چکیده
In this paper we address the problem of channel estimation for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output OFDM systems for mobile users. Channel tracking and equalization method stemming from Kalman filtering is proposed for time-frequency selective channels. Tracking of MIMO channel matrix is performed in time-domain and equalization in frequency domain. Computational complexity is significantly reduced by applying the matrix inversion lemma. Simulation results are presented using realistic channel model in typical urban scenarios.

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...

The high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and MIMO-OFDM systems reduces the system efficiency. In this paper, an extension of Tone Reservation (TR) method is introduced for PAPR reduction in Space Frequency Block Coded OFDM (SFBC-OFDM) systems. The proposed algorithm is based on a time domain kernel which is added to the signal of the anten...

متن کاملUsing WPT as a New Method Instead of FFT for Improving the Performance of OFDM Modulation
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is used in order to provide immunity against very hostile multipath channels in many modern communication systems.. The OFDM technique divides the total available frequency bandwidth into several narrow bands. In conventional OFDM, FFT algorithm is used to provide orthogonal subcarriers. Intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interferen...

This paper proposes an efficient scheme to track the time variant channel induced by multi-path Rayleigh fading in mobile wireless multiple input multiple output–orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO–OFDM) systems with null sub-carriers. In the proposed method, a blind channel response predictor is designed to cope with the time variant channel. The proposed channel tracking scheme c...
