Abstract

A non-Cyclic Prefixed Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization (non-CP MIMO-SCFDE) system based on a recursive algorithm of Joint Channel Estimation and Data Detection (recursive-JCEDD) is proposed in this paper. Unlike the traditional CP MIMO-SCFDE system, the transmitted block of the proposed system is designed in the way that block-type pilot sequences and Single-Carrier (SC) information sequences have been arranged alternately without any cyclic prefix before each SC information sequence. Moreover, a recursive-JCEDD algorithm based on interference cancellation is proposed for the corresponding receivers. Simulation results show that the Bit Error Rate (BER) of the proposed system based on the recursive-JCEDD algorithm is lower than traditional CP MIMO-SCFDE or MIMO-OFDM with channel estimation for more than 0.5 dB.
