Introduction • The exact maximum-likelihood (ML) solution to this problem is prohibitively complex since it demands a search over a multidimensional space. • We resort to the alternating-projection algorithm and propose a simpler scheme, in which CFOs are estimated sequentially instead of jointly.
CFO Estimation • A. ML Estimation the log-likelihood function for the unknown parameters ω and ξ takes the form
CFO Estimation Then, we see that is maximum when
CFO Estimation • B. Iterative Estimation via Alternating Projection Based on alternating projection techniques, the multidimensional maximization problem in is split into a series of simpler 1-D searches.
CFO Estimation The resulting procedure consists of cycles and steps. A cycle is made of K steps. whereis used to indicate the functional dependence of on
CFO Estimation • C. Alternating-Projection Frequency Estimator (APFE) Computing requires a matrix inversion of order KNg for each value of
CFO Estimation Note that computing demands the inversion of a matrix of dimension Ng×Ng, which is significantly smaller than that required to compute .
CFO Estimation • D. Approximate APFE (AAPFE) Inspection of (20) reveals that computing still requires a matrix inversion of dimension for each value of . Sinceis independent of , we can approximate the quantity using the von Neumann series truncated to the Mth order term.
CFO Estimation • This leads to a significant reduction of the system complexity, since we only need one matrix inversion for each user, irrespective of the cycle number.
Estimationofthetimingoffsets and channel responses Resort to an ML-based scheme and exploit the CFO estimate provided by either APFE or AAPFE. The ML estimates μof h' and could be obtained by searching for the minimum of
Estimationofthetimingoffsets and channel responses First minimizewith respect to , which leads to Then, substituting (27) back into (26) and minimizing with respect to , we obtain
Estimationofthetimingoffsets and channel responses • The multidimensional maximization problem in (28) can be efficiently solved by resorting to the alternating-projection technique. This results in a scheme called the alternating-projection timing estimator (APTE). • After is computed using APTE, it is employed in (27) to estimate the users’ channel responses as

Conclusion • The frequency estimates were obtained using an ML approach, and the alternating-projection algorithm was employed to circumvent the maximization of the likelihood function over a multidimensional space. • The proposed schemes exhibit improved performance and provide more flexibility, as they can be used in conjunction with any subcarrier allocation strategy. It is fair to say that the above advantages are obtained at the price of a certain increase of the system complexity.
