Publication Metadata only Interpolation based pilot-aided channel estimation for STBC spatial modulation and performance analysis under imperfect CSI(INST Engineering Technology-Iet, Michael Faraday House Six Hills Way Stevenage, Hertford Sg1 2Ay, England, 2016-09-20) Doğan, Hakan; Başar, Ertuğrul; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; GÜNTEKİN, BAHAR; 237377; 149116; 10331A combination of space-time block coding and spatial modulation (STBC-SM) has been recently proposed for multiple input-multiple output systems to obtain both spatial diversity gain and more capacity simultaneously while assuming the perfect channel state information (P-CSI) was available at the receiver. However, in practical scenarios the CSI is unknown to the receiver and should be estimated in order to detect the transmitted data in a reliable way. Therefore, channel estimation (CE) is a major challenge in designing the STBC-SM systems. In this study, the problem of CE is investigated and a new pilot-aided channel estimation (PA-CE) technique, coupled with an interpolation, is proposed for the STBC-SM systems operating in the presence of rapidly time-varying mobile channels. Several interpolation schemes such as the linear, nearest neighbour, piecewise cubic Hermite and the low-pass interpolations are applied and their performances are compared to determine the best suitable interpolation technique to be employed in STBC-SM systems. Bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed CE technique is then investigated in time-varying channels with different modulation. Moreover, the pairwise error probability of the STBC-SM scheme is derived and its average bit error probability is evaluated analytically in the presence of CE errors.Publication Embargo Data detection based iterative channel estimation for coded SM-OFDM systems(IEEE, 345 E 47Th St, New York, Ny 10017 USA, 2016) Leblebici, Mehmet Merih; Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 249850; 10331The combination of spatial modulation (SM) and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) as SM-OFDM is a recently proposed efficient modulation scheme with exploiting the index of transmit antenna to convey information bits for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems due to its low complexity feature. The pioneering works assume that the perfect channel state information (P-CSI) or pilot symbols aided channel estimation (PSA-CE) is available at the receiver. The open question is whether the accuracy of pilot based channel estimation is satisfactory to accomplish high data rate transmission in SM-OFDM systems. This paper explores the iterative channel estimation (ICE) problem for the coded SM-OFDM systems. We showed that the quality of the channel estimation can be further enhanced by the detection of symbols at the receiver. Through comparative simulations, we show that the proposed ICE method has notable bit error rate (BER) performance compared with the PSA-CE method for the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation over the typical urban (TU) channel model.Publication Metadata only Channel Estimation for SM Systems over Time-Varying Rayleigh Fading Channels(IEEE, 345 E 47Th St, New York, Ny 10017 Usa, 2014) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 41066; 10331This paper is concerned with the challenging and timely problem of channel estimation for spatial modulated systems in the presence of time varying channels. Recently, estimation of channel state information for SM systems is investigated by the recursive least square (RLS) algorithm for slow fading channels. However, it is clear that the RLS based receiver will have a performance degradation for fast fading channels. Therefore, we developed iterative channel estimation based on detected symbols and curve fitting to track the channel variations for SM systems. Simulation results have demonstrated that the proposed iterative channel estimation offer substantial performance gains over the RLS channel estimation. In particular, a savings of about 4dB is obtained at BER = 10(-7), as compared with RLS based receiver at 150km/h for 2 x 4 single carrier SM systems.Publication Metadata only Spline Based Channel Estimation for STBC-SM Systems over Fast-Varying Rician Fading Channels(IEEE, 345 E 47Th St, New York, Ny 10017 USA, 2015-05-16) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 10331In the STBC-SM systems, the information is carried both by STBC symbols and indices of the transmit antennas from which these symbols are transmitted. Channel estimation is a critical process at the receiver during the coherent detection of the transmitted STBC symbols and indices of the transmit antennas. In this paper, a spline interpolation and pilot symbols based channel estimation has been proposed for the space-time block coded spatial modulation (STBC-SM) systems to track the channel variations in the presence of Rician fading channels. The estimation of channel at pilot durations is done by least squares (LS) method and then the spline based channel interpolation is performed. It has been shown via computer simulations that the proposed spline based channel estimation channel estimation outperforms the piecewise linear interpolation (PLI) and the nearest neighbor interpolation (NNI) based channel estimations.Publication Unknown Pilot symbol assisted channel estimation for 4x4 space time block coded spatial modulation systems(IEEE, 345 E 47th St, New York, Ny 10017 USA, 2015) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 10331Recently, spatial modulation (SM) and space-time block coding (STBC) are combined to take advantage of the benefits of both while avoiding their drawbacks for multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The pioneering works on STBC-SM assume that perfect knowledge of the channel fading coefficients is available at the receiver. This work(1) addresses the challenging and timely problem of channel estimation for 4 x 4 STBC-SM systems in the presence of time-varying channels. In this paper, the estimation of channel at pilot durations is done by least square (LS) method and then the channel interpolation is performed by linear interpolation or nearest neighbor interpolation algorithms. Simulation results have demonstrated that the proposed