Description

Channel estimation and equalization method of OFDM system
Technical Field
The invention relates to a channel estimation and equalization technology of a receiving end of a communication system, in particular to a channel estimation and equalization method of an OFDM system.
Background
Although some channels of the wired communication system, such as optical fiber communication, etc., are constant parameter channels, the channels are generally multipath, so that intersymbol interference generated between symbols in digital communication needs to be equalized, in single carrier communication, along with the increase of multipath expansion, the number of taps of a required transversal filter is significantly increased, and the complexity of equalization is improved. Orthogonal multi-carrier (OFDM) communication, with the addition of a cyclic prefix of appropriate length, makes equalization simple. Equalization requires an estimate of the channel, whether for single carrier or multi-carrier communication. For an OFDM system, if it is a constant reference channel, it is conventional to use only one OFDM symbol as a pilot, then use the pilot to perform channel estimation, and use the channel estimation value to equalize all subsequent data symbols. This approach does not consider that the data symbols also contain channel information, which reduces the estimation accuracy to some extent, resulting in a higher error rate after equalization. Therefore, if the channel information contained in the data symbols can be fully utilized, the estimation accuracy can be effectively improved, and the error rate after equalization can be reduced.

step S2, the transmitting end groups the transmitted sequence according to a preset rule, and the used pilot frequency is marked as X1= [ X1 ]1,X12,…,X1M];
Step S3, the receiving end respectively processes the cyclic prefix removal and Fourier transform to all OFDM time domain symbols to obtain all OFDM frequency domain symbols; then, the symbol sequences after the fourier transform are grouped by a group of N OFDM frequency domain symbols, and for each group, the first OFDM frequency domain symbol of the group is taken and recorded as Y1= [ Y1 ]1,Y12,…,Y1M]And using X1 of the same group of transmitting terminals to obtain H1= Y1./X1;
and step S4, for each group, starting from the second OFDM frequency domain symbol, calculating the channel frequency response estimated value of each symbol in turn, and balancing until all the symbols in the group are processed.
Further, the preset rule is specifically as follows: n OFDM frequency domain symbols are used as a group, one OFDM frequency domain symbol is M in length, pilot frequency is inserted into the position of the first OFDM frequency domain symbol of each group, and data is not transmitted.
Further, the step S4 is specifically to calculate a channel frequency response estimated value H2 of the current OFDM symbol, combine the channel frequency response estimated value H2 with a channel frequency response estimated value H1 of the previous symbol according to a preset ratio, record the result as H2_ new, equalize the current symbol with H2_ new, then replace the original H1 with H2_ new, then use the next OFDM symbol as the current OFDM symbol, and loop until all OFDM symbols in the packet complete channel estimation and equalization.
Further, the loop process is performed until all OFDM symbols in the packet complete channel estimation and equalization, specifically:
step S41: let i = 2;
