Abstract:

Traditional channel equation methods are based on the multi-path richness hypothesis, which is complicated and inefficient in sparse channels. In this paper, a sparse multi-path channel equation method is proposed. The sparse channel estimation is carried out using a small number of pilot tones based on Compressed Sensing (CS). The equation inverse filter is derived from the channel estimation. The procession of inverse filter solution is modeled as an optimization problem and a greedy algorithm is proposed which can bring about a near optimal solution. The new algorithm requires fewer iterations than linear prediction and gets almost optimal filter parameters when the rank is high enough. The modularized structure of the greedy algorithm is designed which is less complicated and can be easily realized. Simulation shows that the BER performance of the proposed equation method is improved significantly with the increase of SNRs. At 15dB of the SNR it gains 10dB in power efficiency relative to LMS.
