This paper presents a hybrid position estimation technique that is based on the integration of Fingerprinting (FP), Time-of-flight (ToF), and Trilateration approach. When empirical channel models are used with Ultra Wideband (UWB) systems, there are plenty of challenges that must be taken into consideration due to their dependence on frequency. Thus, when the position of a Blind Node (BLN) is estimated...
In this paper, we address the problem of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) channel estimation in the presence of phase noise (PHN) and carrier frequency offset (CFO). In OFDM systems, PHN and CFO cause two effects: the common phase error (CPE) and the intercarrier interference (ICI) which severely degrade the accuracy of the channel estimate. In literature, several algorithms have...
In this paper, we study bandwidth management of a wireless/optical based access/metro network in support of voice and data services. For voice services, we use a finite state Markov Chain to estimate the blocking probability of voice circuits over an Adaptive modulation and coding wireless channel, as a function of the channel parameters. For data services, we evaluate a rate matching and a buffer...
Effects of improved channel estimation are studied for a proposed IEEE 802.11n OFDM MIMO system. Three channel estimation methods are considered: maximum likelihood (ML), time-domain truncation (TDT) and model-based (MB). TDT and MB are particularly useful when the channel delay spread is short. For an MMSE receiver, MB shows a 1-2.5 dB improvement over ML on the packet error rate performance for...
