Abstract

In wireless communication an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is efficiently used in recent years. The OFDM method in wireless channels can create deep fades, as a result of multipath dispersive spreading. Thus, a channel state information is essential when coherent detection is involved in OFDM system. Therefore, in many coherent communication systems, a good channel estimation method is necessary for OFDM receiver design. And semi-blind channel estimation is one of these good channel estimation methods. Conventionally, a semi-blind channel estimation uses least square (LS) technique. In our paper, we applied the scaled least square (SLS) to enhance the performance of the semi-blind channel estimator. The SLS requires less knowledge of the channel second-order statistics and has improved performance than the LS technique. Simulation results show that the proposed SLS semi-blind channel estimation method enhances the performance reasonably than conventional semi-blind channel estimation.
