Abstract
This paper investigates the prediction of multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) narrow-band multipath fading channels for mobile-to-mobile (M-to-M) wireless communication systems. Using a statistical model for M-to-M communication in urban and suburban environments, we derive a parameterized double directional model and utilize a multidimensional extension of the ESPRIT algorithm to jointly estimate the angles of departure (AoD), angles of arrival (AoA), and effective Doppler frequencies. A simple method is also proposed for mobile velocity estimation. The parameter estimates are then used to forecast the M-to-M channel. The bound on the prediction error is derived using a vector formulation of the Cramer–Rao lower bound (CRLB). Simulations are used to evaluate the performance of the prediction scheme and to compare it to the derived error bound.
