    Maximum likelihood blind channel estimation for space-time coding systems
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2002-05) Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal; Çekli, Erdinç
    Sophisticated signal processing techniques have to be developed for capacity enhancement of future wireless communication systems, In recent years, space-time coding is proposed to provide significant capacity gains over the traditional communication systems in fading wireless channels. Space-time codes are obtained by combining channel coding, modulation, transmit diversity, and optional receive diversity in order to provide diversity at the receiver and coding gain without sacrificing the bandwidth. In this paper, we consider the problem of blind estimation of space-time coded signals along with the channel parameters. Both conditional and unconditional maximum likelihood approaches are developed and iterative solutions are proposed. The conditional maximum likelihood algorithm is based on iterative least squares with projection whereas the unconditional maximum likelihood approach is developed by means of finite state Markov process modelling. The performance analysis issues of the proposed methods are studied. Finally, some simulation results are presented.

    Jointly optimal chunk and power allocation in uplink SC-FDMA
    (IEEE, 2013) Mert, Teoman; Kaya, Onur; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    For a single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) system, we obtain the jointly optimal power and chunk allocation policies which maximize the sum rate. Our solution is applicable to both localized and interleaved subcarrier mapping schemes. We solve the joint optimization problem by sequentially solving two sub-problems: power allocation and chunk allocation. Primarily, we use an optimal power allocation algorithm, which we derive from Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions; and then we convert the optimum chunk assignment problem into a maximum weighted matching problem on a bipartite graph, and hence solve it in polynomial time. We also propose two greedy chunk allocation algorithms with lower complexity, and demonstrate that these algorithms produce near optimal results, especially for interleaved subcarrier mapping, when used in conjunction with optimal power control.

    A sequential Monte Carlo method for blind phase noise estimation and data detection
    (IEEE, 2005) Panayırcı, Erdal; Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Moeneclaey, Marc
    In this paper, a computationally efficient algorithm is presented for blind phase noise estimation and data detection jointly, based on a sequential Monte Carlo method. The basic idea is to treat the transmitted symbols as " missing data" and draw samples sequentially of them based on the observed signal samples up to time t. This way, the Bayesian estimates of the phase noise and the incoming data are obtained through these samples, sequentially drawn, together with their importance weights. The proposed receiver structure is seen to be ideally suited for high-speed parallel implementation using VLSI technology.

    Iterative channel estimation approach for space-time/frequency coded OFDM systems with transmitter diversity
    (Assoc Elettrotecnica Ed Elettronica Italiana, 2004-06) Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal; Doğan, Hakan
    Focusing on transmit diversity orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission through frequency selective channels, this paper pursues novel iterative channel estimation approaches for both space-frequency OFDM (SF-OFDM) and space-time OFDM (ST-OFDM) systems. Relying on the unifying signal model for SF-OFDM and ST-OFDM transmitter diversity systems, we develop computationally efficient, maximum a posteriori (MAP) channel estimation algorithms according to the MAP criterion. The algorithms require a convenient representation of the discrete multipath fading channel based on the Karhunen-Loeve (KL) orthogonal expansion and estimates the complex channel parameters of each subcarriers iteratively using the expectation-maximisation (EM) method. In order to explore the performance, the closed-form expression for the average symbol error rate (SER) probability is derived for the maximum ratio combiner (MRC). Furthermore, to benchmark performance of the MAP channel estimator, the modified Cramer-Rao bound of channel estimates is also derived. Finally, we provide simulation results studying the influence of delay spread, propagation parameters and modelling mismatch on the performance of channel estimation techniques. Simulation results confirm our theoretical analysis and illustrate that the proposed algorithms are capable of tracking fast fading and improving overall performance.

    Channel estimation for space-time block coded OFDM systems in the presence of multipath fading
    (IEEE, 2002) Panayırcı, Erdal; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    In this paper, a computationally efficient, non-data-aided maximum a posterlori(MAP) channel estimation algorithm is proposed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with transmitter diversity using space-time block coding. The Alamouti's transmit diversity scheme with two transmit antennas is employed here and generalized for OFDM systems. The algorithm requires a convenient representation of the discrete multipath fading channel based on the Karhunen-Loeve orthogonal expansion and estimates the complex channel parameters of each subcarriers iteratively using the Expectation Maximization(EM) method, which converges to the true MAP estimation of the unknown channel. Ananalytical expression is derived for the Modified Cramer-Rao. lower bound of the proposed MAP channel estimator. The performance is presented in terms of the mean-square error for a system employing QPS signaling.

    A low-complexity KL expansion-based channel estimator for OFDM systems
    (Springer International Publishing, 2005-04-05) Şenol, Habib; Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal
    This paper first proposes a computationally efficient, pilot-aided linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) batch channel estimation algorithm for OFDM systems in unknown wireless fading channels. The proposed approach employs a convenient representation of the discrete multipath fading channel based on the Karhunen-Loeve (KL) orthogonal expansion and finds MMSE estimates of the uncorrelated KL series expansion coefficients. Based on such an expansion, no matrix inversion is required in the proposed MMSE estimator. Moreover, optimal rank reduction is achieved by exploiting the optimal truncation property of the KL expansion resulting in a smaller computational load on the estimation algorithm. The performance of the proposed approach is studied through analytical and experimental results. We then consider the stochastic Cramér-Rao bound and derive the closed-form expression for the random KL coefficients and consequently exploit the performance of the MMSE channel estimator based on the evaluation of minimum Bayesian MSE. We also analyze the effect of a modelling mismatch on the estimator performance. To further reduce the complexity, we extend the batch linear MMSE to the sequential linear MMSE estimator. With the fast convergence property and the simple structure, the sequential linear MMSE estimator provides an attractive alternative to the implementation of channel estimator.

    Linear expansions for frequency selective channels in OFDM
    (Elsevier GMBH, 2006) Şenol, Habib; Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal
    Modeling the frequency selective fading channels as random processes, we employ a linear expansion based on the Karhumen-Loeve (KL) series representation involving a complete set of orthogonal deterministic vectors with a corresponding uncorrelated random coefficients. Focusing on OFDM transmissions through frequency selective fading, this paper pursues a computationally efficient, pilot-aided linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) uncorrelated KL series expansion coefficients estimation algorithm. Based on such an expansion, no matrix inversion is required in the proposed MMSE estimator. Moreover, truncation in the linear expansion of channel is achieved by exploiting the optimal truncation property of the KL expansion resulting in a smaller computational load on the estimation algorithm. The performance of the proposed approach is studied through analytical and experimental results. We first exploit the performance of the MMSE channel estimator based on the evaluation of minimum Bayesian MSE. We also provide performance analysis results studying the influence of the effect of SNR and correlation mismatch on the estimator performance. Simulation results confirm our theoretical results and illustrate that the proposed algorithm is capable of tracking fast fading and improving performance.
