shifting properties, granting the receiver the possibility of extracting the impulse responses for all channels directly from the antennas’ time-domain received signals, without co-channel interference. A linear processing of the timedomain samples is all that is needed to get the channel impulse responses, resulting in an algorithm with very low computational load. The feasibility of the investigated method is substantiated by system simulation using indoor and outdoor broadband wireless channel models.

Challenge of Channel Estimations and Its Way Out in MIMO OFDM Systems for Mobile Wireless Channels
In current common channel estimation schemes for MIMO OFDM systems, channel state information is usually achieved by estimating channels according to frequency domain pilot sequences. However, when the length of MIMO OFDM symbols is larger than that of wireless channel delay, there are two intractable issues in the case of cellular fast fading channel scenarios with large numbers of users, i.e....

This paper describes a least squares (LS) channel estimation scheme for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems based on pilot tones. We first compute the mean square error (MSE) of the LS channel estimate. We then derive optimal pilot sequences and optimal placement of the pilot tones with respect to this MSE. It is shown that the optimal...
