Abstract
Channel estimation (CE) is a challenging problem and one of the key technologies in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The Linear Minimum Mean Square Error (LMMSE) proposed for OFDM systems has excellent Mean Square Error (MSE) performance. However, the conventional method requires the statistical knowledge of the channel information in advance and the complicated inverse operation of large dimension matrices. In this case, an enhanced fast LMMSE channel estimation using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) operation and the most significant taps (MST) algorithm for OFDM systems is proposed. This method has the advantage of low computational complexity and no requirement on the detailed channel information. In addition, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms other LMMSE methods in terms of bit error rate (BER) without the loss of MSE performance.
