A MMSE Channel Estimation Method in QC-LDPC Coded OFDM Systems

Abstract:

An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is one of the effective techniques used in wireless communications. In OFDM systems, channel impairments due to multipath dispersive wireless channels can cause deep fades in wireless channels. The OFDM receiver also requires an accurate and computationally efficient channel state information when coherent detection is involved. Therefore, it needs a good robust estimation method of the channel in wireless communication for OFDM systems. And one of these channel estimation methods is minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation. MMSE channel estimation one most used method in OFDM systems. In this work we enhanced robustness of MMSE channel estimation by using it in base of quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) coded OFDM system.