channel estimation based on the linear interpolation offer substantial performance gains over the channel estimation based on the nearest neighbor interpolation. In particular, a savings of about 5dB is obtained at BER = 10(-5), as compared with the nearest interpolation based receiver at 120km/h for 4 x 4 STBC-SM systems with the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation.Publication Metadata only Iterative Channel Estimation For Spatial Modulation Systems Over Fast Fading Channels(IEEE, 345 E 47Th St, New York, Ny 10017 Usa, 2014) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 41066; 10331Spatial Modulation (SM) based on the use of antenna indices to transmit information in addition to the conventional signal constellations has been recently proposed to solve practical problems encountered in MIMO systems. In the literature, estimation of CSI for SM systems is simply investigated by RLS for slow fading channels. However, iterative receivers that offer significant performance gains over a non- iterative when the total number of pilot is not sufficient and the channel is fast fading have not been investigated for SM based systems. In this paper, it shown that the RLS based receiver has a performance degradation for fast fading channels and a new iterative channel estimation techniques is proposed with the necessary signal model to enhance receiver performance for fast fading channels. Computer simulation results indicate that proposed iterative receiver has a significant performance advantage over the RLS based receiver for time-varying Rayleigh channels.Publication Metadata only Channel estimation for spatial modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems(IEEE, 345 E 47th St, New York, Ny 10017 USA, 2015-10-14) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 10331A combination of spatial modulation and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SM-OFDM) has been recently proposed for multicarrier systems while assuming the perfect channel state information (P-CSI) available at the receiver. But, in practical scenarios, the estimation of CSI is crucial in order to detect the transmitted data coherently. In this work(1), a new frame structure and pilot symbol aided channel estimation (PSA-CE) technique with a piecewise linear interpolation is proposed for the SM-OFDM systems operating in the presence of frequency selective channel. Bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed channel estimation technique is then investigated with different channel models such as Typical Urban ( TU) and Rural Urban (RU) for 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). In particular, it is shown that the performance with estimated channel came close to that with known channel within 2.3 dB in SNR for BER = 10(-4) for TU channels.Publication Metadata only Pilot symbol aided channel estimation for spatial modulation-OFDM systems and its performance analysis with different types of interpolations(Springer, 233 Spring St, New York, Ny 10013 USA, 2017-06) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 10331Spatial modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SM-OFDM) system has been recently proposed as an alternative for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-OFDM systems to increase spectral efficiency by keeping a low-complexity implementation. In the literature, SM-OFDM systems assume a perfect channel state information (P-CSI) available at the receiver for coherent detection and the channel estimation problem is not considered. It is clear that the channel estimation is a critical issue on the performance of SM-OFDM systems. In this paper, a frame structure where pilot symbols are typically interspersed with data symbols among the sub-carriers to aid the channel estimation is considered. Then the pilot symbol aided channel estimation (PSA-CE) technique with different interpolations is proposed for the SM-OFDM systems. It is shown that in the proposed PSA-CE, equidistantly spaced pilot symbols allow to reconstruct the channel response by means of interpolation if the spacing of the pilots is sufficiently close to satisfy the sampling theorem. Linear, nearest neighbor, piecewise cubic Hermite and the low-pass interpolations are investigated to explore trade-off between complexity and performances. We show that the low pass interpolator yields better performance than the other interpolation techniques for selected cases such as higher order modulations. The results validate the potential of the proposed PSA-CE estimation applying to SM-OFDM systems.Publication Metadata only On channel estimation for spatial modulated systems over time-varying channels(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 525 B St, Ste 1900, San Diego, Ca 92101-4495 USA, 2015-02) Doğan, Hakan; Panayırcı, Erdal; ACAR, YUSUF; 237377; 10331Spatial Modulation (SM) has been proposed recently for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to cope with the interchannel interference and to reduce the detection complexity as compared to the conventional MIMO systems. In SM system, the data symbols are transmitted by a randomly selected active antenna of a MIMO transmitter to the receiver through a wireless channel. The information is carried both by the data symbol from any signal constellation such as M-ary phase shift keying (M-PSK) or M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM), by the index of the selected antenna. The channel estimation is a critical process at the receiver during the coherent detection of the transmitted symbol and the antenna index, randomly selected. Recently, the channel estimation of channel for SM systems has been investigated by the recursive least square (RLS) algorithm for only quasi-static fading channels. In this paper, a novel channel estimation is proposed for SM systems in the presence of rapidly time-varying channels. The Bayesian mean square error (MSE) bound has been derived as a benchmark and the performance of the proposed approaches is studied in terms of MSE and bit-error rate (BER). Computer simulation results have confirmed that the proposed iterative channel estimation technique has significant BER/MSE performance advantages compared with existing channel estimation algorithm proposed earlier in the literature.
