Sumario: | Channel estimation (CE) is a field of study that has garnered much attention during recent years. CE plays an important role in developing channel equalizers. There are many approaches to CE, among which there are orthogonal codes (OC) and orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBC). Also, complementary codes (CC) have been under investigation for multiple-input, multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) CE. There are zero side-lobe levels in a CC signal’s autocorrelation function. The initial area of application of these signals has been radar systems, and they were used as optimal phase-coding signals. These signals require the use of two different channels to transmit the twofold components of the pilot code. Thus, this research introduces the two-sided CE (TSCE), where separate subcarrier locations are used to carry the two pilot CCs. Equalization errors can occur in dangerous situations, in case a system is interfered with or jammed. This leads to negative impacts on the accuracy of channel estimation. This situation specifically occurs when a harsh Doppler spread is present, as a result of a deterioration in the orthogonality of the subcarriers of the OFDM. Certain conditions were applied for testing the performance of the method suggested in this paper, i.e., the MIMO-OFDM TSCE approach, the method that depends on CCs. These conditions are the Doppler spread, as well as partial-band jamming. Among the different MIMO-OFDM CE techniques, TSCC-CE has shown good performance, with its ability to withstand the effect of partial-band jamming on the accuracy of the MIMO-OFDM CE. This improved performance takes place in the presence of a Doppler spread of moderate value and a partial-band jamming ratio. |
