We propose an optimal training-based OFDM channel impulse response (CIR) estimation algorithm that addresses the phase noise (PHN) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) problem. If left unattended, these combined problems severely degrade the accuracy of the channel estimate and ultimately the quality of the wireless link. The solution involves the joint optimization of a complete log-likelihood function over the unknown CIR, PHN and CFO. To reduce the complexity of the proposed algorithm, a simplification based on the conjugate gradient method is introduced, yielding an efficient realization using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) with only minor performance degradation |
