- Abstract
In this letter, we investigate time-domain channel estimation for wideband millimeter wave (mmWave) MIMO OFDM system. By transmitting frequency-domain pilot symbols as well as different beamforming vectors, we observe that the time-domain mmWave MIMO channels exhibit channel delay sparsity and especially block sparsity among different spatial directions. Then we propose a time-domain channel estimation exploiting block sparsity (TDCEBS) scheme, which always aims at finding the best nonzero block achieving the largest projection of the residue at each iterations. In particular, we evaluate the system performance using the QuaDRiGa which is recommended by 5G New Radio to generate wideband mmWave MIMO channels. The effectiveness of the proposed TDCEBS scheme is verified by the simulation results, as the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Channel estimation and hybrid precoding are considered for multi-user millimeter wave massive multi-input multi-output system. A deep learning compressed sensing (DLCS) channel estimation scheme is proposed. The channel estimation neural network for the DLCS scheme is trained offline using simulated environments to predict the beamspace channel amplitude. Then the channel is reconstructed based on the obtained indices of dominant beamspace channel entries. A deep learning quantized phase (DLQP) hybrid precoder design method is developed after channel estimation. The training hybrid precoding neural network for the DLQP method is obtained offline considering the approximate phase quantization. Then the deployment hybrid precoding neural network (DHPNN) is obtained by replacing the approximate phase quantization with ideal phase quantization and the output of the DHPNN is the analog precoding vector. Finally, the analog precoding matrix is obtained by stacking the analog precoding vectors and the digital precoding matrix is calculated by zero-forcing. Simulation results demonstrate that the DLCS channel estimation scheme outperforms the existing schemes in terms of the normalized mean-squared error and the spectral efficiency, while the DLQP hybrid precoder design method has better spectral efficiency performance than other methods with low phase shifter resolution.

Different from the existing works, in this paper we investigate the pilot allocation in multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, aiming to maximize the spectral efficiency (SE) subject to the constraint that the number of user equipments (UEs) satisfying the quality of service (QoS) is maximized. Since the considered bilevel optimization problem that is tough to handle, we resort to the greedy algorithms with low computational complexity. We propose a QoS constrained (QC) pilot allocation scheme, which sequentially allocates the pilot sequence having large interference power to the UE with small signal power so that the number of UEs satisfying QoS can be maximized and then the SE can also be maximized. Simulation results show that the propose QC scheme outperforms the conventional scheme and smart pilot allocation (SPA) scheme. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

5. High-Resolution Channel Estimation for Frequency-Selective mmWave Massive MIMO Systems.

- Abstract
In this paper, we develop two high-resolution channel estimation schemes based on the estimating signal parameters via the rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) method for frequency-selective millimeter wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems. The first scheme is based on two-dimensional ESPRIT (TDE), which includes three stages of pilot transmission. This scheme first estimates the angles of arrival (AoA) and angles of departure (AoD) and then pairs the AoA and AoD. The other scheme reduces the pilot transmission from three stages to two stages and therefore reduces the pilot overhead. It is based on one-dimensional ESPRIT and minimum searching (EMS). It first estimates the AoD of each channel path and then searches the minimum from the identified mainlobe. To guarantee the robust channel estimation performance, we also develop a hybrid precoding and combining matrices design method so that the received signal power keeps almost the same for any AoA and AoD. Finally, we demonstrate that the proposed two schemes outperform the existing channel estimation schemes in terms of computational complexity and performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Beam training based on hierarchical codebook for millimeter wave (mmWave) massive MIMO is investigated. Unlike the existing work using the same hierarchical codebook to estimate different multi-path components (MPCs), dynamic hierarchical codebooks which are updated according to the estimated MPCs are adopted. First, a generalized hierarchical codebook design method is proposed. Then based on this method, a beam training method which dynamically updates the hierarchical codebook by removing the contribution of the estimated MPCs from the codebook is proposed. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of our method and show that the proposed method outperforms the existing ones in terms of the success detection rate of beam training.

In this paper, a framework of beamspace channel estimation in millimeter wave massive MIMO system is proposed. The framework includes the design of hybrid precoding and combining matrix as well as the search method for the largest entry of over-sampled beamspace receiving matrix. Then based on the framework, three channel estimation schemes including identity matrix approximation (IA) based scheme, scattered zero off-diagonal (SZO) based scheme and concentrated zero off-diagonal (CZO) based scheme are proposed. These schemes together with the existing channel estimation schemes are compared in terms of computational complexity, estimation error and total time slots for channel training. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes outperform the existing schemes and can approach the performance of the ideal case. In particular, total time slots for channel training can be substantially reduced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Channel estimation for 3-D lens millimeter wave massive MIMO system is investigated. First, the structure of beamspace channel is analyzed to show that the dominant entries of beamspace channel matrix form a dual crossing (DC) shape. Then, a DC-based channel estimation algorithm is proposed to iteratively refine the selection of dominant entries until the stop condition is met. Simulation results show that the DC-based algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms, including orthogonal matching pursuit and adaptive support detection (ASD). At signal-to-noise ratio of 15 dB, the DC-based algorithm has 57.7% improvement in terms of normalized mean squared error compared with ASD while the computational complexity is only half of ASD due to fast computation of least squares estimation.

