In this paper, the problem of channel estimation in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems over fast time-varying channel is investigated by using a Basis Expansion Model (BEM). Regarding the effects of the Gibbs phenomenon in the BEM, we propose a new method to alleviate it and reduce the modeling error. Theoretical analysis and detail comparison results show that the proposed BEM method can provide improved modeling error compared with other BEMs such as CE-BEM and GCE-BEM. In addition, instead of using the frequency-domain Kronecker delta structure, a new clustered pilot structure is proposed to enhance the estimation performance further. The new clustered pilot structure can effectively reduce the inter-carrier interference especially in the case of high Doppler spreads.
This letter studies the problem of cooperative spectrum sensing in wideband cognitive radio networks. Based on the basis expansion model (BEM), the problem of estimation of power spectral density (PSD) is transformed to estimation of BEM coefficients. The sparsity both in frequency domain and space domain is used to construct a sparse estimation structure. The theory of L1/2 regularization is used to solve the compressed sensing problem. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
In this letter, we focus on the selection of the BEM order in the doubly-selective channel estimation. Based on the Jakes' channel model, we take into account the channel spectrum spread caused by observation window effects and the channel estimation error, and propose a method of selecting the optimal BEM order in the sense of minimum mean square error.

To take intercarrier interference (ICI) attributed to time variations of the channel into consideration, the time- and frequency-selective (doubly-selective) channel is parameterized by a finite parameter model. By capitalizing on the finite parameter model to approximate the doubly-selective channel, a Kalman filter is developed for channel estimation. The ICI suppressing, reduced-complexity Viterbi-type Maximum Likelihood (RML) equalizer is incorporated into the Kalman filter for recursive channel tracking and equalization to improve the system performance. An enhancement in the channel tracking ability is validated by theoretical analysis, and a significant improvement in BER performance using the channel estimates obtained by the recursive channel estimation method is verified by Monte-Carlo simulations.
