Abstract:

A sparsity-adaptive channel estimation algorithm based on compressive sensing was proposed for massive MIMO systems when the number of channel multi-paths was unknown.By exploiting the joint sparsity characteristics of the sub-channels,the proposed block sparsity adaptive matching pursuit (BSAMP) algorithm first selected atoms by setting a threshold and finding the position of the maximum backward difference,which reduces the energy dispersion caused by the non-orthogonality of the observation matrix and improves the performance of the algorithm.Then a regularization method was utilized to improve the stability of the algorithm.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm recovers the channel state information accurately and shows a high computational efficiency.
