Abstract

This paper presents a least squares channel estimation for Massive-Multiple-Input Multiple- Output (Massive-MIMO) systems in next generation of wireless communications denominated 5G, combined with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and 64-QAM modulation. In this paper, after determining the estimated channel, we first consider one OFDM symbol and presented the flat fading and the frequency-selective fading in the case when channel taps equal to one and strictly superior to one respectively. In addition to that, we consider the uplink transmission where the transmitter antenna equal to \(N_t=50\) and a Base Station (BS) equipped with several antenna superior to that of transmitter, in the same way the data detected using a linear detectors Zero-Forcing and Minimum Mean Square Error. Moreover we improve their performance by an ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) method. Using two channels fading namely the Rayleigh and the Ricain respectively and evaluate their performance with a system of Massive-MIMO antenna. Increasing the number of channel taps increase the inter-symbol interference allows to degrade the performance of the system both the Rayleigh and Rician channel, even we used a pilot sequence equipowered, equispaced and phase shift orthogonal. Hence increasing the number of antennas arrays at the receiver (i.e BS) decreases more the Bit Error Rate, consequently increasing the performance of the system. the OSIC methods provide a best performance when the number of antenna grow in a smaller range of Signal-to-Noise Ratio.