Existing works design the pilot pattern for sparse channel estimation, assuming that the power of all pilots is equal. However, equal power allocation is not optimal in cognitive radio (CR) systems. In this correspondence, we jointly design the pilot power and pilot pattern for sparse channel estimation in orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexing-based CR systems, based on the rule of mutual incoherence property that minimizes the coherence of the measurement matrix used for the sparse recovery. Under the sum power constraint and peak power constraint, the pilot design is formulated as a joint optimization problem, which is then decoupled into tractable sequential formations. Given a pilot pattern, we formulate the design of pilot power as a second-order cone programming. Then, we propose a joint design algorithm, which includes discrete optimization for pilot pattern and continuous optimization for pilot power. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve better channel estimation performance in terms of mean square error and bit error rate and can further improve the spectrum efficiency by 2.4%, compared with existing algorithms assuming equal pilot power.

In this paper, we consider the pilot design based on the mutual incoherence property (MIP) for sparse channel estimation in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. With respect to the length of channel impulse response (CIR), we first derive a sufficient condition for the optimal pilot pattern generated from the cyclic different set (CDS). Since the CDS does not exist for most practical OFDM systems, we propose three pilot design schemes to obtain a near-optimal pilot pattern. The first two schemes, including stochastic sequential search (SSS) and stochastic parallel search (SPS), are based on the stochastic search. The third scheme called iterative group shrinkage (IGS) employs a tree-based searching structure and removes rows in a group instead of removing a single row at each step. We later extend our work to multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) systems and propose two schemes, i.e., sequential design scheme and joint design scheme. We also combine them to design the multiple orthogonal pilot patterns, i.e., using the sequential scheme for the first several transmit antennas and using the joint scheme to design the pilot pattern for the remaining transmit antennas. Simulation results show that the proposed SSS, SPS, and IGS converge much faster than the cross-entropy optimization and the exhaustive search and are thus more efficient. Moreover, SSS and SPS outperform IGS in terms of channel estimation performance. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

- Abstract
Underwater acoustic (UWA) channel is typically sparse. In this paper, a complex Homotopy algorithm is presented and then applied for UWA OFDM channel estimation. Two enhancements that exploit UWA channel temporal correlation for the compressed-sensing(CS)-based channel estimators are proposed. The first one is based on a first-order Gauss-Markov (GM) model which uses the previous channel estimate to assist current one. The other is to use the recursive least-squares (RLS) algorithm together with the CS algorithms to track the time-varying UWA channel. Simulation results show that the Homotopy algorithm offers faster and more accurate UWA channel estimation performance than other sparse recovery methods, and the proposed enhancements offer further performance improvement.

In this correspondence, sparse channel estimation is first introduced in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based cognitive radio systems. Based on the results of spectrum sensing, the pilot design is studied by minimizing the coherence of the dictionary matrix used for sparse recovery. Then, it is formulated as an optimal column selection problem where a table is generated and the indexes of the selected columns of the table form a pilot pattern. A novel scheme using constrained cross-entropy optimization is proposed to obtain an optimized pilot pattern, where it is modeled as an independent Bernoulli random process. The updating rule for the probability of each active subcarrier selected as a pilot subcarrier is derived. A projection method is proposed so that the number of pilots during the optimization is fixed. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme and show that it can achieve 11.5% improvement in spectrum efficiency with the same channel estimation performance compared with the least squares (LS) channel estimation.

- Abstract
Pilot power allocation is investigated under the framework of physical layer secure communications in time‐division duplex systems, where the secret keys are generated from the estimates of sparse wireless channels. The joint optimisation of secret key capacity and sparse channel estimation performance based on pilot power allocation is formulated as a convex optimisation problem. Considering the fairness between these two sides, a scaling factor is introduced. Then, a scheme is proposed to fast solve the problem by looking up a table and using existing optimisation solvers. Simulation results show that a proper scaling factor can make a trade‐off between the secret key capacity and sparse channel estimation performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Qi, Chenhao and Wu, Lenan
- Abstract
The joint sparsity of uplink channels in massive multi‐input–multi‐output (MIMO) systems is explored and a block sparse model is proposed for joint channel estimation. The block coherence of this model is analysed. It is indicated that as the number of antennas at the base station grows to be infinity, the block coherence will be zero. Then a block optimised orthogonal matching pursuit (BOOMP) algorithm is proposed. Simulation results verify the analysis and show that the joint estimation using the BOOMP algorithm can significantly improve the channel estimation performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
In this letter, we investigate the deterministic pilot allocation for sparse channel estimation in OFDM systems. Based on the rule of minimizing the coherence of the DFT submatrix, we derive that the pilot design according to the cyclic different set (CDS) is optimal. However, the CDS only exists for some specific number of OFDM subcarriers. For those cases where the CDS is unavailable, we propose a scheme using discrete stochastic approximation to obtain a near-optimal pilot pattern. Simulation results demonstrate that our scheme is much faster convergent and more efficient than the exhaustive search; and it has been shown that substantial improvement for channel estimation can be achieved.
