  • Abstract
    If antenna selection in OFDM is done on a per-tone basis, the frequency domain can be exploited to achieve very good performance. However this means that the channel after antenna selection will have discontinuities in the frequency domain. In this paper we present a novel phase precoding that ensures that the channel after antenna selection is smooth enough in the frequency domain for advanced channel estimation. We analyse its performance and show that it is robust to channel estimation and reciprocity errors.
