Problems solved by technology

In the mmWave MIMO system, channel estimation faces many challenges, such as the large mmWave path loss, resulting in a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the receiving end, and the introduction of large-scale antennas greatly increases the unknown channel parameters in the spatial dimension. Considering Due to the limitation of energy consumption and cost, millimeter wave systems often use hybrid precoding schemes, which makes traditional channel estimation methods unable to be effectively implemented
For time-varying mmWave channels, channel estimation faces greater challenges

Abstract

The invention discloses a time-varying channel estimation method for a millimeter wave multi-user MIMO system. Based on the sparse characteristics of a millimeter wave channel in an angle domain, a channel estimation method based on compressed sensing is adopted. The method comprises the following steps: (1) modeling a time-varying millimeter wave channel; (2) quantitatively expressing the millimeter wave channel; (3) modeling a time-varying millimeter wave channel estimation problem as a compressed sensing mode; (4) recovering the estimated number of paths, angles of arrival and angles of departure by using a modified block orthogonal matching pursuit (R-BOMP) algorithm; (5) designing an analog precoding matrix and a digital precoding matrix based on the estimated number of paths and angles of arrival; (6) designing an analog merge vector based on the estimated number of paths and angles of departure; and (7) solving a millimeter wave channel matrix based on the number of paths, the angles of arrival and the angles of departure that are estimated as well as the analog precoding matrix, the digital precoding matrix and the analog merge vector that are designed. By adopting the time-varying channel estimation method disclosed by the invention, the accuracy and spectrum efficiency of the millimeter wave channel estimation can be improved.

Description

[0001] Technical field: [0002] The present invention relates to a method for channel estimation by a receiver when a base station and a mobile terminal perform uplink and downlink communication in a time-varying millimeter wave channel, specifically a method for a millimeter wave multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system A time-varying channel estimation method belongs to the technical field of wireless communication. [0003] Background technique: [0004] In order to meet the requirement of high-speed information transmission, the wireless communication system needs accurate channel state information (CSI). Under the time-varying channel, due to the existence of a large number of unknown channel coefficients, traditional channel estimation methods, such as least squares (LS) method and minimum mean square error (MMSE) method, will lead to huge pilot overhead. A large number of experimental studies have found that as the bandwidth and symbol period of the comm...
