In this paper, we investigate the pilot design and channel estimation problem in MIMO-OFDM-based C-V2X systems with severe co-channel interference due to spectrum reusing among different V2X communication links. By using zero-correlation zone(ZCZ) sequences, we provide an interference-free pilot design scheme and a corresponding time-domain(TD) correlation-based channel estimation(TD-CCE) method. We employ the ZCZ sequences from the same family set to be designed as the TD pilot symbols and guarantee the pilot sequeneces for neighboring V2X communication links are code-division multiplexing(CDM). The co-channel pilot interference of the deisgned pilot symbols can be effectively eliminated by exploiting the provided TD-CCE method. Simulation results indicate that the accuracy of channel estimation can be effectively improved by the proposed scheme, whose performance is close to that of the non-interference situation.展开更多

Different from traditional pilot-aided estimation, semiblind estimation utilizes the unknown data symbols in addition to the known pilot symbols to estimate the channel. An initial channel state information （CSI） obtained by least-squared （LS） estimation is needed in semi-blind estimation. BFGS （Brayben, Fletcher, Goldfarb and Shanno） algorithm, which employs data as well as pilot symbols, estimates the CSI though solving the problem provided by maximum-likelihood （ML） principle. In addition, mean-square-error （MSE） used to evaluate the estimation performance can be further minimized with an optimal pilot design. Simulation results show that the semi-blind estimation achieves a significant improvement in terms of MSE performance over the conventional LS estimation by utilizing data symbols instead of increasing the number of pilot symbols, which demonstrates the estimation accuracy and spectral efficiency are both improved by semiblind estimation for C-RANs.展开更多

In block transmission, a unique word(UW) can be used as a cyclic prefix and reference signal. However, the DCS-based channel estimation requires diversity sequences instead of UW. In this paper, we proposed a novel method that employs a training sequence(TS) whose duration time is slightly longer than the maximum delay spread time. Based on proposed TS, the DCS approach perform perfectly in multipath channel estimation. Meanwhile, a cyclic prefix construct could be formed, which reduces the complexity of the frequency domain equalization(FDE) directly. Simulation results demonstrate that, by using the method of simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit(SOMP), the required channel overhead has been reduced thanks to the proposed TS.展开更多

文摘In this paper,a fast orthogonal matching pursuit(OMP)algorithm based on optimized iterative process is proposed for sparse time-varying underwater acoustic(UWA)channel estimation.The channel estimation consists of calculating amplitude,delay and Doppler scaling factor of each path using the received multi-path signal.This algorithm,called as OIP-FOMP,can reduce the computationally complexity of the traditional OMP algorithm and maintain accuracy in the presence of severe inter-carrier interference that exists in the time-varying UWA channels.In this algorithm,repeated inner product operations used in the OMP algorithm are removed by calculating the candidate path signature Hermitian inner product matrix in advance.Efficient QR decomposition is used to estimate the path amplitude,and the problem of reconstruction failure caused by inaccurate delay selection is avoided by optimizing the Hermitian inner product matrix.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the computational complexity of the OIP-FOMP algorithm is reduced by about 1/4 compared with the OMP algorithm,without any loss of accuracy.
文摘Pilot pattern has a significant effect on the performance of channel estimation based on compressed sensing.However,because of the influence of the number of subcarriers and pilots,the complexity of the enumeration method is computationally impractical.The meta-heuristic algorithm of the salp swarm algorithm(SSA)is employed to address this issue.Like most meta-heuristic algorithms,the SSA algorithm is prone to problems such as local optimal values and slow convergence.In this paper,we proposed the CWSSA to enhance the optimization efficiency and robustness by chaotic opposition-based learning strategy,adaptive weight factor,and increasing local search.Experiments show that the test results of the CWSSA on most benchmark functions are better than those of other meta-heuristic algorithms.Besides,the CWSSA algorithm is applied to pilot pattern optimization,and its results are better than other methods in terms of BER and MSE.

文摘The extra-large scale multiple-input multiple-output(XL-MIMO)for the beyond fifth/sixth generation mobile communications is a promising technology to provide Tbps data transmission and stable access service.However,the extremely large antenna array aperture arouses the channel near-field effect,resulting in the deteriorated data rate and other challenges in the practice communication systems.Meanwhile,multi-panel MIMO technology has attracted extensive attention due to its flexible configuration,low hardware cost,and wider coverage.By combining the XL-MIMO and multi-panel array structure,we construct multi-panel XL-MIMO and apply it to massive Internet of Things(IoT)access.First,we model the multi-panel XL-MIMO-based near-field channels for massive IoT access scenarios,where the electromagnetic waves corresponding to different panels have different angles of arrival/departure(AoAs/AoDs).Then,by exploiting the sparsity of the near-field massive IoT access channels,we formulate a compressed sensing based joint active user detection(AUD)and channel estimation(CE)problem which is solved by AMP-EM-MMV algorithm.The simulation results exhibit the superiority of the AMP-EM-MMV based joint AUD and CE scheme over the baseline algorithms.

