Abstract
A transmission scheme of orthogonally multiplexing pilots in frequency domain with single carrier data signal is proposed in this paper. In this scheme, information-bearing data symbols are modulated in time domain using a simple precode linear transformation, and multiplexed with pilot symbols in frequency domain. The proposed single carrier transmitter has lower complexity and the transmitted signal has lower peak to average power ratio (PAPR) than that of OFDM. In addition, same channel estimation algorithms for OFDM can be applied to the proposed single carrier transmission system due to the similar orthogonal multiplexing of pilot and data symbols in frequency domain. Equalizers based on MMSE and zero-forcing criteria are also presented. Receiver performance is analyzed and compared with OFDM using numerical examples.
