Research Abstract |
For OFDM systems, number, location, and power distribution of pilot symbols are designed based on mean squared channel estimation error. The proposed method is applicable to OFDM-based cognitive radio with any null subcarriers. The sub-optimal location of pilot symbols is given by using cross entropy optimization that is a non-linear optimization technique. Pilot power distribution is determined by solving a convex optimization. Numerical simulations show that the proposed method outperformsthe conventional method.
