A sparse EM algorithm for blind and semi-blind identification of doubly selective OFDM channels

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

In recent years many sparse estimation methods, also known as compressed sensing, have been developed for channel identification problems in digital communications. However, all these methods presume the transmitted sequence of symbols to be known at the receiver, i.e. in form of a training sequence. We consider blind identification of the channel based on maximum likelihood (ML) estimation via the EM algorithm incorporating a sparsity constraint in the maximization step. We apply this algorithm to an OFDM transmission over a doubly-selective multipath channel with strong Doppler and delay spread.
