Abstract :
A time-varying channel estimation method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is presented. The proposed method makes use of two asymmetric pilot symbols to improve channel estimation performance and meanwhile obtain a reasonable pilot overhead. Complete simulations illustrate that the proposed method can have precise estimation result even under very large normalized Doppler frequency.
