Abstract
En 中文
In this paper, we consider the uplink channel parameter estimation problem in the presence of pilot contamination for massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We propose a parallel factor (PARAFAC)-based estimation scheme, which exploits the low-rank property of massive MIMO channels caused by the finite scattering in a physical environment. Specifically, we first parameterize the channel in terms of three parameters, i.e., fading coefficients, directions of arrival (DOAs), and delays; thereby, the channel is characterized via three equivalent PARAFAC models. Then, the proposed PARAFAC-based scheme is developed, which jointly estimates these three channel parameters using an alternating least squares (ALS) algorithm. Therein, we certify the identifiability of the three channel parameters of the PARAFAC models to mitigate the pilot contamination and state the convergence of the ALS algorithm, which guarantees that the three channel parameters can be uniquely determined with the proposed scheme. Moreover, to further reduce the computational complexity, two advanced schemes are proposed by antenna selection and reducing the estimation frequency of DOAs and delays, respectively. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes can achieve both low computational complexities and close to optimal Cramer-Rao Bound performance.
