Abstract:
In this article, an algorithm for joint estimation of communication channel gains and signal distortions in a direct conversion receiver is proposed. The received signal model uses approximations with a small number of parameters to reduce the computational complexity of the resulting algorithm. The estimation algorithm is obtained under the assumption of a priori uncertainty about the characteristics of the communication channel and noise distribution using the linear least squares method. Estimation is performed first by the test sequence, then by the information symbols obtained after detection. In addition, an analysis of the noise immunity of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signal reception is carried out using different approximating structures in the estimation algorithm for systems with a single transmitting and receiving antenna (SISO) and for systems with multiple transmitting and receiving antennas (MIMO). Furthermore, this article examines the influence of the duration of the test signal, the number of sessions of its transmission, and the channel extrapolation interval on the quality of signal reception.
