Abstract:
Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation outperforms orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in high-mobility scenarios. One challenge for OTFS massive MIMO is downlink channel estimation due to the large number of base station antennas. In this paper, we propose a 3D-structured orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm based channel estimation technique to solve this problem. First, we show that the OTFS MIMO channel exhibits 3D-structured sparsity: normal sparsity along the delay dimension, block sparsity along the Doppler dimension, and burst sparsity along the angle dimension. Based on the 3D-structured channel sparsity, we then formulate the downlink channel estimation problem as a sparse signal recovery problem. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve accurate channel state information with low pilot overhead.
