Novel Spectral Efficient Technique for MIMO-OFDM Channel Estimation with Reference to PAPR and BER Analysis

Abstract

With emerge of increasing research in domain of future wireless communications, massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) attracted most of researchers interests. Massive MIMO is nothing but high speed wireless communication standards. The performance of MIMO systems is based on techniques used for channel estimation. Efficient channel estimation leads to spectral efficient wireless communications. There are number of channel estimation techniques presented recently in literature with pros and cons. The recent method shows the spectral and bit error rate (BER) efficiency, however apart from this, there is need of improving the peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Recently we proposed, novel channel estimation method as the existing channel estimation techniques failed to effectively solve the inter symbol interference (ISI) problem. The presence of ISI in MIMO-OFDM may leads to worst performance. Our proposed blind channel estimation is combined with independent component analysis (ICA) hence this method is called as hybrid ICA (HICA) to minimize the ISI effect. The extensive simulation analysis of proposed HICA required to claiming the scalability as well as reliability. In this paper, proposed study on additional performance metrics such as PAPR and computational costs (energy) along with BER and spectral efficiency performances. The result claims that HICA is not improving the PAPR and energy performances significantly.
