Blind Channel Identification in (2 ×1) Alamouti Coded Systems Based on Maximizing the Eigenvalue Spread of Cumulant Matrices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Channel estimation in the (2×1) Alamouti space-time block coded systems can be performed blindly from the eigendecomposition (or diagonalization) of matrices composed of the receive antenna output 4th-order cumulants. In order to estimate the channel, we will propose to choose the cumulant matrix with maximum eigenvalue spread of cumulant-matrix. This matrix is determined in closed form. Simulation results show that the novel blind channel identification technique presents a satisfactory performance and low complexity.

Blind channel estimation based on maximizing the eigenvalue spread of cumulant matrices in (2 × 1) Alamouti's coding schemes
The popular Alamouti orthogonal space time code attains full transmit diversity in multiple antenna systems. This paper addresses the problem of blind channel identification in (2 × 1) Alamouti coded systems. Under the assumption of independent symbol substreams, the channel can be estimated from the eigendecomposition of matrices composed of secondor higher-order statistics (cumulants) of the ...
متن کاملChannel Estimation for O-STBC MISO Systems Using Fourth-Order Cross-Cumulants
This paper proposes several algorithms to recover the transmitted signals in systems with multiple antennas that make use of orthogonal space time block code (O-STBC) to attain full transmit diversity. We interpret the scheme proposed by Alamouti in [1] and half-rate systems presented in [2] as classic blind source separation (BSS) problems where the received signals (observations) are instanta...

This paper focuses on blind channel estimation in Alamouti coded systems with one receiving antenna working in indoor scenarios where the flat fading assumption is reasonable. A comparative study of several channel estimation techniques in both simulated and realistic scenarios is presented. The tested methods exploit the orthogonality property of the Alamouti coded channel matrix, and are base...

This work is based on a study of blind source separation techniques in order to estimate coefficients in transmission systems using Alamouti codification with two transmit antennas and one receive antenna. Most of present standards include pilot symbols to estimate the channel in reception. Since these symbols do not deliver user's data, their use decrease transferring quantity and also the sys...
متن کاملEigendecomposition of self-tuned cumulant-matrices for blind source separation
Existing algorithms for blind source separation are often based on the eigendecomposition of fourth-order cumulant matrices. However, when the cumulant matrices have close eigenvalues, their eigenvectors are very sensitive to errors in the estimation of the matrices. In this paper, we show how to produce a cumulant matrix that has a well-separated extremal eigenvalue. The corresponding eigenvec...
