Joint channel estimation and equalization for fast time-variant multipath channels
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a method for joint channel and data estimation for transmission over frequency–selective and time–variant channels. Hereby, fast time–variant channels can be tracked, which is important for mobile communications at very high velocities. We approach the problem by estimating the scattering function, which is assumed to be limited in delay and Doppler frequency. At the transmitter, a short training sequence is inserted at the beginning of the data block. This sequence is used for initializing a Kalman filter, which carries out the joint channel and data estimation adaptively. After the training sequence hypothetical data symbols are considered to extend the persecuted paths in the data tree.

Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization for Orthogonal STBC over Frequency-Selective MIMO-PLC channels
In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...

Recently, space-time block coding has emerged as a promising spatial transmit diversity scheme, mainly due to its simple decoding complexity. As it was initially proposed, spacetime block coding was based on the assumption of flat multipath fading channel, where there is no intersymbol interference. In this paper, we investigate the performance of two different receiver proposals using space-ti...
متن کاملPerformance of joint equalization and trellis-coded modulation on multipath fading channels
AbstmctIn the literature the performance of joint maximum-likelihood sequence estimation for trellis-coded modulation systems was analyzed under the assumption that fading is so slow that the channel does not change during all error events. In this paper we extend the performance analysis to general fading processes by considering the correlation function of the time-variant channel impulse res...

Single-carrier linear modulation techniques combined with frequency-domain equalization provide a viable alternative to multicarrier techniques for combating multipath fading in channels with large delay spread. Such modulations tolerate frequency offset and have well controlled peak to average power ratio. They have comparable complexity to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) sys...
