Interference-Precancelled Pilot Design for LMMSE Channel Estimation of GFDM

Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is a promising candidate waveform for next-generation wireless communication systems. However, GFDM channel estimation is still challenging due to the inherent interference. In this paper, we formulate a pilot design framework with linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) channel estimation for GFDM, and propose a novel pilot design to achieve interference precancellation during pilot generation with the fixed transmit sample values at selected frequency bins. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method reduces the channel estimation mean square error and the symbol error rate (SER) in high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions, compared with the conventional methods.

Frequency-Domain Decoupling for MIMO-GFDM Spatial Multiplexing

Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is considered a non-orthogonal waveform and known to encounter difficulties when using in the spatial multiplexing mode of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) scenario. In this paper, a class of GFDM prototype filters, under which the GFDM system is free from inter-subcarrier interference, is investigated, enabling frequency-domain decoupling in the processing at the GFDM receiver. An efficient MIMO-GFDM detection method based on depth-first sphere decoding is then proposed with such class of filters. Numerical results confirm a significant reduction in complexity, especially when the number of subcarriers is large, compared with existing methods presented in recent years.
