- An electromagnetic signal transmitted in a mobile environment is scattered by objects in the environment.
- the receiver 104 which may also possess a certain velocity relative to the transmitter 100, receives the superimposition of delayed and frequency-shifted versions of the transmitted signal caused by reflections from the objects.
- Each of these versions of the transmitted signal is referred to as a multipath component, a multipath tap, a channel tap, and/or a tap and is represented by P in the equations herein..
- This type of channel 102 is commonly referred to as a multipath channel.

- Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is a transmission strategy specifically designed to combat frequency-selective channels with relatively low receiver complexity.
- the signal bandwidth is divided into several non-overlapping (hence orthogonal) narrowband subcarriers, such that each subchannel is frequency non-selective.
- Figure 2 shows an example of an environment with an inflector 200 inducing a two path channel between the transmitter 100 and receiver 104, where:

- the inflected path via inflector 200 corresponds to channel tap A 2 702 at delay h.
- hi 702 has lower power relative to tap h ⁇ 700 due to increased propagation loss (as the inflected path is longer than the direct path) and attenuation at the point of inflection 200.
- the instantaneous phase, and rate of change of phase, of taps h ⁇ 700 and i 2 702 may also differ.

For example, the receiver 104 may also make the transmitted data available to other components of a communication system.

- a frequency-domain channel estimator 1 10 that provides an initial channel estimate 112 in the frequency domain as the channel varies over the duration of a packet.
- the frequency domain channel estimator 1 10 is shown as a separate functional module to the receiver 104, but in practice the channel estimator 110 may be a component of the receiver 104.
- the frequency-domain channel estimate 112 is provided to a time-domain channel modeller 1 14 that estimates time domain parameters including the delay, complex gain and Doppler for each multipath tap.
- time-domain channel modeller 1 14 estimates time domain parameters including the delay, complex gain and Doppler for each multipath tap. The methods used in the time-domain channel modeller are described in more detail below.
- the time-domain channel modeller 114 may be a functional module incorporated in the receiver 104.
- the modeller 1 14 may be implemented as a separate unit in data communication with the receiver 104.

