Tensor Decomposition Based Beamspace ESPRIT for Millimeter Wave MIMO Channel Estimation
We propose a search-free beamspace tensor-ESPRIT algorithm for millimeter wave MIMO channel estimation. It is a multidimensional generalization of beamspace-ESPRIT method by exploiting the multiple invariance structure of the measurements. Geometry-based channel model is considered to contain the channel sparsity feature. In our framework, an alternating least squares problem is solved for low rank tensor decomposition and the multidimensional parameters are automatically associated. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by considering different transformation schemes
Tensor Decomposition-based Beamspace Esprit Algorithm for Multidimensional Harmonic Retrieval
Beamspace processing is an efficient and commonly used approach in harmonic retrieval (HR). In the beamspace, measurements are obtained by linearly transforming the sensing data, thereby achieving a compromise between estimation accuracy and system complexity. Meanwhile, the widespread use of multi-sensor technology in HR has highlighted the necessity to move from a matrix (two-way) to tensor (multi-way) analysis. In this paper, we propose a beamspace tensor-ESPRIT for multidimensional HR. In our algorithm, parameter estimation and association are achieved simultaneously
5G multi-BS positioning with a single-antenna receiver
Cellular localization generally relies on timedifference-of-arrival (TDOA) measurements. In this paper, we investigate a novel scenario where the mobile user estimates its own position by jointly exploiting TDOA and angle of departure (AOD) measurements, which are estimated from downlink transmissions in a millimeter-wave (mmWave) multiple-input singleoutput (MISO) setup. We first perform a Fisher information analysis to derive the lower bounds on the estimation accuracy, and then propose a novel localization algorithm, which is able to provide improved performance also with few transmit antennas and limited bandwidth
5G Positioning and Mapping with Diffuse Multipath
5G mmWave communication is useful for positioning due to the geometric
connection between the propagation channel and the propagation environment.
Channel estimation methods can exploit the resulting sparsity to estimate
parameters(delay and angles) of each propagation path, which in turn can be
exploited for positioning and mapping. When paths exhibit significant spread in
either angle or delay, these methods breakdown or lead to significant biases.
We present a novel tensor-based method for channel estimation that allows
estimation of mmWave channel parameters in a non-parametric form. The method is
able to accurately estimate the channel, even in the absence of a specular
component. This in turn enables positioning and mapping using only diffuse
multipath. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the
proposed approach
