Abstract
A convenient delay, Doppler and angular-(DDA) domain representation of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless channel is conceived for deriving the end to end relationship in the delay-Doppler (DD)-domain for orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS)-based communications. Subsequently, a time-domain pilot based model is developed for estimating the DDA-domain channel state information (CSI) of our MIMO OTFS system. The key differentiating feature of the CSI estimation model derived is its ability to exploit the 4-dimensional (4D)-sparsity arising in the DDA-domain, given the limited number of dominant scatterers. Furthermore, the training overhead of the proposed framework is low, and the pilot placement is quite flexible, necessitating no guard-interval. Finally, an orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) framework is employed for 4D-sparse CSI acquisition, followed by deriving the Oracle minimum mean squared error (Oracle-MMSE) and its Bayesian Cramer-Rao lower bound (BCRLB). Our simulation results confirm the improved CSI estimation performance attained over the benchmarks.
