JOINT ESTIMATION OF COMMUNICATION CHANNEL EFFECTS IN COMMUNICATION RECEIVERS
A receiver signal is sampled at a sampling rate equivalent to a chip rate at which chips of a known signal are timed. The resulting receiver signal samples are segmented into receiver signal segments, which are filtered by respective matched filters that are matched to known signal segments segmented from the known signal. Indexes are assigned to elements of the resulting filter response sequences to define an array thereof. Frequency transforms are computed of elements of the filter response sequences in respective columns of the array. Indexes are assigned to elements of the resulting frequency response sequences to define another array thereof. Channel effects imparted on a radio signal are jointly estimated from characteristics of the other array at which at least one local maximum is located.
