Outline • Introduction • Channel State Information generation • Viterbi decoder using CSI • Some simulation result • Conclusion Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
Frequency selective fading Spectrum efficiency Introduction • Single carrier system ?? • Multi carrier system ?? • OFDM ! Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
Channel State Information • Often defined as SNR in a carrier position • Different reliability depends on different subcarriers • Used as the input of soft decision decoder Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
CSI generation ~ conv. • In conventional Channel estimation part of equalizer Signal power Signal power (SNR) Noise power Pilot carrier positions Noise power Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
: the reference value of pilot at position carrier k : the channel response of k : noise component CSI generation ~ MSE(1/2) FFT output as follows Block diagram of OFDM receiver Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
CSI generation ~ MSE(2/2) estimated equalized output of the kth pilot carrier position ~ where is the estimated value of the channel response The MSE of is estimated as follows If , equation above becomes ~ inverse SNR !! Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
Viterbi decoder using CSI • In conventional, all branch metrics are calculated by the equal weighting • Here, we added the CSI into the BMC block as the different weighting of different subcarriers • Therefore Block diagram of Viterbi decoder Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
Demapping reliability example 16-QAM constellation mappings and the corresponding bit patterns Metric of the certainty of each decision. 16-QAM, a) 1st or 2nd bit, b)3rd or 4th bit Wireless Communication Lab. CGU

Conclusion • The CSI of each subcarriers will be obtained by using interpolation between the pilots • CSI is often defined as SNR • Use the MSE to obtained the inverse SNR • More quantization bit earns better performance Wireless Communication Lab. CGU
