Adaptive prediction Iterative Channel Estimation for Combined Antenna Diversity and Coherent Rake Reception of Mulipath-faded DSSS Signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Adaptive prediction iterative channel estimation is presented for combined antenna diversity and coherent rake reception of direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) signals. Its first stage uses pilot-aided adaptive prediction channel estimation, while the succeeding iteration stages use decision feedback and moving average filtering for channel re-estimation. The bit error rate (BER) performance of DSSS signal transmission in a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel is evaluated by computer simulations. It is found that the adaptive prediction iterative channel estimation is superior to the non adaptive iterative channel estimation using the conventional weighted multi-slot averaging (WMSA) filtering at the first iteration stage, particularly in a fast fading channel.

A coherent rake combiner is employed as the channel matched filter in a DS-CDMA mobile radio. However, as the number of propagation paths increases, the coherent rake receiver incurs a serious degradation in the bit error rate (BER) performance due to severe inter-path interference (IPI).

For the coherent reception of DS-CDMA signals, this paper proposes a new adaptive channel estimation scheme using multiple sets of adaptive filter tap weights, each set being used for channel estimation at different symbol position. For updating each set of tap weights using the normalized least mean square (NLMS) algorithm, a block of known pilot symbols is time-multiplexed with the data modul...
متن کاملIterative Channel Estimation for Frequency-Domain Equalization of DSSS Signals
As the channel frequency selectivity becomes severer, the bit error rate (BER) performance of direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) signal transmission with rake combining degrades due to an increasing inter-path interference (IPI). Frequency-domain equalization (FDE) can replace rake combining with much improved BER performance in a severe frequency-selective fading channel. For FDE, accurate...
