Description

A kind of channel estimation methods of the SIM-OFDM based on pilot tone
Technical field
The invention belongs to Communication Anti-Jamming Techniques field, and in particular to a kind of channel estimation of the SIM-OFDM based on pilot tone Method
Background technology
OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technology is a kind of radio communication High speed transmission technology, its general principle are that the data flow of high speed is resolved into the sub-data flow of many low rates, i.e., by signal point Into many orthogonal subcarriers, it is transmitted simultaneously using these mutually orthogonal subcarriers.The technology utilizes subcarrier logarithm According to being modulated, the pulse width of symbol is extended, intersymbol interference (Inter-Symbol can be reasonably resistant to Interference, ISI), improve the performance to anti-multipath fading.Compared with conventional frequency division is multiplexed (FDM), OFDM need not Special guard band.It is mutually orthogonal between each carrier wave although having overlapping between frequency spectrum.It is former according to orthogonality Reason is understood, is that interference is not present between each carrier wave, so as to substantially increase the utilization rate of frequency spectrum.
Recently, a kind of new multi-carrier communication mode --- modulate (Subcarrier Index based on sub-carrier indices Modulation, SIM) ofdm system be suggested.For SIM-OFDM systems, except add SIM modulation modules with Outside, other the step of and traditional ofdm system do not have any difference.Wherein, most crucial SIM modulation modules employ son The thought of carrier wave piecemeal.Whole multicarrier is continuously divided into the multiple sub-blocks of size identical first, passes through rope in each sub-block Draw bit to select wherein several subcarriers (referred to as activating subcarrier) to send data, and remaining subcarrier is not sent Data (are referred to as silent subcarriers).Because index bit is not sent in itself, but lie in the position letter of activation subcarrier In breath, so index bit and being not take up frequency spectrum resource.In receiving terminal, rope is obtained with by the position for activating subcarrier Draw the information of bit.
Existing SIM-OFDM has many advantages, such as compared with traditional ofdm communication method, such as SIM-OFDM systems Papr is smaller, confrontation inter-sub-carrier interference performance is more preferable, the bit error rate is more low, by selecting different power point Transmitter energy can also be saved with strategy.Shortcoming is due to employ the mode of piecemeal, and SIM-OFDM systems are without image of Buddha OFDM It is the same in system, pilot tone is simply inserted on fixed position to complete channel estimation.In SIM-OFDM systems, if each Fixed position insertion pilot tone in block, can produce the problem of wasting frequency spectrum resource, lose the advantage of itself again.
The content of the invention
The present invention is directed to the technical problem of existing SIM-OFDM communication means channel estimation performance difficulty, it is proposed that Yi Zhong Low energy pilot frequency sequence is inserted on silent subcarriers to complete the method for channel estimation.So that SIM-OFDM systems were both remained The advantage of system itself, channel estimation can be used a pilot for again.
The SIM-OFDM based on pilot tone of present invention channel estimation methods comprise the following steps:

Step 2-3:Second of pilot frequency locations judges.The channel estimation value obtained using step 2-2Frequency domain is received and believed Number Y carries out equilibrium treatment and is equalized signalEqualization methods include but are not limited to brokenly zero balanced (ZF), linear least mean-square Error balance (LMMSE) etc..Equally, to equalizing signalPiecemeal is carried out using with transmitting terminal identical mode, obtains g=N/n Individual sub-block, contain n subcarrier in each block.After piecemeal, each sub-block is detected.Detection method is:Each sub-block Equalizing signal on middle n subcarrierData pilot data P corresponding with current sub-blockiCarry out Euclidean distance djComparison:Wherein i represent i-th of sub-block, j represent i-th of sub-block in j-th of subcarrier, it is believed that it is European away from From djN-k minimum sub-carrier positions are sub-carrier positions where the pilot data of current sub-block, that is, search Euclidean distance most Small n-k sub-carrier positions are simultaneously designated as the pilot frequency locations l ' of current sub-blocki(subscript i is sub-block identifier), by g pilot bit Put l 'iForm pilot frequency locations set L2, based on pilot frequency locations set L2Obtain frequency-domain received signal Yp2
Step 2-4:Update channel estimation.By frequency-domain received signal Yp2, the obtained pilot bit of pilot data P and step 2-3 Put set L2Carry out channel estimation, the channel estimation value after being updatedChannel estimation methods include but are not limited to ZF, LMMSE etc..
In summary, by adopting the above-described technical solution, the beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:In existing SIM-OFDM systems On the basis of, low energy is inserted on silent subcarriers (by setting the transmit power of silent subcarriers to be more than activation subcarrier Transmit power realize) pilot frequency sequence completes the method for channel estimation, i.e. transmitting terminal inserts low energy on silent subcarriers Pilot frequency sequence is measured, is detected the position where pilot tone by special detection method in receiving terminal, and combine reception signal And pilot frequency sequence completes channel estimation.The advantage of this method is both to remain the advantage of SIM-OFDM systems in itself, again may be used To use a pilot for channel estimation, foundation is provided for final detection algorithm.
