When the channel is modeled by an autoregressive (AR) process, it can be estimated by using a Kalman filter. However, this solution requires the preliminary unbiased estimations of the AR parameters and the variances of both the additive noise and the driving process in the state space representation of the system. Instead of using the existing noise compensated approaches which usually require a long observation window and do not necessarily provide reliable estimates when the signal to noise ratio is low, we propose an alternative approach using recent results developed for the errors-in-variables (EIV) issue. This method consists in estimating the kernel of specific autocorrelation matrices and has the advantage of providing both the noise variances and the channel AR parameters. Moreover, the maximum Doppler frequency can be also deduced","PeriodicalId":414942,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE 7th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123312085","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}
