Semiblind joint channel estimation and equalization for OFDM systems in rapidly varying channels
Abstract
We describe a new joint iterative channel estimation and equalization algorithm for joint channel estimation and data detection for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in the presence of frequency selective and rapidly timevarying channels. The algorithm is based on the expectation maximization-maximum a posteriori (EM-MAP) technique which is very suitable for the multicarrier signal formats. The algorithm leads to a receiver structure that yields the equalized output using the channel estimates. The pilot symbols are employed to estimate the initial channel coefficients effectively and unknown data symbols are averaged out in the algorithm. The band-limited discrete cosine serial expansion of low dimensionality is employed to represent the time-varying fading channel. In this way the resulting reduced dimensional channel coefficients are estimated iteratively with tractable complexity. The extensive computer simulations show that the algorithm has excellent symbol error rate (SER) and mean square error (MSE) performances for very high mobility even during the initialization step.

Publisher and Date:(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018)Communication over acoustic signals underwater results in multi-scale multi-lag channels due to multipath propagation. Hence a robust channel estimation technique has to be present at the receiver. In this paper assuming underwater channels undergoing Rayleigh fading a path-based channel model that characterizes each path of the time-varying sparse channel by a delay a Doppler scale and an attenuation factor is considered.

Spline Interpolation Based Channel Estimation for ACO-OFDM over Visible Light Channels
Visible light communication has been considered one of promising candidate technology to solve performance limitation due to bandwidth shortage at radio frequency (RF) band. In VLC system the visible light is used not only for illuminating rooms but also for an optical data transmission. ACO-OFDM is a power efficient modification of OFDM to use in VLC systems. Wireless communication systems generally require estimating and tracking the fading channel in order to detect transmitted data coherently. ...
