Channel Estimation Technique for OFDM using an Adaptive Algorithm

Adaptive Algorithm

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is widely considered as a promising choice for future wireless communications systems due to its high-data-rate transmission capability with high bandwidth efficiency.

In OFDM, the entire channel is divided into many  narrow sub  channels, converting  a frequency-selective channel into a collection of  flat  frequency  independent  channels. Moreover, Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) is avoided by the use of Cyclic Prefix (CP). In fact, OFDM has been adopted in digital audio  broadcasting  (DAB),  digital  video broadcasting (DVB), digital subscriber line (DSL),  and  wireless  local  area  network (WLAN). 

At  the  receiver  the  Channel Estimation is used to recover the original information based upon certain estimation algorithm.
