Time Domain Replica Signal Based Interference Compensation for SP-MIMO/OF DM with Large Delay Spread Channel

摘要

In mobile communications, MIMO-OFDM transmission performance suffers severe degradation caused by the large delay spread channel greater than guard interval (GI). This is because the excess delay results in considerable inter-symbol interference (ISl) between adjacent symbols and inter-carrier-interference (ICI) among subcarrier in the same symbol. In case of scattered pilot (SP), the interference of pilot signals causes the deterioration of channel estimation. To mitigate this problem, in this paper, we propose the interference compensation scheme using the time domain replica signals. We make the time domain replica signals from detected signals and the excess channel impulse responses over GI. After compensation of the time domain replica signals and the received signals, we recalculate the channel state information (CSI) and the CSI is updated. Finally, we carry out the channel compensation with updated CSI for obtaining accurate compensated signals.
