Abstract:

This paper presents a hybrid channel estimator for multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing mmWave systems based on the sparse nature of the angular channel and leveraging the compressed sensing (CS) tools. The angular support is recovered without any discretization by treating the angular channel in a continuous framework which resolves the limited angular resolution of the discrete sparse channel models used in the previous CS-based channel estimators. The power leakage problem is also addressed by modeling the continuous angular channel as a multi-band signal with the bandwidth of each sub-band being proportional to the amount of power leakage caused by the limited antenna array length. The RF combiner is implemented using a network of low-power switches for antenna subset selection based on a multi-coset sampling pattern. Simulation results validate the low reconstruction error and good performance of the proposed channel estimator.
