Abstract :
In this paper, an adaptive window length estimation for channel estimation in direct-sequence (DS) code-division multiple-access (CDMA) receivers is presented. The estimated optimum window length is derived based on autocovariance analysis of the estimated channel coefficients. As the propagation channel changes over time, an adaptive algorithm for updating the window length is proposed through Doppler and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimations. The proposed system improves the performance by adaptively selecting and continuously updating the window lengths over a wide-range of velocities (5 to 400 kmph).
