Compressive sensing based Bayesian sparse channel estimation for OFDM communication systems: high performance and low complexity
In orthogonal frequency division modulation (OFDM) communication systems,
channel state information (CSI) is required at receiver due to the fact that
frequency-selective fading channel leads to disgusting inter-symbol
interference (ISI) over data transmission. Broadband channel model is often
described by very few dominant channel taps and they can be probed by
compressive sensing based sparse channel estimation (SCE) methods, e.g.,
orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm, which can take the advantage of sparse
structure effectively in the channel as for prior information. However, these
developed methods are vulnerable to both noise interference and column
coherence of training signal matrix. In other words, the primary objective of
these conventional methods is to catch the dominant channel taps without a
report of posterior channel uncertainty. To improve the estimation performance,
we proposed a compressive sensing based Bayesian sparse channel estimation
(BSCE) method which can not only exploit the channel sparsity but also mitigate
the unexpected channel uncertainty without scarifying any computational
complexity. The propose method can reveal potential ambiguity among multiple
channel estimators that are ambiguous due to observation noise or correlation
interference among columns in the training matrix. Computer simulations show
that propose method can improve the estimation performance when comparing with
conventional SCE methods.Comment: 24 pages,16 figures, submitted for a journa
High mobility in OFDM based wireless communication systems
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been adopted as the transmission scheme in most of the wireless systems we use on a daily basis. It brings with it several inherent advantages that make it an ideal waveform candidate in the physical layer. However, OFDM based wireless systems are severely affected in High Mobility scenarios. In this thesis, we investigate the effects of mobility on OFDM based wireless systems and develop novel techniques to estimate the channel and compensate its effects at the receiver. Compressed Sensing (CS) based channel estimation techniques like the Rake Matching Pursuit (RMP) and the Gradient Rake Matching Pursuit (GRMP) are developed to estimate the channel in a precise, robust and computationally efficient manner. In addition to this, a Cognitive Framework that can detect the mobility in the channel and configure an optimal estimation scheme is also developed and tested. The Cognitive Framework ensures a computationally optimal channel estimation scheme in all channel conditions. We also demonstrate that the proposed schemes can be adapted to other wireless standards easily. Accordingly, evaluation is done for three current broadcast, broadband and cellular standards. The results show the clear benefit of the proposed schemes in enabling high mobility in OFDM based wireless communication systems.Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) wurde als Übertragungsschema in die meisten drahtlosen Systemen, die wir täglich verwenden, übernommen. Es bringt mehrere inhärente Vorteile mit sich, die es zu einem idealen Waveform-Kandidaten in der Bitübertragungsschicht (Physical Layer) machen. Allerdings sind OFDM-basierte drahtlose Systeme in Szenarien mit hoher Mobilität stark beeinträchtigt. In dieser Arbeit untersuchen wir die Auswirkungen der Mobilität auf OFDM-basierte drahtlose Systeme und entwickeln neuartige Techniken, um das Verhalten des Kanals abzuschätzen und seine Auswirkungen am Empfänger zu kompensieren. Auf Compressed Sensing (CS) basierende Kanalschätzverfahren wie das Rake Matching Pursuit (RMP) und das Gradient Rake Matching Pursuit (GRMP) werden entwickelt, um den Kanal präzise, robust und rechnerisch effizient abzuschätzen. Darüber hinaus wird ein Cognitive Framework entwickelt und getestet, das die Mobilität im Kanal erkennt und ein optimales Schätzungsschema konfiguriert. Das Cognitive Framework gewährleistet ein rechnerisch optimales Kanalschätzungsschema für alle möglichen Kanalbedingungen. Wir zeigen außerdem, dass die vorgeschlagenen Schemata auch leicht an andere Funkstandards angepasst werden können. Dementsprechend wird eine Evaluierung für drei aktuelle Rundfunk-, Breitband- und Mobilfunkstandards durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen den klaren Vorteil der vorgeschlagenen Schemata bei der Ermöglichung hoher Mobilität in OFDM-basierten drahtlosen Kommunikationssystemen
Alternating projections gridless covariance-based estimation for DOA
We present a gridless sparse iterative covariance-based estimation method
based on alternating projections for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation. The
gridless DOA estimation is formulated in the reconstruction of
Toeplitz-structured low rank matrix, and is solved efficiently with alternating
projections. The method improves resolution by achieving sparsity, deals with
single-snapshot data and coherent arrivals, and, with co-prime arrays,
estimates more DOAs than the number of sensors. We evaluate the proposed method
using simulation results focusing on co-prime arrays.Comment: 5 pages, accepted by (ICASSP 2021) 2021 IEEE International Conference