- ASICs application-specific integrated circuits
- Other hardware implementations include, but are not limited to, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), structured ASICs, digital signal processors and discrete logic.
- the functional modules may be implemented as software, such as one or more application programs executable within a computer system.
- the software may be stored in a computer-readable medium and be loaded into a computer system from the computer readable medium for execution by the computer system.
- a computer readable medium having a computer program recorded on it is a computer program product. Examples of such media include, but are not limited to CD- ROMs, hard disk drives, a ROM or integrated circuit.
- Program code may also be transmitted via computer-readable transmission media, for example a radio transmission channel or a networked connection to another computer or networked device.
- the methods used in the modeller 1 14 use the system model described in the following section.
- An ambiguity function for the transmitted signal x(t) is defined as: r( T . folk) .r(/ )., * (/ - ⁇ )(- ⁇ 3 ⁇ 4, "( ⁇ . (5)
- the ambiguity function can be written s follows.
- a v (r.i>) [ v ⁇ t)u > '(t- r)e- J2 ""dt (7) is the ambiguity function of w(t ).
- w(( ) is usually designed such that A w ⁇ r. ) 3 ⁇ 4 0 for
- the sin/sin terms will introduce sidelobes, which are de-coupled in time and frequency.
- (1 1 ) becomes.
- Figure 5B shows the ambiguity function when the number of symbols, L, is increased to 242. It may be 11000782
- the OFDM signal of (1) is filtered and upconverted in transmitter 100 , transmitted through multipath channel 102, down-converted and receive filtered in receiver 104. Assuming the up/down conversion process is done perfectly, the received continuous- time baseband signal may be written as:
- the Fourier transform of convolution in (14) is the same as the multiplication of the constituent Fourier transform, i.e.
- G(f) has a bandwidth that exceeds the bandwidth of the signal, i.e. K/T.
- ⁇ V(f) has a bandwidth of approximately ⁇ jT d .
- G'(/ + k/T)— I, -Fs/2 - k/T ⁇ f ⁇ Ff/2 - k/T and zero otherwise, e.g. y ⁇ t) siiicfTrti 7 ,).
- F a > K/T is the bandwidth of the filter.
- the receiver performs the matched filter to the transmitted sinusoids (less the cyclic prefix),
- the receiver 104 has perfect knowledge of the transmitted symbols X/ . This may, for example, result from the use of pilot symbols or the feedback of correct decoder decisions in the receiver. As a result, we may assume the modeller 114 has perfect knowledge of the channel gains H t y.
- Equation (27) is simply the superimposition of 2-dimensional exponential signals.
- Two estimation algorithms are described below: the first is based on a conventional correlator approach; the second is based on a matching pursuit or basis pursuit algorithm which takes advantage of the sparse nature of the channel taps.
- Method 600 is based on a correlator approach and may for example be implemented as software instructions running on the modeller 114.
- the input is the frequency domain channel estimate 112.
- step 602 an initial delay search window and initial Doppler search window are defined.
- step 604 a grid-based approach is used to divide the ( ⁇ , ⁇ ) plane into bins.
- An iterative sequence follows.
- G and S matrices (associated with the delay and Doppler effects respectively) are constructed as described in more detail below with reference to equations (30) to (32).
- step 608 a correlator output metric is determined using equation (32).
- step 610 the channel modeller identifies the P largest peaks in the correlator metric. Let ⁇ be a noisy estimate obtained from Y given knowledge of X, i.e.
- H H + Z.
- the estimator picks the P largest peaks. Note that there is some similarity between (32) and the 2D DFT. Complexity reduction may be possible in computing (32) by taking advantage of die fast Fourier transform (FFT).
- FFT die fast Fourier transform
- correlator estimator performance of method 600 is affected by sidelobes of the ambiguity function, which may cause false and miss detections.
- method 600 has relatively low complexity, it may suffer from missed and false channel detection due to the sidelobes in the ambiguity function.
- LOS line of sight
- H is the sum of a sparse number of points. This suggests that the use of sparse estimation techniques may be beneficial in terms of reducing complexity with relatively low loss in performance.
- One approach is method 630 shown in Figure 6B. This uses an orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm to provide an iterative algorithm that 10 successively removes previously-estimated multipath components from the original channel estimates as they are detected, A basis pursuit algorithm can also be used in the iterative process of removing previously-estimated multipath components.
- Method 630 takes advantage of the simplified signal derivations given above in equations (1) to (25) and allows the detection of components that would otherwise be hidden by erroneous sidelobes.
- the p x p matrix R p is also computed recursively, where r is a 1 x p— 1 row vector whose nth element, n— ⁇ p— 1, is given by
- Method 630 beginsing in step 632, performs an iteration over detected multipath components p, up to a maximum value of P mwt .
- a correlation metric is calculated to provide an estimate of the delay and Doppler in step 634 (see point 4. of algorithm 1). This may be determined using the 2-dimensional bisection approach described below in algorithm 3.
- step 636 the time-domain channel modeller 1 14 constructs an R matrix and w vector for a least squares optimisation on the current multipath component p (see points 5. to 9. of algorithm 1).
- step 638 the modeller 1 14 determines the estimate for the complex gain of the current multipath component p using the constructed R and w.
- step 640 the detected multipath component is removed from the residual signal.
- Method 650 of Figure 6C may be used to refine a set of estimated multipath components by removing all previously estimated multipath components except for a component of interest.
- the input to method 650 is a set of p multipath estimates, for example a set of estimates 652 generated by the modeller 114 using method 630.
- step 654 a first iteration is commenced that continues while the criterion set out in point 5 of algorithm .2 below is satisfied. For each of these outer iterations, a further set of iterations commences in step 656, stepping through each of the multipath component estimates in the set p.
- step 658 all multipath components are removed except for the component of current interest.
- the correlation approach is used to refine the delay and Doppler estimates for the component of current interest.
- a least-squares optimisation refines the estimate of the complex gain for the component of current interest in step 662.
- Process flow returns to step 656 to step through the remaining estimates.
- Algorithm 2 Estimate refinement algorithm.
- I- Set ⁇ , ii - S(i>)diag(o)G( ).
- the time domain channel modeller 114 may use the 2-D bisection approach as described in algorithm 3 below.
- algorithm 3 has a complexity of ML(N+K) complex multiply-accumulates per iteration.
- the complexity of line 14 may be reduced by exploiting the radix-2 algorithm.
- Figure 8 shows the results of a simulation for the 3-tap estimation. Again, the dashed lines show the CRLB. The solid lines with squares indicate the performance of algorithm 1 only. Solid lines with circles show the performance of algorithm 1 followed by an application of the refinement algorithm 2 after 20 iterations. It can be seen that the refinement provides a noticeable improvement in accuracy.
- RMS error statistics were only collected when all taps are detected, i.e. each tap is closest (in Euclidean distance) to a single estimate. It is possible for a particular tap to be closest to two or more estimated taps. These events are counted as miss-detections, but are not included in the RMS error statistics.
- vee(M ) denotes the vectorize operation, i.e. stacking the columns of the matrix
- p is the KL x p matrix
