This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supporting the expected high data rates required by wireless Internet and high-speed multimedia services is one of the basic requirements in broadband mobile wireless systems. However, the achievable capacity and data rate of wireless communication systems are limited by the time-varying nature of the channel. Efficient techniques for combating the time-varying effects of wireless channels can be achieved by utilizing different forms of diversity. In recent years, transmit diversity based on space-time coding (STC) has received more attention as an effective technique for combating fading. On the other hand, most existing space-time diversity techniques have been developed for flat-fading channels. Given the fact that wireless channels are generally frequency-selective, in this thesis, we aim to investigate the performance of space-time diversity schemes for wideband code-division multiple-access (WCDMA) systems over frequency-selective fading channels. The proposed receiver in this case is a rake-type receiver, which exploits the path diversity inherent to multipath propagation. Then, a decorrelator detector is used to mitigate the multiple access interference (MAI) and the known near-far problem. We derive the bit error rate (BER) expression over frequency-selective fading channels considering both the fast and slow fading cases. Finally, we show that our proposed receiver achieves the full system diversity through simulation and analytical results. Most of the work conducted in this area considers perfect knowledge of the channel at the receiver. Hence, channel identification brings significant challenges to multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) CDMA systems. In light of this, we propose a channel estimation and data detection scheme based on the superimposed training-based approach. The proposed scheme enhances the performance by eliminating the MAI from both the channel and data estimates by employing two decorrelators; channel and data decorrelators. The performance of the proposed estimation technique is investigated over frequency-selective slow fading channels where we derived a closed-form expression for the BER as a function of the number of users, K, the number resolvable paths, L, and the number of receive antennas, V . Finally, our proposed scheme is shown to be more robust to channel estimation errors. Furthermore, both the analytical and simulation results indicate that the full system diversity is achieved. Considering that training estimation techniques suffer either from low spectral efficiency (i.e., conventional training approach) or from high pilot power consumption (i.e., superimposed training-based approach), in the last part of the thesis, we present an iterative joint detection and estimation (JDE) using the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for MIMO CDMA systems over frequency-selective fading channels. We also derive a closed-form expression for the optimized weight coefficients of the EM algorithm, which was shown to provide significant performance enhancement relative to the conventional equal-weight EM-based signal decomposition. Finally, our simulation results illustrate that the proposed receiver achieves near-optimum performance with modest complexity using very few training symbols.

Download or read book Contributions on Receiver Design and Channel Estimation for Multi carrier DS CDMA Mobile Systems written by Ali Jamoos and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation deals with the development of receivers and channel estimation techniques for multi-carrier DS-CDMA mobile wireless systems. Two major problems should be taken into account in that case. Firstly, the Multiple Access Interference (MAI) caused by other users. Secondly, the multi-path fading of mobile wireless channels. In the first part of the dissertation, we propose two adaptive structures (called separate and joint detection) to design Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) receivers, based on the Affine Projection Algorithm (APA). These receivers are able to suppress the MAI, particularly when the fading channel is time-invariant. However, as they require a training sequence for every active user, we then propose two blind adaptive multiuser receiver structures based on a blind APA-like multiuser detector. In that case, only the knowledge of the spreading code of the desired user is required. When the spreading codes of all users are available, a decorrelating detector based receiver is proposed and is able to completely eliminate the MAI without any training. In the second part, as receiver design usually requires the estimation of the channel, we propose several training-based algorithms for the estimation of time-varying Rayleigh fading channels in multi-carrier systems. For this purpose, the fading channels are approximated by autoregressive (AR) processes whose order is higher than two. The first algorithm makes it possible to jointly estimate the channel and its AR parameters based on two-cross-coupled Kalman filters. Nevertheless, this filtering is based on restrictive Gaussian assumptions. To relax them, we investigate the relevance of a structure based on two-cross-coupled H_inf filters. This method consists in minimizing the influence of the disturbances such as the additive noise on the estimation error. Finally, we propose to view the channel estimation as an Errors-In-Variables (EIV) issue. In that case, the channel AR parameters and the variances of both the driving process and the measurement noise in the state-space representation of the system are estimated from the null space of suitable correlation matrices.

