Direct and EM-based map sequence estimation with unknown time-varying channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we address sequence estimation when the InterSymbol Interference (ISI) communication channel is unknown and time varying. We employ a Maximum A Posterior (MAP) approach, in which the unknown channel parameters are assigned a distribution and integrated out. For several channel models of interest we describe both the exact MAP estimator and Viterbi algorithm based implementations. We also present EM algorithms for solving these MAP sequence estimation problems, and we contrast these EM solutions with direct MAP algorithms.

EM Algorithm for Sequence Estimation over Gauss-Markov ISI Channels
| This paper presents a new algorithm, based on an EM (Expectation-Maximization) formulation, for ML (maximum likelihood) sequence estimation over unknown ISI (inter-symbol interference) channels with random channel coeecients which have a Gauss-Markov fast time-varying distribution. By using the EM formulation to marginalize over the channel coeecient distribution, maximum-likelihood estimates...

| In this paper we rst describe a Maximum A Posterior (MAP) based sequence estimation approach for unknown, fast fading, frequency selective digital communications channels. The approach incorporates prior probabilistic knowledge of the channel via a stochastic channel model. We then assume a rst order Gauss-Markov channel model to derive a speciic MAP estimator, and we describe a Per Survivor ...

This paper addresses the joint path delay and time-varying complex gain estimation for continuous phase modulation (CPM), over a time-selective slowly varying Rayleigh flat fading channel. We propose two estimation methods: an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for path delay estimation in a Kalman framework, and a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) method for joint path delay and complex gain est...
متن کاملDS-CDMA system with joint channel estimation and MAP detection in time-selective fading channels
In this paper, maximum a posteriori (MAP) detection is applied to a direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) system jointly with identification and estimation of time-selective fading channels. By sampling the outputs of the matched filter and combining antenna array elements, strong and time-varying multiple-access interference (MAI) is characterized and suppressed instantaneous...
