Abstract:
A method and device for channel estimation are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of classifying sub-vectors of a decorrelated sample signal in a channel into two subsets, determining centers of the two subsets, and estimating a channel vector of the channel according to the determined centers of the subsets. The method can be implemented by the device. The method and device can only utilize a first-order statistic information of the received signal to perform the accumulate operation with an amount of calculation much less than that of other effective blind estimation algorithms, and are particularly suitable for implementation by logic circuits. Furthermore, satisfactory estimation accuracy can be obtained by only using a very short data frame.