Abstract: Abstract of the Thesis Entitled Estimation of Fading Channel in DS-CDMA Multiuser Communications Systems submitted by Fung Chun Yu for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in December 2002 Multipath fading and multiuser access interference are two major impairments in direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) systems. Efficient channel estimation and multiuser detection techniques play important roles in overcoming these deficiencies. This thesis is concerned with the design of a space-time (ST) blind adaptive receiver for DS-CDMA systems and the accompanied channel estimation algorithm. A new space-time decorrelating RAKE (ST-DRAKE) receiver is developed for blind reception of CDMA signals in frequency-selective fading channels. It has the advantage that only the knowledge of the desired user's signature waveform is required and therefore no transmission of training sequence is needed. The ST-DRAKE receiver consists of two parts. The first part is a set of constrained adaptive filters that are designed to suppress interference based on the minimum output energy criterion. These filters are implemented in a structure analogous to the general sidelobe canceller in array processing, which is implemented by a multistage Weiner filter is employed to reduce the complexity of the receiver. The second part of the ST-DRAKE receiver coherently combines the outputs of the constrained adaptive filters and gives an estimate of the transmitted signal. Simulation results show that the ST- DRAKE delivers significant performance improvement by exploiting the spatial diversity of the antenna array. The problem of estimating fast fading channels in the proposed receiver is also addressed. The time-varying channel is modeled as an autoregressive process and the Kalman filter is employed to estimate the time-varying channel coefficients. A robust Kalman filter based on the M-estimate cost function is also developed to suppress impulsive noise present in the received signals. Simulation results show that the Kalman filter provides more accurate channel estimate to the ST-DRAKE than using the decomposition method. Simulation results also show that the coupled receiver has a performance comparable to the optimum minimum mean-squared error receiver with known channel information.

Book Channel Estimation in Multicarrier Communication Systems

Book excerpt: The data rate and spectrum efficiency of wireless mobile communications have been significantly improved over the last decade or so. Recently, the advanced systems such as 3GPP LTE and terrestrial digital TV broadcasting have been sophisticatedly developed using OFDM and CDMA technology. In general, most mobile communication systems transmit bits of information in the radio space to the receiver. The radio channels in mobile radio systems are usually multipath fading channels, which cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) in the received signal. To remove ISI from the signal, there is a need of strong equalizer which requires knowledge on the channel impulse response (CIR). This is primarily provided by a separate channel estimator. Usually the channel estimation is based on the known sequence of bits, which is unique for a certain transmitter and which is repeated in every transmission burst. Thus, the channel estimator is able to estimate CIR for each burst separately by exploiting the known transmitted bits and the corresponding received samples. In this thesis we investigate and compare various efficient channel estimation schemes for OFDM systems which can also be extended to MC DS-CDMA systems. The channel estimation can be performed by either inserting pilot tones into all subcarriers of OFDM symbols with a specific period or inserting pilot tones into each OFDM symbol. Two major types of pilot arrangement such as block type and comb type pilot have been focused employing Least Square Error (LSE) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) channel estimators. Block type pilot sub-carriers is especially suitable for slow-fading radio channels whereas comb type pilots provide better resistance to fast fading channels. Also comb type pilot arrangement is sensitive to frequency selectivity when comparing to block type arrangement. However, there is another supervised technique called Implicit Training (IT) based channel estimation which exploits the first order statistics i.

Book Channel Estimation Techniques for OFDM Systems in Dispersive Time varying Channels

Download or read book Channel Estimation Techniques for OFDM Systems in Dispersive Time varying Channels written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coherent modulation is more effective than differential modulation for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems requiring high data rate and spectral efficiency. Channel estimation is therefore an integral part of the receiver design. In this thesis, two iterative maximum likelihood based channel estimation algorithms are proposed for an OFDM system in dispersive time-varying channels. A multipath channel model is proposed for OFDM uplink transmission in macrocellular systems. The multipath fading channel is modeled such that the channel state can be determined by estimating the unknown channel parameters. A second-order Taylor series expansion is adopted to simplify the channel estimation problem. Based on the system model, an iterative maximum likelihood based algorithm is first proposed to estimate the discrete-time channel parameters. The mean square error performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed using a small perturbation technique. Based on a convergence rate analysis, an improved iterative maximum likelihood based channel estimation algorithm is presented using a successive overrelaxation method. Numerical experiments are performed to confirm the theoretical analyses and show the improvement in convergence rate of the improved algorithm.

This book was released on 2011-08-14 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volumes discusses various aspects regarding the capacity/achievable data rate of stationary Rayleigh fading channels. First, it analyses bounds on the achievable data rate with zero-mean proper Gaussian input symbols, which are capacity achieving in the coherent case, i.e., in case of perfect channel knowledge at the receiver. These bounds are tight in the sense that the difference between the upper and the lower bound is bounded for all SNRs. The lower bound converges to the coherent capacity for asymptotically small channel dynamics. Furthermore, these bounds are extended to the case of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels and to the case of frequency selective channels. In a further part, the present work studies the achievable rate with receivers based on synchronized detection and a code-aided channel estimation. For a specific type of such a receiver an approximate upper bound on the achievable rate is derived. The comparison of this approximate upper bound and the achievable data rate with receivers using synchronized detection based on a solely pilot based channel estimation gives an approximate upper bound on the possible gain by using this kind of code-aided channel estimation in comparison to the conventional receiver using a solely pilot based channel estimation. In addition, the achievable data rate with an optimal joint processing of pilot and data symbols is studied and a lower bound on the achievable rate for this case is derived. In this context, it is also shown which part of the mutual information of the transmitter and the receiver is discarded when using the conventional receiver with synchronized detection based on a solely pilot based channel estimation.
