Performance evaluation of channel estimation approaches for CDMA2000
Xiaohu You · Journal of Circuits and Systems · 2005
In CDMA2000 standard, the pilot channel is time-multiplexed with power control bits and is not continuous. Four channel estimation approaches such as repeat using, adjusting with estimation (with amelioration) and linear interpolation are studied for this case. The average BER performance of the proposed ameliorated adjusting with estimation approach is near that of the continuous pilot channel and the proposed linear interpolation even exceeds that of the continuous pilot channel.
