Abstract :
It is well known that time domain channel estimation can achieve better performance than frequency domain channel estimation with a time-multiplexed preamble in common OFDM systems. When it is applied to UWB/OFDM systems, however, its high complexity becomes the main obstacle because of the large number of resolvable paths. To solve this problem, a low-complexity channel estimation scheme is presented by exploiting a special construction of complementary sequence pairs.
