VLSI Implementation of Least Square Channel Estimation and QPSK Modulation Technique for 2×2 MIMO System

Future Wireless communication systems have to be designed to integrate features such as high data rates, high quality of service and multimedia in the existing communication framework. Increased demand in wireless communication systems has led to the demand for higher network capacity and performance. Higher bandwidth, optimized modulation offer practically limited potential to increase the spectral efficiency. Hence MIMO systems utilizes space multiplex by using array of antenna’s for enhancing the efficiency at particular utilized bandwidth. MIMO use multiple inputs multiple outputs for a single channel.

Design of Modulation Technique for MIMO System

MIMO describes the ways to send data from multiple users on the same frequency/time channel using multiple antennas at the transmitter and receiver end. MIMO hold the potential of dramatically increasing the data rates and spectral efficiency of wireless communication system. The growth in the wireless communication led to the demand for higher network capacity and performance. The wireless channel is more unpredictable as compared with wireline channels because of multipath, shadow fading, doppler spread and time dispersion. Future Wireless communication systems have to be designed to integrate features such as high data rates, high quality of service and multimedia in the existing communication framework. Hence MIMO systems utilizes different techniques to reduce the effect of noise, fading, ISI etc. The main aim of this project is to demonstrate the working of a MIMO system which is carried till backend of the VLSI flow.

It challenges the channel estimaton technique a lot and there are two tough problems in front of us, they are multipath fading channel and bandwidth efficiency. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique changed the frequency selective multipath fading channels into flat fading channel in frequency domain, which effectively mitigates the effects of multipath propogation and, hence, increases data rate. We summarize and analyse the exciting channel estimation methods in mimoofdm system. In this paper, we propose a new hardware implementation of channel estimation for MIMO-OFDM. Our target is to minimize hardware resource utilization. At first, proper algorithm is chosen in consideration of hardware feature as well as communication theory for fast proto typing. Based on the algorithm, our architecture performs channel estimation by simple calculation logic without redundancy. Theoretical analysis and numerical results show that the new channel estimation scheme can offer a good performance and a high ability to track the time varying channel.

Prof ECE Department CMR Institute of Technology, Bangalore reliability and diversity can be increased along with the stability for multi-path signals. Future wireless communication system have to be designed to integrate features such as high data rates, high quality of service and multimedia in the existing communication framework. Increased demand in wireless communication system has led to demand for higher network capacity and performance. Higher bandwidth, optimized modulation offer practically limited potential to increase the spectral efficiency. Hence MIMO systems utilizes space multiplex by using array of antenna's for enhancing the efficiency at particular utilized bandwidth. MIMO use multiple inputs multiple outputs from single channel. These systems defined by spectral diversity and spatial multiplexing. The aim of this paper is to design and implement of channel estimation method and modulation technique for MIMO system. The design specifications are obtained using MATLAB. The RTL coding is carried for the design to be implemented on Xilinx FPGA. Next generation broadband wireless communications systems will be based on multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) [1] in order to deliver constantly increasing multimedia contents. MIMO-OFDM is a promising technique due to its different modulation schemes, implementation flexibility and robustness against channel frequency selectivity. In order to achieve a preset quality of service in MIMO-OFDM systems, channel estimation and detection techniquesare mandatory. In the literature, depending on the type of MIMO-OFDM system, several channel estimation and detection techniques have been proposed [2][3]. Bit error rate (BER) and implementation complexity are the main performance aspects when comparing their performances. In [2], reduced complexity single-input single-output OFDM (SISO-OFDM) channel estimation techniques have been proposed minimum mean square error (MMSE). The same procedure has been applied also to least squares (LS) type leading to an improvement in performance with a little increase in complexity. In this paper, an extension of these algorithms has been applied to MIMO-OFDM systems. Moreover, a rapid prototyping of these channel estimation techniques is proposed in order to compare hardware resources needed in case of FPGA implementations of these algorithms. The rest of the paper is organized as follows: in section 2, the SISO-OFDM and MIMO-OFDM systems are

The objective of this work is to study and improve the transmission and reception of this MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) systems technology in a multi -carrier OFDM context (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex), which enables a frequency-selective channel into multiple non-selective channels. The combination of MIMO and OFDM allows exploiting the benefits of the two methods: the strength of binding on frequency-selective channels for OFDM and robustness on uncorrelated in space for the MIMO channel coding. For different configurations of multi-antenna systems SISO, SIMO and MIMO, a comparative study is made between them. This study shows that the MIMO configuration associated with the OFDM technique provides a significant performance improvement compared to other case studies.

With the increase in wireless technological development, there is a need for innovative designed to integrate features such as high data rates, high quality of service and multimedia in the existing communication framework. In wireless systems, radio signals are corrupted due to fading, interference and noise. In order to handle the effects of fading and interference, modern systems employ various techniques including multi-antenna transceivers. Initially, multi-antenna systems were proposed only for point-point communication. MIMO system contain multiple input multiple output from m transmitters and n receivers. Using Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems we can reduce the effect of fading and noise in the channel. Multiple signals are transmitted from different antennas at the transmitter using the same frequency and separated in space. Received signal in MIMO system is usually distorted by multipath fading. In order to recover the transmitted signal correctly, channel effect must be estimated and repaired at receiver. Various channel estimation techniques are employed in order to judge the physical effects of the medium present. Hence MIMO systems utilizes space multiplex by using array of antenna’s for enhancing the efficiency at particular utilized bandwidth. MIMO use multiple inputs multiple outputs from single channel. These systems defined by spectral diversity and spatial multiplexing. The aim of this paper is to design and implement of channel estimation method and modulation technique for MIMO system.
