Abstract

Based on interpolation methods, a low complexity channel estimation method for MC-CDMA system based chaos under fast fading multipath channel is proposed.Different interpolation methods are used; Linear interpolation (LI), cubic spline interpolation (CSI), and piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation (PCHI). The multi-carrier scheme is established by using a chaotic generator with different initial conditions, while the pilots are established using another chaotic generator with another different initial conditions. The proposed channel estimator without and with interpolation methods for single user and multiusers is tested under fast frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. Simulation results demonstrate that the channel estimation of MC-CDMA system based chaos using interpolation methods and when the pilots are chaos signal too, achieves better performance improvement in fast multipath environment compared to the conventional MC-CDMA system when the pilots are considered as Walsh- Hadamard codes. The proposed system is also built and tested using Simulink program.
