Abstract

In this paper, a channel estimation problem for millimeter-wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with hybrid structures is studied. Firstly, a beamspace multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm for mmWave wideband channels is proposed to simultaneously estimate the angles of arrival (AOAs), angles of departure (AODs) and transmission delays. Since the traditional spectral peak search method has high complexity, a multi-spectral peak search method is skillfully designed to search for multiple spectral peaks on the MUSIC spatial spectrum more quickly and accurately. Then, the proposed channel estimator is extended to more actual systems equipped with uniform planar arrays (UPAs). Finally, the Cramér–Rao bound (CRB) results of these channel parameters are derived for evaluating the performance of the proposed channel parameter estimator. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed channel estimator has greatly high channel estimation accuracy.
