In-Depth Information
a data-dependent component is added to the superimposed training such that interfer-
ence due to data (information sequence) is greatly reduced in channel estimation at the
receiver. This method is applicable to time-invariant channels only, and it requires “data
blocking” for block transmissions and insertion of a cyclic prefix in each data block. Its
extension to a class of time-variant channels is given in [59]. The UTRA specification
for third-generation (3G) systems [21] allows for a spread pilot (superimposed) sequence
in the base station's common pilot channel, suitable for downlinks. Periodic superim-
posed training for channel estimation via first-order statistics for SISO systems has been
discussed in [39, 41, 57, 58, 63]. In [8], performance bounds for training and superim-
posed training-based semiblind SISO channel estimation for time-varying flat fading
channels have been discussed.
Suppose that the superimposed training sequence c ( n ) = c ( n + mP ) ∀ m , n is a non-
random periodic sequence with period P . Since c ( n ) is P periodic, we have

Suppose that we use the Slepian (DPS) sequences u q ( n ) (≡ϕ q ( n )) in the BEM. Then, by
