Abstract
Owing to the rapid development and broad adoption of multiple antenna communication systems over the past few years, space-time block coding (STBC) identification has emerged as a crucial responsibility for smart radios. The majority of previous analysis of STBC identification assumed that the utilized modulation schemes for single-user and uncoded broadcasts were known. This paper investigates the challenge of joint STBC and modulation identification for uplink transmissions with numerous users in single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems using coded transmissions. Multi-user channel estimation brings us one step closer to implementing the proposed design in real-world systems. We additionally employ the channel decoder’s deliverables, which are common in many real-world systems, to enhance the identifying and estimating procedures. Mathematical findings prove that a recursive approach can be utilized to tackle the maximum likelihood (ML) problem of simultaneous STBC and modulation identification with channel estimation. Distinguishing the superimposed signals that originate at the base-station (BS) is accomplished with the use of the space-alternating generalized expectation-maximization (SAGE) algorithm. After that, an expectation-maximization (EM) engine is deployed to make the necessary adjustments to the parameters being considered for each user. The success of the above-mentioned architecture for usage in practical applications is demonstrated by the simulation results obtained under various conditions.
