Abstract

Space-time channel estimation is essential for communication systems which separate sources in the space domain in addition to time/frequency/code domains. In this paper, we first develop a Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimator for the spatial channel transfer function in the presence of strong interference sources, for 3 different channel scenarios: no multipath, locally scattered multipath, and general multipath case. As expected, the ML estimator, which assumes planar wavefield for the signal, provides superior performance over the ML solution for the general multipath case. In order to maintain the robustness to the scenario, an algorithm for scenario/model determination is developed, and its performance is evaluated via simulations.
