Abstract :
In this paper, we present a method of transform-domain channel estimation for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The estimator based on minimum mean squared error (MMSE), and a process of FFT and IFFT is added. The system has been tested in a real underwater acoustic channel - the experimental pool in Xiamen University. The experimental result shows that the transform-domain channel estimation has improved the performance of the OFDM system in underwater acoustic channels.
