Broadband low-voltage power line communication (PLC) has many advantages including less investment cost, construction speed, and convenient access. Since the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology has strong anti-jamming and anti-frequency selective fading characteristics naturally it becomes a better low voltage power line communication solution. We proposed an OFDM channel estimation method based on compressed sensing (CS) technique according to the channel characteristics of low-voltage power lines. CS algorithm in OFDM system was discussed and an orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm was applied to reconstruct the PLC channel information. The simulation results showed that the communication channel estimation method based on CS technique was feasible in PLC system, and the validity of information transmission in OFDM systems can be enhanced.

Pilot contamination is the reuse of pilot signals, which is a bottleneck in massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems as it varies directly with the numerous antennas, which are utilized by massive MIMO. This adversely impacts the channel state information (CSI) due to too large pilot overhead outdated feedback CSI. To solve this problem, a compressed sensing scheme is used. The existing algorithms based on compressed sensing require that the channel sparsity should be known, which in the real channel environment is not the case. To deal with the unknown channel sparsity of the massive MIMO channel, this paper proposes a structured sparse adaptive coding sampling matching pursuit (SSA-CoSaMP) algorithm that utilizes the space–time common sparsity specific to massive MIMO channels and improves the CoSaMP algorithm from the perspective of dynamic sparsity adaptive and structural sparsity aspects. It has a unique feature of threshold-based iteration control, which in turn depends on the SNR level. This approach enables us to determine the sparsity in an indirect manner. The proposed algorithm not only optimizes the channel estimation performance but also reduces the pilot overhead, which saves the spectrum and energy resources. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has improved channel performance compared with the existing algorithm, in both low SNR and low pilot overhead.

Compressive sensing based channel estimation has shown its advantage of accurate reconstruction for sparse signal with less pilots for OFDM systems. However, high computational cost requirement of CS method, due to linear programming, significantly restricts its implementation in practical applications. In this paper, we propose a reduced complexity channel estimation scheme of modified orthogonal matching pursuit with sliding windows for ISDB-T (Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting for Terrestrial) system. The proposed scheme can reduce the computational cost by limiting the searching region as well as making effective use of the last estimation result. In addition, adaptive tracking strategy with sliding sampling window can improve the robustness of CS based methods to guarantee its accuracy of channel matrix reconstruction, even for fast time-variant channels. The computer simulation demonstrates its impact on improving bit error rate and computational complexity for ISDB-T system.
