Adaptive Prediction of Channels with Sparse Features in OFDM Systems

A time domain channel prediction method exploiting features of sparse channel is proposed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed predictor operates in the time domain on each channel tap and separates the negligible taps from significant channel taps before perfo...

Description
Summary:A time domain channel prediction method exploiting features of sparse channel is proposed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed predictor operates in the time domain on each channel tap and separates the negligible taps from significant channel taps before performing prediction. We also compare the proposed prediction method with the classical frequency domain method realized at each OFDM subcarrier and demonstrate that our method increases the prediction accuracy and reduces the computational complexity. Simulations on the physical channel model verify the performance of the proposed method.
