Zusammenfassung: | Embodiments herein include a method of channel estimation in a wireless communication node. The method comprises generating, based on samples of a received signal, initial estimates of a plurality of channel coefficients forming a channel response. The method also entails, for each of the channel coefficients, dynamically calculating a coefficient-specific filter span for that channel coefficient. Notably, the coefficient-specific filter span for any given channel coefficient is calculated according to a closed-form function that minimizes aggregated estimation noise for the channel coefficient and estimation bias attributable to errors in tracking the channel coefficient. The method finally includes adapting filtering of the initial estimates independently for each of the channel coefficients to be performed over the coefficient-specific filter span calculated for that channel coefficient. |
