Enhanced Channel Estimation Based On Basis Expansion Using Slepian Sequences for Time Varying OFDM Systems
The Channel estimation in OFDM has become very important to recover the accurate information from the received data as the next generation of wireless technology has very high data rate along with the very high speed mobile terminals as users. In addition the fast fading channels, ICI, multipath fading channels may completely destroy the data. Also it is required to use less complex method for estimation. We are proposing the method which compares the number of techniques and gives the results in BER Vs SNR graphs. The LS estimation technique is less complex as compared to MMSE estimation but gives fails in accuracy. Using Prolate function we can reduce the complexity in calculation of parameters. If compared with state of art approach where the complexity is O(N)3, the complexity using Prolate function is O(N)2.The function depends upon maximum delay and maximum Doppler frequency spread thus parameter calculation is reduced. The technique dose not calculate particular channel characteristics. Slepian sequences utilizes the bandwidth as the sharp pulses replace the regular rectangular pulses which causes spectral leakage and thus ICI. The simulation of BER Vs SNR using CP and UW with and without Prolate is proposed that increases spectral efficiency with reduced calculations replacing rectangular pulses by Slepian pulses which increase energy concentration by Sharpe pulses thus reduction in inter carrier interference caused by multipath fading.

Pilot Design for Enhanced Channel Estimation in Doubly Selective Channels
This paper investigates pilot design for enhanced channel estimation in single carrier communication systems over doubly-selective channels (DSC). Our contribution is twofold: first, we propose to use Huffman sequences as pilot clusters with low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), yet with good channel estimation performance when periodic pilot placement is adopted; second, we propose a low-complexity pilot placement strategy based on the analysis of the complex-exponential basis expansion model (CE-BEM) of the DSC. The latter leads to improved channel estimation performance with useful insights for pilot placement
Optimum Averaging of Superimposed Training Schemes in OFDM under Realistic Time-Variant Channels
The current global bandwidth shortage in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based systems motivates the use of more spectrally efficient techniques. Superimposed training (ST) is a candidate in this regard because it exhibits no information rate loss. Additionally, it is very flexible to deploy and it requires low computational cost. However, data symbols sent together with training sequences cause an intrinsic interference. Previous studies, based on an oversimplified channel (a quasi-static channel model) have solved this interference by averaging the received signal over the coherence time. In this paper, the mean square error (MSE) of the channel estimation is minimized in a realistic time-variant scenario. The optimization problem is stated and theoretical derivations are presented to attain the optimum amount of OFDM symbols to be averaged. The derived optimal value for averaging is dependent on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and it provides a better MSE, of up to two orders of magnitude, than the amount given by the coherence time. Moreover, in most cases, the optimal number of OFDM symbols for averaging is much shorter, about 90% reduction of the coherence time, thus it provides a decrease of the system delay. Therefore, these results match the goal of improving performance in terms of channel estimation error while getting even better energy efficiency, and reducing delays.This work was supported by the Spanish National Project Hybrid Terrestrial/Satellite Air Interface for 5G and Beyond - Areas of Dif-cult Access (TERESA-ADA) [Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO)/Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI)/Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER), Unión Europea (UE)] under Grant TEC2017-90093-C3-2-R
Joint channel estimation and data detection for OFDM systems over doubly selective channels
In this paper, a joint channel estimation and data detection algorithm is proposed for OFDM systems under doubly selective channels (DSCs). After representing the DSC using Karhunen-Loève basis expansion model (K-L BEM), the proposed algorithm is developed based on the expectationmaximization (EM) algorithm. Basically, it is an iterative algorithm including two steps at each iteration. In the first step, the unknown coefficients in K-L BEM are first integrated out to obtain a function which only depends on data, and meanwhile, a maximum a posteriori (MAP) channel estimator is obtained. In the second step, data are directly detected by a novel approach based on the function obtained in the first step. Moreover, a Bayesian Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (BCRB) which is valid for any channel estimator is also derived to evaluate the performance of the proposed channel estimator. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is finally corroborated by simulation results. ©2009 IEEE.published_or_final_versionThe 20th IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC 2009), Tokyo, Japan. 13-16 September 2009.

