In this paper, we tackle channel estimation in millimeter-wave hybrid multiple-input multiple-output systems by considering off-grid effects. In particular, we assume that spatial parameters can take any value in the angular domain, and need not fall on predefined discretized angles. Instead of increasing the number of discretized points to combat off-grid effects, we use implicit Dirichlet kernel structure in the Fourier domain, which conventional compressed sensing methods do not use. We propose greedy low-complexity algorithms based on orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP); our core idea is to traverse the Dirichlet kernel peak using estimates of the discrete Fourier transform. We demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed algorithms compared to standard OMP reconstruction. Numerical results show that our proposed algorithms obtain smaller reconstruction errors when off-grid effects are accounted for.

The spectrum scarcity at sub-6 GHz spectrum has made millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequency band a key component of the next-generation wireless networks. While mmWave spectrum offers extremely large transmission bandwidths to accommodate ever-increasing data rates, unique characteristics of this new spectrum need special consideration to achieve the promised network throughput. In this work, we consider the off-grid problem for mmWave communications, which has a significant impact on basic network functionalities involving beam steering and tracking. The off-grid effect naturally appears in compressed sensing (CS) techniques adopting a discretization approach for representing the angular domain. This approach yields a finite set of discrete angle points, which are an approximation to the continuous angular space, and hence degrade the accuracy of related parameter estimation. In order to cope with the off-grid effect, we present a novel parameter-perturbation framework to efficiently estimate the channel and the covariance for mmWave networks. The proposed algorithms employ a smart perturbation mechanism in conjunction with a low-complexity greedy framework of simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP), and jointly solve for the off-grid parameters and weights. Numerical results show a significant performance improvement through our novel framework as a result of handling the off-grid effects, which is totally ignored in the conventional sparse mmWave channel or covariance estimation algorithms.
In this paper, we develop two high-resolution channel estimation schemes based on the estimating signal parameters via the rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) method for frequency-selective millimeter wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems. The first scheme is based on two-dimensional ESPRIT (TDE), which includes three stages of pilot transmission. This scheme first estimates the angles of arrival (AoA) and angles of departure (AoD) and then pairs the AoA and AoD. The other scheme reduces the pilot transmission from three stages to two stages and therefore reduces the pilot overhead. It is based on one-dimensional ESPRIT and minimum searching (EMS). It first estimates the AoD of each channel path and then searches the minimum from the identified mainlobe. To guarantee the robust channel estimation performance, we also develop a hybrid precoding and combining matrices design method so that the received signal power keeps almost the same for any AoA and AoD. Finally, we demonstrate that the proposed two schemes outperform the existing channel estimation schemes in terms of computational complexity and performance.
This work investigates the problem of spatial covariance matrix estimation in a millimeter-wave (mmWave) hybrid multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with an emphasis on the basis-mismatch effect. The basis mismatch is prevalent in the compressed sensing (CS) schemes which adopt discretization procedure. In such an approach, the algorithm yields a finite discrete point which is an approximation to the continuous parametric space. The quality of this approximation depends on the number of discretized points in the dictionary. Instead of increasing the number of discretized points to combat this off-grid effect, we propose an efficient parameter perturbed framework which uses a controlled perturbation mechanism in conjunction with the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. Numerical results verify the performance improvement through our proposed algorithm in terms of relative efficiency metric, which is basically due to taking care of the off-grid effect carefully that is ignored in the conventional CS algorithms.
A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can shape the radio propagation by passively changing the directions of impinging electromagnetic waves. The optimal control of the RIS requires perfect channel state information (CSI) of all the links connecting the base station (BS) and the mobile station (MS) via the RIS. Thereby the channel (parameter) estimation at the BS/MS and the related message feedback mechanism are needed. In this paper, we adopt a two-stage channel estimation scheme for the RIS-aided millimeter wave (mmWave) MIMO channels using an iterative reweighted method to sequentially estimate the channel parameters. We evaluate the average spectrum efficiency (SE) and the RIS beamforming gain of the proposed scheme and demonstrate that it achieves high-resolution estimation with the average SE comparable to that with perfect CSI.
A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can shape the radio propagation environment by virtue of changing the impinging electromagnetic waves towards any desired directions, thus, breaking the general Snells reflection law. However, the optimal control of the RIS requires perfect channel state information (CSI) of the individual channels that link the base station (BS) and the mobile station (MS) to each other via the RIS. Thereby super-resolution channel (parameter) estimation needs to be efficiently conducted at the BS or MS with CSI feedback to the RIS controller. In this paper, we adopt a two-stage channel estimation scheme for RIS-aided millimeter wave (mmWave) MIMO systems without a direct BS-MS channel, using atomic norm minimization to sequentially estimate the channel parameters, i.e., angular parameters, angle differences, and products of propagation path gains. We evaluate the mean square error of the parameter estimates, the RIS gains, the average effective spectrum efficiency bound, and average squared distance between the designed beamforming and combining vectors and the optimal ones. The results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves super-resolution estimation compared to the existing benchmark schemes, thus offering promising performance in the subsequent data transmission phase.
