Channel Estimation for LTE downlink
description In LTE system, supporting high mobile user speed is one of the key of requirements. However, the channel variation in different mobility scenarios is a significant challenge to achieving this goal. The channel estimation is required at the receiver part to satisfy the good performance with channel variation. In this master thesis, I use the different estimators to estimate the channel at the LTE Downlink system with different scenarios. The LS block fading estimator use at low mobility where the channel is statistic during one subframe. When the user speed more than 20 km/h the LS block estimation degrade in MSE and throughput performance. The LS fast fading outperforms the LS block fading at the velocity more than 25 km/h.
