Motivation 1 • OFDM and MIMO in current and future wireless communcaitons [1] • One key problem: pilot overhead is high[2] ~25% in LTE-A !
Motivation 2 • Cyclic prefix OFDM (CP- OFDM) • Use cyclic prefix (CP) to alleviate IBI • Frequency-domain pilots for channel estimation • Time domain synchronous OFDM (TDS-OFDM) [3] • Use known training sequence (e.g., PN) to alleviate IBI • No pilotincrease the spectral efficiency by about 10% • Key technology of international DTV standard DTMB [4] • Hard to be extended to MIMO systems due to interferences [5] OFDM Block PN Data Data interferences 4

Conclusions • In this paper, we propose a spectrally efficient TFT-OFDM transmission scheme for MIMO systems • Each TFT-OFDM symbol has training information in both time and frequency domains, and the frequency-domain grouped pilots occupy much fewer pilots than that in standard OFDM MIMO systems • This is achieved by the joint time-frequency channel estimation scheme, whereby the path delays are firstly acquired by the time-domain training sequence without interference cancellation, while the path gains are acquired by by the substantially reduced number of frequency-domain pilots. • TFT-OFDM can easily extend TDS-OFDM in MIMO scenarios, and increase the spectral efficiency of CP-OFDM MIMO by about 17% • Two-domain processing outperforms one-domain processing • .
