Abstract

The research on channel estimation technology is a core technology for mmWave massive MIMO in 5G wireless communications. This paper proposed a greedy iterative phase retrieval algorithm for channel estimation from received signal strength (RSS) feedback which is common in wireless communication systems and is used to compensate for temporal channels. We consider a Modified Gauss-Newton (MGN) algorithm to approximate the square term of the system model as a linear problem at each iteration and it is embedded in the 2-opt framework for iteration to get the optimal estimation. Our algorithm does not need to modify the system, but only need RSS feedback for channel estimation. The simulation results show that the algorithm performs better than the traditional conventional algorithm.
