Abstract
The design of expectation-maximisation (EM)-based turbo receivers for low-density parity-check-coded multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with the presence of carrier-frequency offset (CFO) is studied. First, starting from the maximum-likelihood principle, a novel EM-based CFO estimator for MIMO-OFDM systems is devised. This estimator iteratively provides the CFO estimate with the aid of pilot symbols. It is also capable of accommodating any space-time-coded-OFDM transmission. Then this CFO estimator is incorporated into the initialisation step of the turbo receiver. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the receiver design in combating CFO over unknown frequency-selective fading channels.
