Performance Analysis of Compressive Sensing based LS and MMSE Channel Estimation Algorithm

Abstract

In this paper, the optimality of Compressive Sensing based Least Square (LS-CS) and Compressive Sensing based Minimum Mean Square (MMSE-CS) channel estimation algorithms in Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is investigated for a sparse communication channel. The performance of LS, MMSE, LS-CS and MMSE-CS channel estimation algorithms in terms of sparsity of the channel, compressive sensing and mathematical complexity is investigated and analyzed so that optimum ranges can be recommended.