Superimposed training-based channel estimation and data detection for OFDM amplify-and-forward cooperative systems under high mobility
In this paper, joint channel estimation and data detection in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative systems under high mobility is investigated. Unlike previous works on cooperative systems in which a number of subcarriers are solely occupied by pilots, partial data-dependent superimposed training (PDDST) is considered here, thus preserving the spectral efficiency. First, a closed-form channel estimator is developed based on the least squares (LS) method with Tikhonov regularization and a corresponding data detection algorithm is proposed using the linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) criterion. In the derived channel estimator, the unknown data is treated as part of the noise and the resulting data detection may not meet the required performance. To address this issue, an iterative method based on the variational inference approach is derived to improve performance. Simulation results show that the data detection performance of the proposed iterative algorithm initialized by the LMMSE data detector is close to the ideal case with perfect channel state information. © 2006 IEEE.published_or_final_versio
Estimation and detection techniques for doubly-selective channels in wireless communications
A fundamental problem in communications is the estimation of the channel.
The signal transmitted through a communications channel undergoes distortions
so that it is often received in an unrecognizable form at the receiver.
The receiver must expend significant signal processing effort in order to be
able to decode the transmit signal from this received signal. This signal processing
requires knowledge of how the channel distorts the transmit signal,
i.e. channel knowledge. To maintain a reliable link, the channel must be
estimated and tracked by the receiver.
The estimation of the channel at the receiver often proceeds by transmission
of a signal called the 'pilot' which is known a priori to the receiver.
The receiver forms its estimate of the transmitted signal based on how this
known signal is distorted by the channel, i.e. it estimates the channel from
the received signal and the pilot. This design of the pilot is a function of the
modulation, the type of training and the channel. [Continues.

Robust Precoding for HF Skywave Massive MIMO with Slepian Transform
In this paper, we address robust precoding in high-frequency (HF) skywave massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with imperfect channel state information (CSI). We first employ a sparse beam based a posteriori channel model and demonstrate that robust precoding can be efficiently solved in the Slepian transform domain with a large number of base station (BS) antennas. Next, we introduce two Slepian transform based robust precoding methods, including a joint approach that leverages inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) for reduced complexity with a large number of user terminals (UTs). We then establish a local optimum for the Slepian transform domain robust precoder (STRP) design using the majorization minimization (MM) algorithm, taking advantages of HF skywave massive MIMO channel sparsity and Slepian sequence properties. Further, two distinct designs are presented: separate STRP (SSTRP) and joint STRP (JSTRP). Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of proposed robust precoders, showcasing their excellent ergodic sum-rate performance and low complexity.National Key R&D Program of China under Grant 2018YFB1801103; Jiangsu Province Basis Research Project under Grant BK20192002; Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities under Grant 2242022k60007; Key R&D Plan of Jiangsu Province under Grant BE2022067; Huawei Cooperation Project
Signal Detection for OFDM-Based Virtual MIMO Systems under Unknown Doubly Selective Channels, Multiple Interferences and Phase Noises
In this paper, the challenging problem of signal detection under severe communication environment that plagued by unknown doubly selective channels (DSCs), multiple narrowband interferences (NBIs) and phase noises (PNs) is investigated for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based virtual multiple-input multiple-output (OFDM-V-MIMO) systems. Based on the Variational Bayesian Inference framework, a novel iterative algorithm for joint signal detection, DSC, NBI and PN estimations is proposed. Simulation results demonstrate quick convergence of the proposed algorithm, and after convergence, the bit-error-rate performance of the proposed signal detection algorithm is very close to that of the ideal case which assumes perfect channel state information, no PN, and known positions and powers of NBIs plus additive white Gaussian noise. Furthermore, simulation results show that the proposed signal detection algorithm outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.published_or_final_versio
