Abstract
This paper presents a low-complexity channel estimation procedure which is suitable for use in energy-efficient NB-IoT user equipment devices. The procedure is based on the well-established least squares scheme, followed by linear interpolation in the time domain and averaging in the frequency domain. The quality of channel estimation vs. signal-to-noise ratio is evaluated for two channel models and compared with the performance of channel estimation function implemented in the Matlab LTE Toolbox. The computational complexities of both implementations are assessed by measuring the average processing times required to obtain channel estimates for a given number of consecutive downlink frames. The results indicate that the proposed method provides a similar quality of channel estimation with considerably shorter processing time compared to its counterpart.
