Abstract
In multiuser MIMO uplink, different pairs of transmitter and receiver may have different time delays and carrier frequency offsets (CFOs). This causes the time delay and CFO estimations much more difficult than those for a single input single output (SISO) system. It is a challenging problem to resolve the time delays and CFOs in the MIMO uplink. In this paper, an asynchronous multiuser MIMO system with multipath channels and CFOs is remodeled into another system. A blind method based on second order statistics is then used for estimating the shaped channels with ambiguity. Based on the shaped channels, specially designed pilots are proposed to find the CFOs. The same pilots are also used for resolving the time delays and the ambiguity in the estimated channels. Only upper bounds for the channel orders and time delays are needed for implementing the algorithms, which makes them applicable to practical multiuser MIMO systems.
