Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems have inherent symmetric properties, such as coding and decoding, constellation mapping and demapping, inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) and fast Fourier transform (FFT) operations corresponding to multi-carrier modulation and demodulation, and channel estimation is a necessary module to resist channel fading in the OFDM system. However, the noise in the channel will significantly affect the accuracy of channel estimation, which further affects the recovery quality of the final received signals. Therefore, this paper proposes an efficient noise suppression channel estimation method for OFDM systems based on adaptive weighted averaging. The basic idea of the proposed method is averaging the last few channel coefficients obtained from coarse estimation to suppress the noise effect, while the average frame number is adaptively adjusted by combining Doppler spread and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) information. Meanwhile, to better combat the negative effect brought by Doppler spread and inter-carrier interference (ICI), the proposed method introduces a weighting factor to correct the weighted value of each frame in the averaging process. Simulation results show that the proposed channel estimation method is effective and provides better performance compared with other conventional channel estimation methods.

An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is one of the effective techniques used in wireless communications. In OFDM systems, channel impairments due to multipath dispersive wireless channels can cause deep fades in wireless channels. The OFDM receiver also requires an accurate and computationally efficient channel state information when coherent detection is involved. Therefore, it needs a good robust estimation method of the channel in wireless communication for OFDM systems. And one of these channel estimation methods is minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation. MMSE channel estimation one most used method in OFDM systems. In this work we enhanced robustness of MMSE channel estimation by using it in base of quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) coded OFDM system.

<p>Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a transmission system that uses multiple orthogonal carriers that are sent out at the same time. OFDM is a technique for mobile and wireless communication that has high-efficient frequency utilization, high data-rate transmission, simple and efficient implementation using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) and the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT), and reduces inter symbol interference (ISI) by inserting cyclic prefix (CP). One of the most important approaches in an OFDM system is channel estimation. In this paper, the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system with the Rayleigh channel module is analyzed for different areas. The proposed approach used large numbers of subcarriers to transmit the signals over 64-QAM modulation with pilot add channel estimation. The accuracy of the OFDM system is shown in the measuring of the relationships of peak power to the noise ratio and bit error rate.</p>

In wireless communication, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) plays a major role because of its high transmission rate. Channel estimation and tracking have many different techniques available in OFDM systems. Among them, the most important techniques are least square (LS) and minimum mean square error (MMSE). In least square channel estimation method, the process is simple but the major drawback is it has very high mean square error. Whereas, the performance of MMSE is superior to LS in low SNR, its main problem is it has high computational complexity. If the error is reduced to a very low value, then an exact signal will be received. In this paper an extensive review on different channel estimation methods used in MIMO-OFDM like pilot based, least square (LS) and minimum mean square error method (MMSE) and least minimum mean square error (LMMSE) methods and also other channel estimation methods used in MIMO-OFDM are discussed.

In order to track the changing channel in multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems, it is prior to estimate channel impulse response adaptively. In this paper, we proposed an adaptive blind channel estimation method based on parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC). We used an exponential window to weight the past observations; thus, the cost function can be constructed via a weighted least squares criterion. The minimization of the cost function is equivalent to the decomposition of third-order tensor which consists of the weighted OFDM data symbols. To reduce the computational load, we adopt a recursive singular value decomposition method for tensor decomposition; then, the channel parameters can be estimated adaptively. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm under diverse signalling conditions.

In this paper, we will focus on channel estimation (CE) in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The time-varying (TV) channelsare modeled by a basis expansion model (BEM). Due to the time-variation, the channel matrix in the frequency domain is no longer diagonal, but approximately banded.We use a pilot-aided algorithm for estimation of rapidly varying wireless channels in OFDM systems. Theperforms is goodwhen the channels vary on the scale of a single OFDM symbol duration, which occurs in mobile communication scenarios such as WiMAX, WAVE, and DVB-T.We recover Fourier coefficients of the channel taps by the pilot information.We then estimate the BEM coefficients of the channel taps from their respective Fourier coefficients using a recently developed inverse reconstruction method.We compare some BEM models in inverse methodsto find out the best ones in certain conditions.

Abstract In this paper, a new channel estimation algorithm in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed. The proposed algorithm is suitable for cases with low density of pilot sub-carriers, where standard interpolation methods (linear, second order and cubic spline interpolation) are inaccurate. The algorithm improves the interpolation methods by employing memory based collaborative filtering (CF) techniques which are less sensitive to the number and location of the pilot subcarriers. CF algorithms are usually used in the context of recommender systems (e-commerce) for predictions of the unknown user-item ratings based on known values of similar users. The advantage of CF is the ability to e ciently produce quality predictions with highly sparse data. Computer simulations are used to verify the proposed channel estimation algorithm and demonstrate that the proposed algorithm improves predictive accuracy metrics, such as Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), compared to usual estimation methods.

International audience OFDM based pilots channel estimation methods with processing into the transform domain appear attractive owing to their capacity to highly reduce the noise component effect. However, in current OFDM systems, null subcarriers are placed at the edge of the spectrum in order to assure isolation from interfering signals in neighboring frequency bands; and the presence of these null carriers may lead, if not taken into account, to serious degradation of the estimated channel responses due to the “border effect” phenomenon. In this paper an improved algorithm based on truncated SVD is proposed in order to correctly support the case of null carriers at border spectrum. A method for optimizing the truncation threshold whatever the system parameters is also proposed. To make the truncated SVD channel estimation method applicable to any SISO or MIMO OFDM system and whatever the system parameters, a complexity reduction algorithm based on the distribution of the power in the transfer matrix (based on DFT or DCT) is proposed. Les techniques d’estimation de canal, basée sur des symboles pilotes, par passage dansun domaine de tranfert sont très attractives pour les systèmes de télécommunications utilisant l’OFDM.Cependant, elles montrent des limites pour les systèmes de télécommunications, où un ensemble desous-porteuses de garde, est inséré sur les bords du spectre dans le but d’éviter tout recouvrementspectral avec d’autres applications utilisant des bandes voisines. Ces sous-porteuses de gardeont selon leur nombre tendance à dégrader fortement les performances de ces estimateurs. Nousproposons, dans un premier temps, une optimisation qui permet d’améliorer considérablement lesperformances de ces estimateurs quels que soit le nombre de porteuses de garde. Dans un secondtemps, pour de rendre l’estimateur proposé attractif pour les constructeurs, nous avons proposé unetechnique permettant de réduire leur complexité de réalisation de manière notable.

Channel estimation is an important module for improving the performance of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. The pilot-based least square (LS) algorithm can improve the channel estimation accuracy and the symbol error rate (SER) performance of the communication system. In pilot-based channel estimation, a certain number of pilots are inserted at fixed intervals between OFDM symbols to estimate the initial channel information, and channel estimation results can be obtained by one-dimensional linear interpolation. The minimum mean square error (MMSE) and linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) algorithms involve the inverse operation of the channel matrix. If the number of subcarriers increases, the dimension of the matrix becomes large. Therefore, the inverse operation is more complex. To overcome the disadvantages of the conventional channel estimation methods, this paper proposes a novel OFDM channel estimation method based on statistical frames and the confidence level. The noise variance in the estimated channel impulse response (CIR) can be largely reduced under statistical frames and the confidence level; therefore, it reduces the computational complexity and improves the accuracy of channel estimation. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed channel estimation method based on the confidence level in time-varying dynamic wireless channels.
