Since maximum-likelihood sequence estimation is too complex to perform, multiuser receivers are proposed based on the sequential expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. With prior knowledge of only the signature waveforms, the delays and the second-order statistics of the fading channel, the receivers sequentially estimate the channel using the sequential EM algorithm. The snapshot estimates of each path are further tracked by linear minimum-mean-squared-error (MMSE) filters and the user data are detected by a maximum-likelihood sequence detector, given the channel estimates. The proposed receivers that use the exact expressions have a computational complexity O(2/sup K/) per bit, where K is the number of users. Using the traditional EM algorithm, we derive low-complexity approximations which have a complexity of O(K/sup 2/) per bit. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed receivers offer substantial performance gains over conventional pilot-symbol assisted techniques and achieve a performance close to the known-channel bounds. Furthermore, the proposed receivers even outperform the single-user RAKE receiver with Nyquist pilot-insertion rate in a single-user environment.","PeriodicalId":162055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings IEEE 56th Vehicular Technology Conference","volume":"222 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115656587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monte Carlo simulation shows that the concatenated code performs better than turbo code alone. When a turbo interleaver of 4096/spl times/2 bits is used, the Eb/No to obtain a frame-error rate of 10/sup -3/ is about 3.6 dB for the concatenated code, about 3.8 dB for the turbo code alone with an S-random interleaver (S=47), and more than 4.4 dB for the turbo code alone with a random interleaver. In the high signal-to-noise ratios region, a lower bit-error rate is observed with the concatenated code than with the turbo code alone. A concatenated code using a double-iterated decoding system will thus improve the BER and FER of turbo codes.","PeriodicalId":162055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings IEEE 56th Vehicular Technology Conference","volume":"270 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115816711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The estimation of channel at pilot frequencies is based on LS and LMS while the channel interpolation is done using linear interpolation, second order interpolation, low-pass interpolation, spline cubic interpolation, and time domain interpolation. Furthermore, the channel estimation based on block type pilot arrangement is performed by sending pilots at every sub-channel and using this estimation for a specific number of following symbols. We have also implemented a decision feedback equalizer for all sub-channels followed by periodic block-type pilots.

Applying a multidimensional high-resolution channel parameter estimation procedure the descriptive parameters for any relevant propagation path including the path weights, time-delay, Doppler shift and the propagation directions at both ends of the wireless link are extracted simultaneously from the measurement data. from the estimated parameter sets then a local reconstruction of the multidimensional wave fields in the vicinity of the measured aperture volumes in time, space and frequency is possible. Since this way the measurement antenna properties are excluded from the channel, the influence of a variety of application specific array architectures can be investigated.
