    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; 10331
    This 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.

    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; 10331
    In 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.

    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; 10331
    Recently, 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.

    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; 10331
    Spatial 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.
