CHANNEL ESTIMATION USING COMPOSITE SUBCARRIERS AND COMBINED PILOTS
Techniques for minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) channel estimator using channel-dependent composite subcarriers and combined pilots reduce computational complexity and memory usage while still achieving near optimum performance. A set of interpolation filters, that are pre-calculated for different radio propagation environments, e.g., channel state information, are stored in look up tables at the receiver and used to interpolate channel estimates for combined pilots to obtain channel estimates for individual subcarriers.
ONLINE SPUR DETECTION AND MITIGATION
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may perform online spur detection and mitigation scheme. The UE may identify spurs during operation, in real time, and apply cancelation and noise equalization to address identified spurs. The UE may apply a high pass filter to reference signals. During a symbol, the UE may apply the high pass filter by estimating the channel on one or more neighbor tones (e.g., tones of higher frequency and tones of lower frequency that also carry reference symbols). Because the UE may assume that a channel will generally be smooth, and that noise may vary slowly or steadily across frequency resources, the UE may compare the channel noise of a particular tone to an average or normalized channel noise of the one or more neighbor tones.

Processing signals to account for multipath-reflection phenomena in RF communications
Aspects of the present disclosure may involve use of a radio frequency receiver and in such a receiver, tracking multipath gains and delays of multipath reflections corresponding to an OFDM multipath transmission channel. The gains and delays are based on time-domain evolution of the channel impulse response. Multipath reflections are searched for and then used to calculate channel correlation information to provide channel estimations to aid in mitigating or cancelling distortion of the received signal.
Communication apparatus and reference signal reception method
Disclosed are a wireless transmitter and a reference signal transmission method that improve channel estimation accuracy. In a terminal, which transmits a reference signal using n (n is a non-negative integer 2 or greater) band blocks (which correspond to clusters here), which are disposed with spaces therebetween in a frequency direction, a reference signal controller switches the reference signal formation method of a reference signal generator between a first formation method and a second formation method based on the number (n) of band blocks. In addition, a threshold value setting unit adjusts a switching threshold value based on the frequency spacing between band blocks. Thus, the reference signal formation method can be selected with good accuracy and, as a result, channel estimation accuracy is further improved.
