Abstract

The invention discloses an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing spread spectrum underwater acoustic communication pilot-free decision feedback channel estimation method under the sparse channel condition. The method comprises the steps that 1) OFDM frequency domain information extraction is performed; 2) the extracted frequency domain information in the step 1) is transmitted to a spread spectrum identification module to perform spread spectrum identification; 3) the spread spectrum identification result of the step 2) is transmitted to a decision feedback loop module, iterative learning of an underwater acoustic communication is performed and the channel is reconstructed; and 4) despreading outputting of the data balanced by using the reconstructed channel is performed. The spread spectrum signal is effectively identified by using the sparse characteristic of the underwater acoustic communication channel, and decision feedback estimation is performed on the underwater acoustic communication channel response by using the identification result so that reliable reconstruction of the underwater acoustic communication channel can be realized, balancing of the underwater acoustic communication signal can be reliably realized without loss of the communication quality and the underwater acoustic communication rate can be effectively enhanced.
