Abstract(in English) In this report, we propose a new scheme in order to implement an MMSE channel estimator for OFDM systems. We know that the time domain least squares method can be applied for highly accurate impulse response estimation by using a time domain long preamble of an OFDM frame. On the other hand, the impulse response estimation based on the MMSE criterion can achieve superior channel estimation in low SNR conditions; however, it requires prior information such as a covariance matrix of the channel, and the computational complexity for inverse matrix calculation becomes large. In order to overcome these implementation issues, we propose to estimate the statistical values based on the observed information of the channel. In addition, we show that we can suppress the increase of the computational complexity for the matrix inverse calculation by applying the conjugate gradient method while achieving the same performance with the ideal MMSE approach.
