Abstract

In this paper, a new scheme of Joint Channel Estimation and Partial Parallel Interference Cancellation using Simulating Annealing (SA) or Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms is proposed. This scheme is proposed for multiuser Multiple-Input Multiple-Output /Space Division Multiple Access (MIMO-SDMA) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed scheme tries to reduce the cancellation error in Conventional Parallel Interference Cancellation (CPIC) detection schemes used in MIMO SDMA-OFDM system. The SA and PSO algorithms are employed in searching the optimal weights of the PPIC for multiple access interference cancellation. The proposed scheme is shown to provide a performance improvement as compared to MMSE and CPIC detectors especially in an overloaded scenario where number of users is high as compared to the Base Station (BS) antennas. In this scenario, channel estimation becomes more challenging, owing to the increased number of independent transmitter-receiver links to be estimated and the constraint imposed by the rank of the MIMO channel matrix. The proposed scheme provides a reasonable solution to the multiuser MIMO channel estimation problem and multiuser detection in the above-mentioned overloaded scenario.
