Channel Estimation for mmWave MIMO-OFDM Systems in High-Mobility Scenarios

In this paper, we investigate the channel estimation for mmWave multiple-input multiple-output-(MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in high-mobility scenarios. By leveraging the low-rank nature of mmWave channels and the multidimensional characteristics of MIMO-OFDM signals across space, time, and frequency, the received signals are structured as a fourth-order tensor that fits a low-rank CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) model. We propose an estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT)type decomposition-based method to solve the CP decomposition, which exploits the Vandermonde structure of the factor matrix. The channel parameters are then estimated from the factor matrices. Simulation results show that our method outperforms existing benchmarks.