文摘In this paper, a quasi-Newton method fbr semi-blind estimation is derived for channel estimation in uplink cloud radio access networks （C-RANs）. Different from traditional pilot-aided estimation, semiblind estimation utilizes the unknown data symbols in addition to the known pilot symbols to estimate the channel. An initial channel state information （CSI） obtained by least-squared （LS） estimation is needed in semi-blind estimation. BFGS （Brayben, Fletcher, Goldfarb and Shanno） algorithm, which employs data as well as pilot symbols, estimates the CSI though solving the problem provided by maximum-likelihood （ML） principle. In addition, mean-square-error （MSE） used to evaluate the estimation performance can be further minimized with an optimal pilot design. Simulation results show that the semi-blind estimation achieves a significant improvement in terms of MSE performance over the conventional LS estimation by utilizing data symbols instead of increasing the number of pilot symbols, which demonstrates the estimation accuracy and spectral efficiency are both improved by semiblind estimation for C-RANs.

文摘Studies have indicated that the distributed compressed sensing based(DCSbased) channel estimation can decrease the length of the reference signals effectively. In block transmission, a unique word(UW) can be used as a cyclic prefix and reference signal. However, the DCS-based channel estimation requires diversity sequences instead of UW. In this paper, we proposed a novel method that employs a training sequence(TS) whose duration time is slightly longer than the maximum delay spread time. Based on proposed TS, the DCS approach perform perfectly in multipath channel estimation. Meanwhile, a cyclic prefix construct could be formed, which reduces the complexity of the frequency domain equalization(FDE) directly. Simulation results demonstrate that, by using the method of simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit(SOMP), the required channel overhead has been reduced thanks to the proposed TS.

文摘Intelligent reflecting surface(IRS),with its unique capability of smartly reconfiguring wireless channels,provides a new solution to improving spectrum efficiency,reducing energy consumption and saving deployment/hardware cost for future wireless networks.In this paper,IRS-enabled spectrum sharing is investigated,from the perspectives of interference modeling,efficient channel estimation and robust passive beamforming design.Specifically,we first characterize the interference in a spectrum sharing system consisting of a single primary user(PU)pair and a single secondary user(SU)pair,and extend it to the large-scale network by leveraging the Poisson point process(PPP).Then,we propose an efficient channel estimation framework based on decoupling the cascaded IRS channels.Moreover,the tradeoff between spectrum efficiency and energy efficiency is derived from the view of channel estimation accuracy.Finally,we discuss the robust passive beamforming design in presence of imperfect channel estimation and nonideal/discrete phase shifts.It is hoped that this paper provides useful guidance for unlocking the full potential of IRS for achieving efficient spectrum sharing for future wireless networks.

文摘An enhanced expectation maximization （ with channel time variation is proposed for mobile EM） based iterative channel estimator for coping multiple input multi output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （MIMO OFDM） systems. In the proposed scheme, the recursive least squares （RLS） algorithm is applied to track the time varying channel impulse response （CIR） within several symbols. By using the tracked time varying CIR, the ICI are constructed and then cancelled from the received signal, thus reducing their impactions on the channel estimation. Moreover, based on an o ver sampled complex exponential basis expansion model （ OCE BEM）, an improved channel predic tor is derived in order to improve the initial channel estimates accuracy of the iterative estimator. Simulation results show that ying scenarios with a smaller the proposed scheme outperforms the classic counterpart in time var cost of complexity.

文摘Space shift keying (SSK) is a spectrally efficient and low-complexity technique that only uses antenna index to convey information.Combining SSK with cooperative communication,the transmission reliability of SSK system can be improved effectively.In this paper,considering imperfect channel information,the performance of cooperative SSK system with amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying protocol is investigated,and the effect of estimation error on the performance is analyzed.According to the performance analysis,the probability density function and moment generating function of effective signal-to-noise ratio are derived,respectively.Using these results,the closed-form expression of average bit error rate (BER) can be achieved.Meanwhile,the asymptotically approximated BER and the corresponding diversity order analysis are presented for the performance evaluation.By computer simulations,the validness of the presented theoretical analysis is verified,and the theoretical BERs with different estimation errors are shown to be close to those of the corresponding simulations.
