Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In actual mobile radio systems, multipath conditions pose a problem, as the channel becomes frequency dependent. This point is especially critical in case of high frequency transmissions with very high data rate and high error performance, such as defined in the IEEE 802.15.3c which is an emerging 60-GHz standard supporting data rates of multi-giga bits per second (multi-Gbps) for short-range indoor applications. The deployment of such high speed wireless transmission has been very difficult throughout history mainly by two critical factors: the first one was the lack of wide enough spectrum and the second one is the high cost of high frequency circuits and devices. However, this trend is changing to the point that not too long ago, the substantial unlicensed spectrum became available at the millimeter-wave band of 60-GHz. Also, the advancement in technology drives the cost of 60-GHz circuits and devices much lower than in the past making possible its use for high definition audio and video wireless transmissions. In order to overcome the transmission channel issues, it is necessary to include a channel equalizer in the receiver, which must estimate the channel impulse response and make some operations to transform the frequency dependent channel to a flat channel. Nevertheless, the equalizer technology will depend on three different factors: first one the physical layer (PHY) technique under consideration for multi-Gbps Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) which basically could be orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or single-carrier frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE); second, the channel impulse response estimation carried out in order to determine the channel transfer function H(f), existing several methods to obtain an estimation; and third, the used equalization method and structure in order to reverse all distortions produced by the channel. This Master thesis has been carry out during an Erasmus program in the Technische Universitat of Braunchweig, Germany, and it is the first part of a whole European project for the study, analysis and deployment of the IEEE 802.15.3c standard for wireless communications with very high data rate and high error performance in the 60-GHz band. According to the instructions and requirements defined by professor Thomas Kürner which was in charge of this project, this thesis include: first, a theoretical study of all the different propagation effects which could affect a wireless communication channel in order to run not only the simulations presented in this thesis but also the future simulations; second, the development of a model in Matlab/Simulink that will be useful to carry out all the project simulations (taken into account the specifications collected in IEEE 802.15.3c standard); third, the results of the carried simulations for Single Carrier Channel estimation and equalization by using two different equalization methods in the frequency domain: Zero Forcing and Minimum Mean Square Error equalization. Taking this into account, the thesis is organized as follows. Section I is dedicated to the study of all the different propagation effects and problems which affects a wireless communication transmissions; In Section II, technologies and Physical Layer Modes are described attending the IEEE 802.15.3c in order to learn its different characteristics for the subsequent channel estimation; Section III is devoted to channel estimation and equalization methods description; estimation and equalization methods are selected in order to carry out the simulations in Section IV; finally, in Section V the developed system simulator as well as the obtained simulation results are presented after implementation of Zero Forcing and Minimum Mean Square Error equalization methods in Matlab/Simulink.

Download or read book Estimation and Equalization of Communications Channels Using Wavelet Transforms written by Canute Vaz and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation features the development of signal processing strategies for the estimation of the impulse responses of channels and the equalization of the effects of channels on communications signals propagating through them using the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The two strategies are developed as part of a wavelet-based signal processing platform, which can be used to enable reconfigurable radio transceivers. In broad terms, the approach that is taken is to recast standard discrete time-domain signal processing procedures into a DWT-based framework. To facilitate this, three equivalent techniques of DWT-based convolution are devised. The techniques are described analytically using a systems-theoretic approach. The convolution techniques use both standard subband coding as well as polyphase filter implementations. Consequent to the development of DWT-based convolution is a DWT-based deconvolution procedure that is derived analytically. The deconvolution procedure is then applied to the problem of the estimation of several time-invariant multipath communications channels. Conditions of slow and fast fading are considered, and faded test signals are also subjected to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) that result in ratios of bit-energy-to-noise-power-density, Eb/N0, in the range of 0 to 60 dB. Monte Carlo simulations of the estimation of the channel impulse responses yield Mean-Square Error (MSE) results with excellent statistical agreement even for coarse levels of DWT resolution when compared with standard discrete time-domain deconvolution. Using DWT-based convolution the linear equalization techniques of Zero Forcing Equalization (ZFE) and Minimum Mean-Squared Error (MMSE) equalization, are formulated and implemented in the wavelet-domain. Monte Carlo simulations of the equalization of a fast fading channel with Eb/N0 in the range from 0 dB to 60 dB show that the performance of both linear equalizers in the time and wavelet-domains is essentially identical. Allied with the primary objective of the dissertation, both DWT-based channel estimation and equalization are included in communications systems. In Monte Carlo simulations of these systems, signals that are digitally modulated with the Binary Amplitude Shift Keying (BASK), Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) and 16-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (16-QAM) schemes are propagated through a fast fading channel. The faded signals are subjected to AWGN resulting in Eb/N0 in the range from 0 dB to 20 dB. The performance of these hybrid time- and DWT-based communications systems is evaluated with Symbol Error Rate (SER) curves that show no decrease in performance when compared with discrete time-domain system methods.

Download or read book Design of Channel Estimation and Equalization for OFDM Systems written by Ali Salah Mahdi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is one of the multicarrier techniques which is robust against Inter-symbol-Interference, multipath fading and very easy to apply in transmitters by using inverse fast Fourier transform IFFT and at the receivers by using fast Fourier transform FFT. In a communication system, channel estimation is very important issue for the data detection. In coherent detection, one of the popular techniques is to use pilot tones as a reference signal in OFDM symbols. In the comb-type pilot tones insertion, pilot tones are inserted into each OFDM symbols, but inserting a large number of pilot tones will lead to channel capacity reduction or bandwidth expansion [1-2]. In this work, to overcome this transmission loss, a modified least square (ModLS) algorithm for fast time varying wireless channel at comb-type pilot arrangement in QAM signals for OFDM system is proposed. The simulation results obtained from the proposed algorithm showed a good performance in noisy wireless channels. In addition, it has been compared with least square (LS) algorithm in different signal to noise ratios and different channel tabs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Channel modeling, estimation and equalization are discussed throughout this dissertation. Relevant research topics are first studied at the beginning of each chapter and the new methods are proposed to improve the system performance. MLSE is an optimum equalizer for all the case. However, due to its computational complexity, it is impractical for today technologies in third generation wireless communication. Thus, a suboptimum equalizer so-called perturbation equalizer is proposed, which outperforms the RSSE equalizer in the sense of bit error rate or computational complexity. In order to improve the system performance dramatically, the iterative equalization algorithm is implemented. It has been shown that the turbo equalization using the trellis based Maximum A Posteriori equalizer is a powerful receiver that yielding the optimum system performance. Unfortunately, due to its exhausted computational complexity, a suboptimal equalizer is required. An improved DFE algorithm, which only requires low computational complexity, is proposed for turbo equalization. The promising simulation results indicate that the proposed equalizer provides significant improvement in bit error rate while compared to the conventional DFE algorithm. Prior to channel equalization, channel estimation enable us to extract the necessary channel information from the pilot symbols for equalizers. Least-squares algorithm is a promising estimation algorithm providing the channel is time-invariant in a given period. Based on the derivations, we show that the channel is no longer constant and a new least-squares based algorithm is proposed to estimate the channel accurately. Simulation results convince us that the new algorithm provides the equalizer more reliable information. Besides, antenna diversity is another promising technique implemented practically to improve the system performance provided that the channels of antennas are not correlated. A new three dimensional multiple-input multiple-output abstract model is proposed for the investigation and understanding of the correlation of fading channel. The new model allows us to consider the channel correlation of which the mobile stations receive the incoming waves from any directions and angle spreads. Based on this abstract model, the closed form and mathematical tractable formula is derived for space-time correlation function. The new function can be further simplified other known special cases.
